The song or the video or both? Don't care about videos but the song has grown on me. Love it now although the lyric is a bit annoying. I don't like the way he say 'never easy' insted of 'is never easy'. Just sounds sloppy.

I haven't listened to much of R.E.M, I've only hear some of the classics. I do really want to get into them, so what albums should I start with?

The early ones from the 80's. You'll get to hear the raw sound that made them so great. So Chronic Town (that's an EP, just a few really great songs on there), Murmur, Reckoning, Fables of the Reconstruction, and Lifes Rich Pageant. Then you can move on from there.

was about to put on Around the Sun just now

wasn't really in the mood for it and listening to Beck's Guerolito now

Only the best band ever in my opinion... If that is the point of this board!

Scottsy! Where the heck have you been man? Great to see you around again!

"Lifes Rich Pageant" got me hooked the "Green" rocked my ass

R.E.M. is alright. I wouldn't say they're "bad", but they're definetly not the best. I only listen to their songs when I'm in that type of mood. As a matter of fact, when I was in 5th grade, I used to catch myself singing The One I Love.

Out of Time and Document are pretty good albums. Besides that I'm not really big on them anymore. They're not a bad band but.
