Honestly, Microsoft Train Simulator didn't excite me as much as I thought it would. Sure, it was fun and I loved playing it, but ... it was lacking something.
Railroad Tycoon II, on the other hand, is made of shitloads of SuperWin.

If I'm in the right mood, I LOVE the song Shiny Happy People.
It would not make a list of my top 50 R.E.M. songs but, yeah, I enjoy it.
Yeah, in some moods it'd seem obnoxious, but right now I'm bored and it's fun and I bloody well enjoyed it.
And god, a top 10 list would be hard enough!

I don't think I even KNOW 50 REM songs
Oh wow. You should get on that.
R.E.M. is one of my favorite bands of all-time, for sure.
I either own or have downloaded all 14 of their studio albums. And I enjoy all of them. Some more than others, obviously.
My top 5 R.E.M. albums would look something like:
1. Automatic For the People
2. Life's Rich Pageant
3. Document
4. Murmur
5. Reckoning/Fables of the Reconstruction (tied)

Personally, I have all the eighties albums apart from Life's Rich Pageant (which I just downloaded), Automatic, and Monster. I'd probably give my top five as:
1. Fables Of The Reconstruction
2. Reckoning
3. Document
4. Automatic For The People
5. Green
#1 and #2 are solid, but beyond that, I'm really not sure. Monster is shit besides What's The Frequency.

The only R.E.M. I own is the Best of 1988-2003 or some similar combination.
I know that solely as part of NYC and a song by Dream Theater.

Gordon Ramsey is made of win. That's all I have to say.

Monster has some definite weak moments but I enjoy it more than the trio of albums that immediately followed drummer Bill Berry's departure: Up, Reveal, and the close-to-terrible Around the Sun.
The one that came out this year, Accelerate, was fun...if a little light. But nothing will match their run from 82 to 92. Great stuff there.
I don't know who that is, though Simon Cowell and Jeremy Clarkson were making fun of him on Top Gear last night.

Right now, I'm just downloading the parts of REM's discography that I don't already have. Should be interesting to see what I make of the post-Berry stuff, as I've only heard a couple of songs from then. They didn't seem bad, though.
For me, very little is going to top tracks 1-3 of Fables and 3-5 of Reckoning.

I hope you enjoy your further ventures into the R.E.M. catalogue.
But it's past 3 a.m. in my part of the world so I'm gonna fall asleep soon.
But, just to make this clear, do you crazy Superthread kids do this every night? And, if you don't mind me prying, is that why you have over 53,000 posts Axver???
Hey Kim!
I've been meaning to explore more for ages - don't know why I haven't gotten around to it until now. Looking forward to discovering more.
And yeah, pretty much. It's insanity here. You're spot on: I have made over 20,000 posts in the Superthreads in their four months of existence.

Hey Kim!
I thought of you today when I was wandering around the labyrinth known as Middlemore Hospital.

I just realized that I can't get to sleep yet.
But, Axver, wow...you've never heard Lifes Rich Pageant? I hope that you've at least heard the opening track Begin the Begin. It is in my top 10 R.E.M. tracks of all-time.
Brilliant album.
I guess if you haven't heard it yet you are about to. tell us what you think...
Ah, yeah, here it is: dizrythmia dot com
I've updated my copy to include Craggy Island if you'd like to know those totals.

Hey Kim!
Why were you in Middlemore? Pfft, it's piss easy to find your way around there...... 
Fables and Reckoning are my two favourites. Feeling Gravity's Pull has got to be one of the finest album openers anybody's ever made.

I can't look at it now cos my pc's shite, I'll have to use the work pc for that
but seriously Khanada did a spreadsheet?Yeah, I'm kind of surprised I hadn't gotten around to it before. Just one of those things that accidentally fell by the wayside, I suppose.
I do at least know Begin The Begin! It's a bloody awesome track. I also know Cuyahoga.
