name the worst song on your favourite album

[LemonMelon]

Yes. REM. I'd like REM to cover Electioneering some day.

This thread has come full circle.

 

[Zoots]

Find The River is probably my second favorite R.E.M. song. It's perfect.

Which one's your fav? ...Religion?

 

[LemonMelon]

My fave = Suspicion

 

[AtomicBono]

marry me?

In Limbo is one of my faves from Kid A as well... dunno if it's my #1 though...Idioteque would probably win for that

worst song on Kid A is Treefingers, duh. yawn!

well everyone knows my favourite album is Pop so I guess the "worst" song is The Playboy Mansion. but when I'm in right mood for it that song is so

Which one's your fav? ...Religion?

Country Feedback. By a wide margin. I often consider it my favorite song of all time as a matter of fact.

#3 is Ebow (The Letter)

 

[LemonMelon]

marry me?

People have already proposed to me several times on this forum, and I'm not entirely sure if all of them were women.

But OK.

 

[Lancemc]

My fave = Suspicion

Up is another one of my favorite albums. Suspician isn't my #1 from that album though, but it's in the top 5 for sure.

You know, it's so fucking difficult for me to ever pick a definitive favorite R.E.M. album. They simply have tooooo many first-class masterpieces.

Life's Rich Pageant
Out of Time
Automatic for the People
New Adventures in Hi-Fi
Up

Five nearly flawless, amazing albums, each one wildly different from the others too. Man.

And throw in Murmur, Fables, Document, Green, Monster, and maybe even Reveal.

God damn. What a band.

One of my old roommates was nuts about Country Feedback. I have never understood it. I like the song but prefer Me In Honey, Texarkana or any of those other songs on side B.

This list lacks Up, and therefore you shall be punished.

I love Texarkana. I wish Mike Mills got to sing more often.

Begin The Begin

I love their early material when I'm in the right mood, but I think '87-'96 was their strongest period, just like U2 '84-'93.

 

[corianderstem]

See? REM loves is the only thing that counteracts the Radiohead love.

 

[Zoots]

#4 fav R.E.M. song.

When you posted that, for some reason I was thinking These Days. They're both similar. Similarly awesome. LRP is such a good album!

nope, Bowie love ftw!

 

[LemonMelon]

See? REM loves is the only thing that counteracts the Radiohead love.

What about...

Arcade Fire love?

Flaming Lips love?

Wilco love?

 

[Zoots]

I think '87-'96 was their strongest period

I would definitely include Lifes Rich Pageant in that. So for me it would be '86 - '96. Up was great but it was a bit too downbeat in parts.

Green.

 

[Zoots]

Green.

Oh yeah. Green is not very good overall.

 

[corianderstem]

Wilco love?

No, no, no! I'm trying to defend myself against my apparent double standard!

 

[Lancemc]

I think we need some more Up love in here.

Lotus
Suspicion
Daysleeper
Walk Unafraid
Falls to Climb

Diminished

[LemonMelon]

Green.

I almost picked this one up used for $4.
