"Finest Worksong"
No favorite album, but maybe one of the earlier ones to mid 80s

Favorite song is probably Superman. I don't really have a favorite album.

To me there are two R.E.M.s. The 80s R.E.M. and the 90s R.E.M. To put it in album terms there is everything up through Green and everything after Green. I generally like 80s R.E.M. though there are occasional songs that are fingernails on a chalkboard annoying to my ears like Shiny Happy People and Finest Worksong. 90s R.E.M. sucks bloated sheep's bladder. They got so preoccupied making socially conscious messages that they forgot they are supposed to be a rock and roll band. Think of Jackson Browne's career arc pre and post Lawyers in Love album. I absolutely despise Losing My Religion and Everybody Hurts. Those songs destroyed the band because Stipe became all serious all of the time after they became hit songs.
