Song- the one not sung my Michael Stipe, Texarkana, sung by bassist Mike Mills. No favorite album.

And I also don't go for this other thing now
With MTV being so big where you get a band that gets a hit video
And all of the sudden they think that they're like icons
And they can tell us how to feel about environmental issues
And how to vote and stuff. You know what I'm talking about? Like R.E.M.?
"Shiny happy people" Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey!
Pull that bus over to the side of the pretentiousness turnpike, all right?
I want everybody off the bus. I want the shiny people over here, and the happy people over here, okay?
I represent angry gun-toting meat-eating fricking people, all right?
Sit down and shut the frick up, Michael!

R.E.M. has always sucked.

Song: Man On The Moon
Album: Out Of Time

Btw, Michael Stipe grew up in the St. Louis area in nearby Collinsville, IL and had his first TV appearence as part of the freak show surrounding "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" as a teenager in the late 70's.

(Don't Go Back To) Rockville

It's the country influence and it was probably the most straightforward song to date, for them, at the time...

Murmur noses it for me in regards to albums...
