Speaking of #misheardlyrics one of my favorite REM songs of all time that I only just now looked up the lyrics for…

@renwillis @alternativenation I love R.E.M.! Murmur is one of my all time favorite albums.
A story I loved recently was about the mutual admiration between R.E.M. and the creators of The Bear.

@jcrabapple @alternativenation Ooo, I’ll check that out! REM is one of my favorite bands of all time, even after hitting big, they were still weirdo art nerds doing weird things. Always authentic & respect calling it quits on their terms. One of the greatest American bands ever.
imo

@jcrabapple @alternativenation you think they’ll ever get their due in a “one of the great classics” kind of way like Zeppelin, Beatles, U2, etc? Or will they remain slightly below the surface and quietly continue to inspire bands?

@jcrabapple @alternativenation that feels right. Mainstreamers will love “Losing My Religion”, “Man On The Moon”, and a few others like End of the World - but yeah, Stipe’s wallflower energy just keeps them slightly out of arms reach of being America’s classic band.
@renwillis @jcrabapple @alternativenation have folks seen The Baseball Project, with some REM representation? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Baseball_Project
@PhilV @jcrabapple @alternativenation I have, but it didn’t stick with me. Missing the Stipe sauce.
