How do you condense 15 years of music down to 76 minutes? In the case of this survey of the second phase of R.E.M.'s career, the answer is: Exceptionally well. The dangling carrot for diehards is two new songs; the rapid fire "Bad Day" hurtles along like the kissing cousin of "It's the End of the World as We Know It," while "Animal" is anchored by a majestic drone reminiscent of the Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows." In a surprising, but gratifying move, the rest of the program shortchanges the band's breakthrough, Out of Time (no "Shiny Happy People"), to better accommodate movie soundtrack contributions, and spotlight gems from the less commercial, post-Bill Berry albums Reveal and Up; with its baroque piano and multi-tracked vocal harmonies, the Beach Boys homage "At My Most Beautiful" is particularly gorgeous, while the burbling keyboards and slightly dazed singing of "All the Way to Reno" will appeal to Flaming Lips fans. --Kurt B. Reighley

 Very Much Pleased August 31, 2008
N. Hanhan
I ordered this item and received it in less than 48hours. The item arrived exactly as described and, as the CD was a gift for someone else, this was the most important aspect of the sale for me. I would definitely buy from this seller again in the future.
Good collection CD August 31, 2008
Maureen Brennan (Calgary, Alberta, Canada)
I am not a die-hard R.E.M. fan so half of the music on this disc was new to me.
I have to say this is a good CD; very enjoyable. All the big hits are here.
Tracks that were new to me were "The Great Beyond", "Bad Day", "All the way to Reno", "E-Bow the Letter", "Imitations of Life", "Animal", "Electrolite", "All the Right Friends" and "At my Most Beautiful". They are all good tracks.
I like this band more after listen to this CD and I recommend it.
Their new CD "Accelerate" is really good too.

One More Song! May 30, 2008
RAJ
I bought this CD last week and have really enjoyed regaining some of my youth. I have 2 little ones and this album is mellow enough to share with them. I thought this collection could have easily included another CD. (Where's "Crush with Eyeliner" and "Shiny Happy People"?) I want more to give this 5 stars! I completely enjoyed reading the liner notes - there is a little blurb about each song. The "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" background info was a little before my time, so I found it interesting to learn about it's story. I have most of these albums on tape (dating myself), but it was nice to have the best all in one place. A good collection for any R.E.M. fan, if only for the liner notes.
 about the music CD...Best of REM......... May 13, 2008
Ang Poon Kah (Singapore)
The music is so so only after shops in Singapore sell this album (double disc album) which could also be found on Amazon.com. These shops in Singapore are HMV Singapore and Gramophone. What I could say about the nice pieces of music they have out of the so so album are track 8 - orange crush, track 9 - imitation of life and track 12 - the sidewinder sleeps tonite. Recommeneded to those whom are interested in this genre of music.
