 Up and Down, but mostly up July 30, 2007
Milton Leeman (Columbus, Ohio)
Most of REM's greatest songs are here, but you must also wade through a few too many clunkers.
R.E.M's Collected Singles November 6, 2005

I purchased this album full of REM singles - exactly 20 tracks from their early years on the road. Some of the songs are well know to listeners and audiences' alike such as the fine songs of 'Radio Free Europa', 'Don't Go Back to Rockville' and 'Maps and Legends'. R.E.M have gone ahead and added some previously unreleased B-side tracks that show the group fine-tuning their unique music style with small gems like 'There She Goes Again', 'Bandwagon', 'Crazy' and 'Superman'. I have to admit many of the songs I did not hear before and liked them. This Canadian band who have been around for ages show that they haven't lost their groove or sound in their decades of performing.
The album also includes 2 band hits in 'It's the End of the World As We Know It' and 'Finest Worksong'. Well worth getting for all REM fans.
 Great IRS singles collection December 17, 2004

If you liked the first 5 or 6 REM albums then this collection is for you. It has 10 singles released in Europe with all the b-sides to those singles. This is the unofficial official release of a greatest hits for the early years. Personally I would like to have the entire End of the World on this cd but if you own all the regular releases then it won't matter. This cd tends to be on the slightly overpriced side when you can find it in stores, as it is a import, but worth the few extra dollars to have all these great songs on one cd. 90/100
The best of early R.e.m. December 9, 2003

"Singles collected" is valuable collection of all irs company years hits along with precious rare b-sides.
The one i love","It's the end of the world","finest worksong" are all here along with less known songs like dark "Crazy",rocking "White tornado" or cheerfull "Bandwagoon".
great collection for everyone who wants to know the history of R.e.m.booklet notes are interesting too.
good collection of REM early material October 25, 2003

REM's Singles Collection provides a pretty good collection of REM material from their IRS days starting from early stuff such as radio free europe and south central rain to later material such as one i love and it's the end of the world as we know it. It's great to hear their early material but too many of the songs are edits like rockville and can't get there from here. I wish they had put the full length songs on the album.
