Biography

Athens, Georgia band R.E.M. were one of the most influential bands in the formation of alternative rock and indie, and became one of the biggest rock groups in the world in the early 1990s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Michael Stipe's brillance, February 27, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Great Beyond / Man on the Moon (Audio CD)

Once again R.E.M. has shown us they can still put out the hits. The Great Beyond is a great tune. Especially when coming from the voice of Stipe. He has the certain tone in his voice that is amazing. Michael is a talented musician, the lyrics are sung in such a way that give us listenenrs a powerful vibe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Andy Kauffman Tribute, May 18, 2001

Thomas Magnum (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Great Beyond / Man on the Moon (Audio CD)

"The Great Beyond" is another song from R.E.M. about the late comic Andy Kauffman. Their first song, "Man On The Moon", serves as the title of the film that "The Great Beyond" is included in. The song finds the band looking for answers and calling out to Mr. Kauffman to provide them. The song is not quite as whimsical as "Man In the Moon", but it has alot of power and is easily better than anything from their Up album.

REM is so tired....every song is now a very slow, depressing depict on American life.

It seems like I have been waiting for this single for forever! I really didn't want the soundtrack, but I liked this song because it's catchy.

5.0 out of 5 stars More brilliant work
REM once again has created a truly great piece of music. As with most new REM work, it requires a few listens. But after those few listens you will be addicted!

4.0 out of 5 stars THE GREAT BEYOND
The clarity of Stipe's voice and string arrangements are piercing; one of the best cuts from the band in many years.....
