– That was what we thought about with this retrospective \u2013 that it’s for a teenager out there who only knows R.E.M. as that band who do that song that plays in the elevator, or the grocery store, or the deli, or the cab, or for being that band with the bald guy in it. This is for them.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

S\u00e5dan siger Michael Stipe om R.E.M.’s karriereopsummerende 2CD-opsamling, der udkommer i dag og kronologisk pr\u00e6senterer Athens-bandet’s popul\u00e6reste \u00f8jeblikke fra start til slut. Men hvorfor spilde\u00a0denne gyldne mulighed p\u00e5 hvem, der alligevel ikke bryder sig synderligt om R.E.M.? For den teenager Stipe taler om, kommer jo alligevel aldrig til at interessere sig for eller k\u00f8be nogen opsamling med hans band. Den tjans tilfalder istedet de, der f\u00f8rst var unge og siden blev voksne med R.E.M.’s musik som det bedst t\u00e6nkelige soundtrack. Hvor det langt fra altid var de popul\u00e6reste sange som sagde mest og spillede bedst. Hvorfor de 40 numre p\u00e5\u00a0Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage<\/em> giver et alt for fattigt bud p\u00e5 historien om R.E.M.’s magi. Ikke engang bandets IMO allerbedste sang ‘E-Bow The Letter’ er der blevet fundet plads til. Havde Warner Brothers istedet ringet hertil og bedt om en fanorienteret tracklist, var det blevet en helt anderledes samling. P\u00e5 min personlige playlist-version af pladen\u00a0– den kan ses p\u00e5 iTunes-billedet her nedenfor – er 24 sange skiftet ud. Lad gerne flere personlige bud p\u00e5 R.E.M.’s 40 bedste \u00f8jeblikke fra start til slut komme ind under kommentarer.<\/p>\n
