It is not necessary to post as to why you voted the way you did, but it would be interesting to the rest of us.
Note - There are 2 threads to this poll. You may only vote in 1 of the 2.
Note - For your vote to be counted, you must check the box at the top of the thread. By just making a post to comment on your selection will not include that selection in the poll.

Out of Time. I can listen to Losing My Religion everyday and not get sick of it
R.E.M. Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - Tiggi - 03-06-2010
Unusual choice...
I agree with you that it's good, but it wouldn't be the critic's choice.
I like Texarkana as well.

3 people really voted for Out of Time. That album's awful. But Murmur, dam what an album. Truly one of the best albums ever made
R.E.M. Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - TraceNspace - 11-08-2011
^^^^I think Losing My Religion is a great song but yes, over all Out of Time was an awful album. Near Wild Heaven grates on my nerves as does Shiny Happy People most days! And Half a World a Way just drags on and on and bores me to tears. I say all this as a huge R.E.M. fan lol
