ALBUM: OUT OF TIME
SONG: LOSING MY RELIGION
DATE: FEBRUARY 19, 1994
STATUS: AQUIRED
There are two R.E.M.s. The one before Out of Time, an emotional punkish rag tag act out of the southern collegiate hinterland of Athens Georgia, and the one after, a full blown artistic machine that could fully recognize any notion it collectively held.
"Losing My Religion's" instrumental exploration would set the metric against which all other R.E.M. work would be compared, before, after, return, etc. The lyrics are wonderfully poetic and impassioned without ever honing in on a narrative.
