REM has created many exquisitely beautiful songs, but never a perfect album.

Discuss.

I think "Reckoning" is flawless, personally.

OK, you might be right about Reckoning. And I guess I wouldn't mind "It's the end of the world..." without the excessive radio play, you're right.

But Murmur, for example, is a good album with the crap of "Catapult" right in the middle. Maybe that's it - Catapult ruined it all for me! That and living in Florida when Stand was out and having to hear freshman girls sing it over and over.

They've got a pretty cool website (REM, not the freshman girls): http://www.remhq.com/flash/index.html
