R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by drummer Bill Berry, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist/backing vocalist Mike Mills, and lead vocalist Michael Stipe. One of the first alternative rock bands, R.E.M. was noted for Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style, Stipe's distinctive vocal quality and obscure lyrics, Mills's melodic basslines and backing vocals, and Berry's tight, economical style of drumming.
R.E.M. released its first single—"Radio Free Europe"—in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone.

Let the sun beat through the clouds, Let me kiss you on the mouth. All my childhood toys with chew marks in your smile. Let me hold your syrup close to mine. Let me watch you, Hollywood and Vine. And I want you like the movies, touch me now. C I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, {Hold C chord} You turn me on.
CC C#x D My attentions are turned to you
Did I dream you were a tourist in the Arizona sun? I can see you there with luna moths and watermelon gum. I woke up in the sleeping bag, With nowhere else to run. You're standing in the bathroom telling me its all in fun. C I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, {Hold C chord} You turn me on.
CC C#x D My attentions are turned to you
I can whisper in your ear. I can write a calendar year I can wing around your Saturn smile, shut out the moon I walked the tension wire line. And I learned to disrespect the signs. And I want you like a Pisces rising, even though C I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, {Hold C chord} You turn me on.
