The smash singles \"Losing My Religion\"--perhaps the only Top Five US single ever to feature the mandolin as its lead instrument--and \"Shiny Happy People\" were the commercial face of the album. Elsewhere, however, R.E.M. makes a point of moving away from expectations, resulting in intriguing experiments like the surprisingly funky \"Radio Song\" (featuring rapper KRS-One), the spoken-word ambient chill-out \"Belong,\" and the self-explanatory \"Country Feedback.\" Interestingly, the songs most immediately identifiable as \"R.E.M. songs,\" the jangly rockers \"Texarkana\" and \"Near Wild Heaven,\" are both sung by bassist Mike Mills. Though it was quickly overshadowed by AUTOMATIC FOR THE PEOPLE during the following year, OUT OF TIME remains a fascinating portrait of R.E.M. at a pivotal point in the group's career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"strike\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrack Listings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"trackListCol1\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discNumber\"\u003eDisc 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eRadio Song\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eLosing My Religion\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eLow\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eNear Wild Heaven\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eEndgame\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eShiny Happy People\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eBelong\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eHalf a World Away\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eTexarkana\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e10\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eCountry Feedback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"trackNumber\"\u003e11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"track\"\u003eMe in Honey\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1991-03-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"R.E.M.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53454386102456,"sku":"VMYJ5I-I0MP-MH","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/rem-out-of-time-import_8Tv2O.jpg?v=1778519183","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/r-e-m-out-of-time-import","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
