Automatic For The People by REM

What makes Automatic For The People exceptional is its ability to address the most profound human experiences without platitudes or melodrama. The album arrived at a pivotal cultural moment when AIDS was decimating communities and a generation reckoned with its mortality far earlier than expected. But one of its gifts is how it balances darkness with light. For every sombre moment, there's a counterbalance of wit or transcendence.Featured songs:DriveThe Sidewinder Sleeps ToniteEverybody HurtsSweetness FollowsMan On The MoonNightswimming
