"R.E.M has finally done it again with this album! Every track has something going for it, and they flow perfectly.

"this website is frustrating lol. Too many hipsters and boomers and not enough cultured individuals. If you like jazz-funk-soul then disregard this album's rating and go listen to it NOW. If you're a Radiohead or Kanye West fan, go ahead and leave without leaving a rating. Thanks."  Reply

"Good Times is a legendary and highly influential song, worthy of a mini-doc of its own. Following the lead single is a collection of consistently good songs. None come close to the initial peak, but offer organic and tight grooves that vary from yearning slow jams to slick mid-tempo dance numbers."  Reply
