REM - Shiny Happy People

WTF? That's a crap song for sure, but downhill? Yeah, you're right -- following that up with AUTOMATIC FOR THE PEOPLE is a real step down. ROFL, etc.

When I read the thread title, I knew REM would be my pick. But I had a much later song in mind. I think Out of Time is perhaps their best album (to me, anyway), even if shiny happy people ain't that great. And of course joker is right about AFTP.
For me it's either Daysleeper or Imitation of Life. Probably the latter, as I like New Adventures and UP a lot.
