i dont know their first chart entrance, but their highest (i think) was the great beyond which reached no3 in britain.

Yeah but I'm not British I'm from the republic and there seems to be more of a following towards REM in Ireland as appose to Britian so I think there could be a higher chart positioning in Ireland... then again I could be wrong but who's to say

No i think thats their highest position ever, anywhere.

REM have had 6 number ones in the USA! check out the Guinness book of records if you don't believe me

Its cool, i believe you. But they were on the Billboard of Modern Rock. Is that the same as the charts?

I'm just going by what i read to be honest i wasn't into rem when they were all the talk at around 93-94 but i don't know

-- darragh (lotus85@another.com), August 04, 2000.

Neither was I. Ive only been into them for about 2 years, who knows, they could have had 6 number ones.
