    "comment": "This was R.E.M.'s first single, released in 1981, before they signed to a major label.\n--\nFrom this past World Press Freedom Day [celebrated annually on Feb.13th], “Whether it’s music or a free press, censorship anywhere is a threat to the truth everywhere...I’m sending a shout-out to the brave journalists at Radio Free Europe,” said R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe. Added bassist Mike Mills, “Radio Free Europe’s journalists have been pissing off dictators for 75 years. You know you’re doing your job when you make the right enemies. ”\n\n--\n\nAnd don't miss Dusty's amazing deep dive on R.E.M. from the Cobain 50\n\nhttps://www.kexp.org/podcasts/cobain50/2024/7/17/rem-green-1988/",
