| Editorial Reviews:
From Amazon.co.uk Green catapulted R.E.M. from campus cult favourites to rock stars of the highest order. The album contains three of the Athens, Georgia, quartet's most popular radio hits ("Pop Song 89", "Stand", and "Orange Crush"), punching up the big rock hooks and letting the spooky independent production slip away. Some diehard fans cried "Sellout!" but that's a strange attitude given singer Michael Stipe's environmental activism. "I'm very scared of this world," he sings above jangling mandolins on "You Are the Everything". It's still unclear what he's trying to say, but at least we can understand the words this time. --Steve Knopper
Chronique amazon.fr Avec Green, les musiciens de REM gravissent une marche de plus vers le succès planétaire. Pour leur premier album sur la major Warner, ils se lancent dans l'écriture de chansons pop simples et immédiates ; avec bonheur, puisque la plus connue d'entre elles, "Stand", rentre dans le Top Ten américain. Ils n'ont pas pour autant perdu leur lucidité décalée et on entend Michael Stipe chanter ce refrain bizarre dans "Pop Song 89" : "Doit-on parler de la pluie et du beau temps ou du gouvernement ?" On remarque, enfin, trois ans avant "Losing My Religion", l'arrivée de la mandoline et du violoncelle : deux instruments acoustiques rares dans le rock et que REM utilise avec beaucoup d'élégance et de sobriété. --Hubert Deshouse
