About This Track
According to Michael Stipe, the lyrics were inspired by a dream concerning a drug made of light. Electron Blue was the third single released off of Around The Sun. The title would later be name checked on Accelerate’s Sing For The Submarine.

I think this is a strong track for them. Unique, stylistically. It peaks into corners that you didn't know REM had.

Not a particularly big fan of Pat McCarthy's work with R.E.M., but this song is wonderfully produced.

It's fortunate the Michael Stipe is amongst the most profoundly human of rock singers, because otherwise this record would be nothing but bloodless electronics.

This is pretty lifeless on record, but it sounds really good at shows. Like most of Ats really.

I love the vocal melody on this. And... well, it had a strong enough impression on Stipe to be namechecked in Sing for the Submarine, so it can't be half bad.

I really like the song. It is interesting musically - love Mike's bass. The lyrics are a little goofy, but they are charming just the same.

Hmm, I disagree. That honour goes to The Worst Joke Ever (fitting title); I really like this song.
