About This Track

“Imitation of Life” is a song by R.E.M., the first single released from their twelfth album, Reveal in 2001. The song peaked at #83 on the Billboard Hot 100 (but reached #22 on the U.S. Modern Rock list).

    Oh, Billy...everyone is well aware of the debt R.E.M. owes to the Byrds and their jangle-pop. It's been universally acknowledged and understood for 30 years. In other words, it goes without saying. We've ALL noticed.
