You can always tell somebody who doesn't reall know them when they say they are depressing. It more more like they have a song for every mood and sometimes the mood is down. Heck, Everybody Hurts is not depressing if you actually listen to the words. It is more like Pandora's Box in song.

I too have gone back and got caught up with their older stuff...and yeah Everybody Hurts is another one of my favorites...so many good songs...and let's not forget Stipe got to bang Natalie Merchant, that in and of itself is worthy of rock and roll history...I always found her to be hot in an exotic way.
