ABOUT THE RECORD Automatic for the People, by rock band R.E.M., reached #2 in the U.S. and yielded six singles. The album has sold over 18 million copies worldwide and is widely considered one of the best records released in the 1990s. The album reached #1 in the UK on four separate occasions. The front cover of the album shows a greyed-out photograph of a Miami motel sign. The back cover features a photograph of an old building with the track listing written over at the same angle from which the building is viewed. Other photographs, taken by Anton Corbijn, feature the band members on a beach. Despite not having toured after the release of Out of Time, R.E.M. again declined to tour in support of this album. Automatic for the People has been certified four times platinum in the US (four million copies shipped), six times platinum in the UK (1.8 million shipped), and three times platinum in Australia (210,000 shipped). Automatic for the People yielded six singles over the course of 1992 and 1993: Drive, Man on the Moon, The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite, Everybody Hurts, Nightswimming, and Find the River. Lead single Drive was the album's highest-charting domestic hit, reaching #28 on the Billboard Hot 100. Other singles charted higher overseas: Everybody Hurts charted in the top ten in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. Automatic for the People placed third in the Village Voice Pazz & Jop year-end critics' poll. The album was nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards of 1994. Rolling Stone also ranked it at #18 on its "100 Greatest Albums of the 90s" list.
