R.E.M. "Losing My Religion"

R.E.M. churned out a hit alternative rock song in 1991 that featured a mandolin. The band's guitarist, Peter Buck, turned out a set of unforgettable chords on the mandolin while Michael Stipe sang lyrics to the song that resulted in the band's signature tune, "Losing My Religion". Once known as simply a college campus favorite, the album Out of Time and, specifically, "Losing My Religion" helped R.E.M. crossed over onto mainstream radio.
