Album of the Day

eponymous, by REM (1988): Why choose a greatest hits collection as album of the day? Because this is a pretty good indication of how I interact with honestly popular music. This is the one REM album I own - likewise I own only one U2 album, the live Under a Blood Red Sky. I really enjoy listening to them both, but I have absolutely no desire whatsoever to expand my collection. I suppose maybe I've heard so much of them on the radio and TV that my appetite for their stuff is fairly limited.

I have both albums, and Under A Blood Red Sky is the only U2 album I own--based on your same rationale. But I relented and bought a couple more REM albums.
