    I selected "Reveal" as my favorite cover art, but only because I had to select something. So invalidate that one vote for statistical purposes.

    Never heard of them. 20, very tall, wtf didn't you ask the gender I know not but I'm male, wear glasses all the time, favour purple and safari colours, have no favourite geometrical shape except maybe some affinity with shields, average at following directions - selected pretty bad (but I'll find my way, you may be sure ;) ), don't know who's Michael Stipe, woouldn't consider going to a REM concert, I rarely go to concerts (ages, ages have passed since I last went to one), I've never heard any REM song (or don't realise having heard) therefore I don't have a favourite one, market research is more wasting my time than boring, but I'll always fill in such things for friends or good magazines, websites, authorities etc. Murmur is the only cover art I don't dislike, in fact it's even quite nice.

    Hope this helps you ;)

    Bridgekeeper: What...is your name?

    Arthur: King Arthur of the Britons!

    Bridgekeeper: What...is your quest?

    Arthur: I seek the Holy Grail!

    Bridgekeeper: What...is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

    Arthur: (brief pause) What do you mean, an African or a European swallow?

    Bridgekeeper: (confused) Well...I don't know...AAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!

    Bedevere: (crossing behind Arthur) How do you know so much about swallows, sire?

    Arthur: Well, you have to know these sorts of things when you're a king, you know...


    Sorry all, with some of those questions, I couldn't resist digging up my Holy Grail script.

    I selected Reveal as the best cover art, but thats because i could smell the pot from the monitor. Mind you, a couple of my brother's mates were over last night...

    Yeah, I would recognise Michael Stripe. Crazy bald fellow with white eyebrows and beard.

    I believe that EVERYONE has heard 'losing my religion'. And they have just released Bad Day, and that gets a lot of air time on MTV.

    Yeah, Bad Day has just been released. Unfortunately, that song comes from the new "Best Of" Album that comes out in a coupla months. HOWEVER, the song was originally a Lifes Rich Pageant outtake, so if ye like that song, chalk it up for that one.

    Losing My Religion is from Out Of Time.

    Everybody Hurts is from Automatic For The People.

    Whats the Frequency, Kenneth? is from Monster.
