referencing Losing My Religion (Song Of The Year Edition) (CD, Single) 9362-40399-2

Fretless is a little jewel in the R.E.M. discography, a loopy ballad with Kate Pierson doing background vocals, which was featured in the always tastemaker Wim Wenders' "Until the end of the world".

referencing Losing My Religion (7", 45 RPM, Single) 45-80163

Very scarce PVC disc with a plastic transparent generic Fediscos sleeve. Not a promo, but mostly sent to radio, some have personalised hand written notes with signature on the labels.
