Our Take

MICKY DOLENZ - Dolenz Sings R.E.M.

As a former Monkee, Micky Dolenz may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of alternative rock legends R.E.M. But with his latest solo effort, Dolenz Sings R.E.M., he proves that he is more than just a 'Daydream Believer'.

From the opening chords of "Losing My Religion" to the dreamy vibes of "Everybody Hurts", Dolenz brings his own unique spin to these iconic tracks. His charming vocals and playful energy breathe new life into classics like "Man on the Moon" and "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)".

While some may scoff at the idea of a 60s pop star taking on the music of R.E.M., Dolenz's genuine love and respect for the band shines through in every note. His interpretations are not mere imitations, but rather reimaginings that showcase his own musical prowess.

Sure, there are moments where Dolenz's voice may not reach the heights of Michael Stipe's distinctive vocals, but that's part of the charm. It's like watching your quirky uncle belt out your favourite tunes at a family karaoke night - endearing and surprisingly enjoyable.

In a world filled with cookie-cutter cover albums, Dolenz Sings R.E.M. is a refreshing and unexpected treat. So put on your indie rock snob hat and give it a spin - you may just find yourself pleasantly surprised.
