Nearly three decades into a career that began with R.E.M.’s college-rock watermark Murmur in 1983, Michael Stipe has been an activist, a multi-Grammy winner, an official Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, a photographer, a video director and the list goes on. The release single of Losing My Religion in 1991 changed and defined R.E.M’s musical career and life: along with its critically-acclaimed music video, the song became their highest-charting hit in the United States.
Stipe understood why it was such a hit: "It's just a classic obsession pop song. I've always felt the best kinds of songs are the ones where anybody can listen to it, put themselves in it and say, 'Yeah, that's me.'"

This shot was taken backstage during a gig at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England.
