“Radio Free Europe” foi lançada em 1981 como o primeiro single da R.E.M., gravada pelo selo independente Hib‑Tone.
A faixa apresenta os versos que viram marca registrada da banda, com letras intocáveis que ficaram notórias desde então.
O sucesso crítico do single garantiu à R.E.M. um contrato com a I.R.S. Records, impulsionando a carreira da banda.
Em 1983, a mesma música foi regravada para o álbum de estreia *Murmur* e alcançou a posição 78 nas paradas da Billboard.
A gravação original manteve um estilo pós‑punk que diferia do som mais alternativo que a R.E.M. desenvolveu nos anos seguintes.
