R.E.M. performing ‘Shiny Happy People’ during SNL rehearsals in 1991

R.E.M.’s “Shiny Happy People” is the ultimate feel-good anthem that makes you want to dance, laugh, and hug your friends all at once, and the band even gave off the vibes during their rehearsals on Saturday Night Live. Featuring the infectious vocals of Kate Pierson from The B-52’s, this 1991 hit from the Out Of Time blockbuster album proved that even alternative rock can sparkle with pure joy.
