Is "It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" REM's greatest song? Probably not. But it might be their most catchy and it's definitely the one you are most likely to know about 1/10th of the words to. It's such a cultural touchstone that Michael, Richard and Jeff have devoted an entire episode to every aspect of this song, from specific people mentioned to its appropriateness as a karaoke song. And yes, we definitely get into LEONARD BERNSTEIN!

So, it's time to brush up on your celebrities with the initials "LB" and get ready for a symbiotic, patriotic slam but neck, right? Right!
