The airy, ambient so-called “IHT>U>EDIYTW (Dubmix)” is an instrumental mix of three songs from R.E.M.'s forthcoming fifteenth studio album Collapse Into Now. Using the tracklist as a decoder, we can assume the "dubmix"-ed songs are "It Happened Today,” “Uberlin,” and “Every Day Is Yours to Win.” Remember, the album version of "It Happened" features Eddie Vedder. Take a listen, write your own vocal lines:

It's the holiday season. Last year, for their annual holiday single, R.E.M. tackled Collapse guest Lenny Kaye’s “Crazy Like a Fox” plus “Santa Baby." This year, the guys (and friends) cover Darlene Love's "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).” They reunited with Bill Berry for it, another annual tradition:
