"\"E-Bow the Letter\" is the first single from R.E.M.'s tenth studio album New Adventures in Hi-Fi. It was released in August 1996 just weeks before the album's release. During the same month, R.E.M. signed its then record-breaking five-album contract with Warner Bros. Records. Although it peaked at #4 on the UK Singles Chart, the highest any R.E.M. song charted in the UK until \"The Great Beyond\" in 2000, the song fared less well in the United States, reaching only #49 on the Billboard Hot 100."@en . . . . . .
