"Crush with Eyeliner" was the third Single to be released by R.E.M. from the band's ninth studio album '' Monster ''. Sonic Youth 's Thurston Moore provides nonchalant background vocals. Michael Stipe claims the song was inspired by the band New York Dolls , who, in his opinion, "knew how to exaggerate a song, to make it sound really sleazy and over the top." This was also one of the first songs that surfaced from Stipe after the writer's block that hounded him after the death of his friend, River Phoenix . The single's Video , directed by Spike Jonze , shows a group of Asian youths dancing and miming to the track at a party, whilst the band are shown briefly, looking on. It is available on the music video compilation ''Parallel'' .
