@delboy20091 you are always very welcome :))))

[REMCUREBOY]

This is the first time I've even SEEN this live. I have it on my iPod but I've never seen it live. Thank you for posting it. Cool clip!

[OTRKurtz88]

Muchas gracias Heidi, it's hard to find this more obscure REM album which I haven't heard before (even as a big REM fan) ! This is a cool song

[heidigretel]

@OTRKurtz88 i agree. cool song :)

[Reveal32]

A great version, with a little more propulsion and verve than the album track.

This is a little gem, just like Heidi!

[heidigretel]

@Reveal32

thank you for sweet comment :)))))

New Adventures is

yet another classic set by them

[glenaan]

Thanks for posting this.. I never heard this live before. I love new adventures, don't understand why it got all bad reviews.

[heidigretel]

you are very welcome :)

[78Keeley]

So much energy. I think this one's great too. I'd love to see them in a venue like that. But I'll be happy to see them again wherever. Hope they tour again before too long.

[Nonkelvladimir]

I really like this song, I think its underestimated!

[heidigretel]

yes i agree :)

[kayonalarsen]

[heidigretel]

New Adventures In Hi-Fi was one of my fave albums............

[asloem]

i saw them perform this song in 1999 but it was so long ago! it's great live - much better than on record!

[Mirrorball1995]

cheers man this one has better sound than the other one. As much as I love their early 80s stuff, I still think New Adventures In Hi-fi is their best album.

[laufbold]

'I didn't wear glasses cause I thought it might rain, now I can't see anything'.  Great line !!

[fenderacolyte]

♫ The story is a sad one, told many times

The story of my life in trying times

Just add water, stir in lime

How the west was won and where it got us ♫

[Terminator7867]

[Terminator7827]

Mills piano tune is great

[TeethoftheHydra]

I've never seen this song performed live. Cool! :)

[nunzioforpresident]

favourite....5*

[Stipegroupie]

Thank you so much for posting this, Heidigretel. One of my favourite album tracks from one of my favourite albums, but I feel they have never performed this well live - probably because it was written and recorded in about 2 hours, and they cannot re-create that raw energy - perhaps an acoustic version with just Mike on piano, Peter on guitar and Michael singing would be good for a review. Michael if you are reading this ...

[heidigretel]

You are very welcome. :)

[Pauliefemo]

nice find

[Aster1805]

This song is a rare event on live concerts; therefore this video is more interesting. Peter's guitar has very original sound here. Thousand thanks! :)

[heidigretel]

You are very welcome Aster1805. :)

[alcidesrepetto]

[akacja77]

[KerreyTheBitterSugar]
