CARBON TAX SONG - BUY AND SELL THE SKY - AL GORE FAT CAT RICH PEPSI DRINKING LAZY ASS DEMOCRAP BASTARD - ASK A CHINAMAN ABOUT COAL BURNING PLANTS AND LOCOMOTIVES!!!!!!!! THE LEFTIST ELITE CAN KISS MY BOOTS --
Hmmm...they were so innovative back when I was in college. Then there was "Shiny Happy People" and a bunch of other crap. This album is one of the greatest ever made. It is a shame that they sold out to mediocrity.
@IlliniJake I think selling out is a danger alot of bands face hey look what happened to the Eagles talk about a sell out! They used to be good but they stayed too long and NOW THEY SUCK! The Beatles quit on top very smart. The good thing is we still have alot of really good REM songs to listen to over and over ...this being one of them.REM is a really great band.
Hey, speak for yourself about The Eagles, man. "Long Road Out Of Eden" is by far their best album. These guys are actually better than before and continue to progress. Just because Walmart now sells their albums, doesn't mean they've sold out. Listen to that latest album again, you're bound to find a handful of masterpieces, such as the title track.
I remember thinking this was the best song REM had ever done. Then one day I saw an interview with Michael Stipe. During that interview he said this was also *his* favorite REM song. What I got from that "connection" was that, *whatever* this song is about, I must "get it." Since that moment I try not to concern myself with what their lyrics mean, as much as what they mean to me.
Are the pictures of those absolutely magnificent clouds shot by yourself--reminpictures? Cuz there are some mind blowers in that little video of yours. Good job in any case, the song represents nicely, it's what it is all about.. Cheers.
@denvaria Okay, calm down. I was just asking. I only have it on disc, and it's noticably faster. I have all their other albums on CD, and all the songs sound faster than on this channel. That's all I was saying.
I don't know about other songs on this channel, but this one definitely sounds slowed down. Not a LOT slower, but enough that it's noticeable and not in a good way.
@foxkieran They do this because the greedy corporate nazis like EMI, Vevo, and Warner all come on YouTube and make people take down videos w/ their music. Even though the poster is not out to make money! If it is slowed down a tick, it is harder for them to find.
I guess they think they'll make more money if you watch it on their pages and endure their banners and commercials.
This is a really beautiful video....great images and beautiful music. Thanks reminpictures for posting and special thanks to Krylogenic for the great share.

I have this on CD and this sounds like the turntable needs repair, I suggest (if you have one) checking your turntable's belt/speed.

@foxkieran It's not slower; it's in a lower register. Half a step down, I think this one is.

Boycott any EMI, Vevo, and WMG videos.

Yes, this is their best song.
Not as good quality recording as their later work, but they had money by then.

Agree, this is their best song. The Summer (86) before I turned 30. Was still a twenty something. Great song.
