  • Grrrr

    

  • This song is MUCH MUCH better live...

  • One of my all time favorites especially LIVE

  • this Madrid show is a great mix , well played and boucy as hell. Life And How To Live It is the showstopper for me.

  • I think you hit the nail on the head mrdfittz1, also the reason why this is my favourite REM song of all.

  • That is pretty much what Michael himself said this song is about.

  • mmm

  • He was around a lot longer than Moby. 29 and a half years R.E.M. has been around.

  • What's crazy is how timeless REM sounds. I'm not saying they're the be all end all, but if you listen to Radio Free Europe from nearly 30 years ago, it sounds like I song you might hear on an alt radio station today.

  • I completely agree. That's why so many bands name R.E.M. as one of their inspirations.

  • @YepOkay There will never again be one band like this.

  • great song and i like watching the way he moves.. no idea why.

  • i read that the blue make up represents electron blue, a hullucinagenic molecule that appeared to stipe in a dream

  • I think "Tulky" is fucking delirious,

    of course she dont just invent stories like that, i think "Tulky" most have some problems in the head.

  • Well said Denise

  • I didn't invent the story, he said it on Total TV 2003 and to Denis Leary, Look it up smart ass.

  • thanks for your reply

  • Because that year he said one morning he woke up and felt like having blue ears. Until last years tour he has wore make up on every R.E.M. tour and it really surprises me that a lot of their fans don't know that.

  • Why has Stipe that blue paint in the face?

  • why does anyone who is a rock star want to stand out in fashion?

  • because he wanted to do something to make himself different than Moby... sounds stupid but that's what happened.

  • I LOVE HIS STYLE AND DANCING(MOOVING) AT THE CONCRETS! they are fantastic but the "shirt" one is my favourite!

  • i love this song sound

  • that's an e-bow used on the guitar, right?

  • O yeah hes the best

  • STIPE ROOOOOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Cool song

  • I don't like 0:40

  • My favourite REM song

  • What a fantastic version of this song, the beginning brought tears to my eyes!! They are indeed the best band in the world!!

  • good song

  • I'm very happy to see that Up is the top album of others too. It's the most significant album in my life.

  • Oooh, never realised there was an E-bow in this song :D

  • That's really cool that you were at this concert.

  • I was at that concert! :)

  • Ide have to say Up and New adventures are my top two REM albums

  • REM are my all time favourite band and UP is my all time favourite album!

  • wow, is all i have to say. this song is amazing and it just has so much emotion imbeded into it

  • New Adventures in Hi Fi is such an under rated REM album.

    Awesome as always boys.

  • "Walk unafraid" is on "Lotus"-Album! But a great song though!

  • Sorry,..it's the "Up"-Album!

  • the up album is like the best album

  • todel82 - my bad. That is what happens when you watch videos whilst listening to a different album on the stereo!

    Considering they were without Bill....UP is a very good album.

  • i think is a crime that this kind of song is so unknown... I just heard it yesterday for the first time!! Such a shame... The words are so powerful...

  • rem is one of the best bands out there .. love all their songs

  • this song reaches me everytime deep in my soul...

    rocking for a free world..

    thx & best wishes

    terra aid networks

  • at 0:07 stipe looks as if he has masturbated on stage!

  • Yeah that's some sexy breathing.

  • Ha! good eye.  It's almost as if he took a cue from The Cramps - Tear it up

  • that's great littlevolcano. The song always fills me with hope.

  • This song has really helped me kick an addiction to painkillers more than anything else. It gave me hope to be myself. "I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and walk unafraid." If it could make me kick a 5 year habit I was using to avoid depression, it shows it's power. Brilliant.

  • unbelievable song. Up was the inspiration for Radiohead's Kid A. Think this song was the inspiration for idiotheque

  • pick me up when life pulls me down.

    i'll be clumsy instead

  • great song, thankx by upload

  • Musical orgasm

  • Easily their best live song!

  • best song ever!

  • Great song, one of my favorites ever. I also agree with sarxivicky - it's an unknown masterpiece.

  • This song makes me cry like..no other song..It's so emotionally charged, full of despair and struggle at the same time, i agree this must be the most brilliant song of REM..

    The line '..I was brought into this life, a little lamb..courageous, stumbling, fearless was my middlename..' shakes me up every time..

    holy shit, and this was the day Elliott Smith died...Horribly appropriate song, then..<=(

  • this song is totally amazing its reli moving the words r reli touching

  • "If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go, I just wanna hold my head up high." Such beautiful lyrics!

  • I adore this song,It makes me feel full of strength!!!thank u REM!!!

  • I totally agree with sarxivicky, definitely the best song ever from R.E.M. but for the most people totally unknown. Specially the live version, listening with tears in my eyes!!

  • That will be the national anthem of Boriken after we freed it from the United States.

  • best song from REM ever, and that is words from a big REM fan. properly the most unknown masterpiece in the world.

  • wow wow wow

  • they DO walk unafraid, R.E.M.

  • they claim to walk unafraid... powerfull words

  • Sweet!

  • fearless was my middle name

  • Incredibly powerful anthem of counter-culture and anti-conformity

  • thank you!!!!
