[DjRedgie]

This song always hits me and brings back memories. Often brings tears to my eyes as well.

[Marian1st]

Probably the best song ever written.

Bellissima



[delboy20091]

This song is a masterpiece & didn't do any good in the singles charts,they've always deserved better i think,never having a number 1 single in the U.K. is bad,Great band & song.

[MrFo3hawk]

What version is this? This isn't quite the version that I've grown on, but still, great pictures, beautiful song.

I've never been moved to the verge of tears by a song after hearing it once, that was, until I heard it for the first time last year.

[alrussell1985]

anybody else get the nuumber of a sex chat line in their ads by google box? thanks google for ruinin my favorite rem song

[krisgsxr]

My wife gave birth to our son during this song. Born in august 2008, september's coming soon... when this song is playing he always stands still and listens quietly...

10 people like swimming the daytime.

[MedicOnDutyVids]

This and Everybody Hurts are their greatest songs. But this brings back memories like you would not believe.

[MrFo3hawk]

@MedicOnDutyVids Yeah, Automatic for the People is pretty much the greatest thing ever. Although Around the Sun, Reveal, Out of Time, and Collapse Into Now deserve mention, they still hold no candles compared to this beast of an album.

[MedicOnDutyVids]

@MrFo3hawk The other song I really like by them is Orange Crush, simply because it's a song that I can listen to a hundred times and still have it mean something new. That and the song is catchy as it is.

[MrFo3hawk]

@MedicOnDutyVids Mmm, have you heard She Just Wants To Be? Great song, also, Imitation of Life.

[MedicOnDutyVids]

@MrFo3hawk I'll check it out; thanks for the suggestion.

[peacegirl941]

this song has unending meaning to me and never fails to make me cry. 10 people were obviously insane when they watched this(:

[nodohh]

R.E.M. make the best music of the world.

[b0il3r]

theese things they go away, replaced by everyday....

[mrjellopuddingpop]

i cant believe i have watched this video 199,413 times.

[iw32]

9 people don't understand.

[MirroredJigsaw]

This is in a different key than the album version. Wow, it's even more emotionally wrenching.

[Hootshot112]

first time I heard this one was in fact a remake od Dashboard Confessionnal. I find it good, but then I notice REM (losing my religion) and I finally heard this one. WOW. this is so much better in every way! Nightswimming deverses a quiet night :)

[mrREDBIRDFAN]

Nightswimming is great. Just be sure to wait an hour after you eat.

[geytratzing]

simply the best band ever... and it´s not a close competiton at all

[4fuksakeufuknasshole]

awesome song

[JayY1977]

Those pictures are awsome.Thats my dream to travel around the world and hang out in all the big cities.Thats incredible : )

[1pesel]

a dream to come true....

[cfabioc]

I hate this song. Although I like it very much, it makes me really sad. I can't listen to it without becoming gloomy...

[StanleyDonwood]

Have any of you been nightswimming? I can't honestly say I have

[phelanpeter]

@StanleyDonwood out of 172,481 viewers I bet theres been one or two and thats an under statement so with that being said your too young or too old to understand - no offence intended

[StanleyDonwood]

@phelanpeter To understand what? That perhaps the song isn't literally about swimming at night? Don't patronise me, I think we all guessed that

[Hootshot112]

@StanleyDonwood I did a lot when I was a child. In the lake. I used to lay on the water and stares at the sky. For me, this song is REALLY about nightswimming, and it reminds me of these nights, where everything is dark outside and yet so peaceful, calm and soothing.

[Bambaren1990]

ich finde das lied langweilig

[davegrohl2k98]

even 5 dislikes is really out of order! how is it possible not to like this

[Shadonir]

@davegrohl2k98 Years of opression by Hip-hop, r&b, drum n bass make people forget what real music is all about. They don't have a heart anymore

[jermain703]

@Shadonir thats not completely fair to blame the whole genres of hip hop and r&b for the decline of music. i agree on drum n bass though lol. however to say that hip hop and r&b killed music is misinformed

[orion1077]

@jermain703

I am guessing that what you refer to as R&B is these things that are being palyed around at the dance clubs these days and the various R&B university societies are having parties for (girls enter for free etc)...

uhm!...do you even know what the R&B initials stand for? they stand for Rythm and Blues.

The people who first started Rythm and Blues would be much more critical of what the acronym is now used for, than we whities are.

[jermain703]

@orion1077 that is also misinformed to assume that you know what i refer to as r&b. i think you misread my original comment... let's try that again

[dudehorner]

Love always to my precious son. This was his favorite REM song.

RIP Jordan 11/5/83 - 11/5/08

It's been almost two years and I miss you more and more each day.

[lusic24]

@dudehorner my brother died in 97 and this was his favorite song...i think about him every time i hear this song....it gets better but it still is sad

[dudehorner]

@lusic24 I appreciate your comment. It is indeed so very painful. So very sorry for your loss as well.

[Honeysuckle1719]

@dudehorner Your post broke my heart. I'm so sorry for your loss, and may you find peace and comfort in the music your son enjoyed.

[dudehorner]

@Honeysuckle1719 Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

[StarsCollideify]

@dudehorner Stay strong...God bless you

[dudehorner]

@StarsCollideify thanks so very much for the encouragement.

[Crackerroll1]

@dudehorner So, so sorry for your loss. May God's Peach be with you always.

[dudehorner]

@Crackerroll1 Thank you kindly.

[dudehorner]

@Crackerroll1 Thank you kindly.

[munstermama13]

@dudehorner

May you find solace in the happy memories ... for me ... it's been 5 years and it still seems like yesterday some days... greif like a tsunami - it sweeps in quick and queitly and drowns when we least expect it. i hope you smile when you hear this, and know that another relates to your loss. light and love

[MrEljacky78]

It's the best song of the world.

[WyldeStyle25]

r.e.m. is really something special. great memories listening to their music

[7ali7]

"...the fireman was going "can you get out please" and I was going "wait a minute"..." good old XFM years.

[leymj]

A touching song that brings back memories of a wonderful time in my life.

[sorcerer1975]

one of the best songs, from one of the best albums, made by one of the best bands ... makes me smile every single time i listen : )

[666IronMonkey666]

This song can elicit tears from a stone.

[jazzmanEE]

you i thought i knew you..you i cannot judge...

[nikkormac]

i think if i tried i couldn't think of more inappropriate visuals for this song. what the...?

[anelidok1]

I have a YouTube Playlist that just plays this song over and over. I play it at work sometimes. It calms me down and helps me concentrate. And I love the pictures on this video! They go so well with the music.

[fabiendelmar]

beautiful. This song plays at my work sometimes, and it really chills me out and makes me happy. Love REM!

[animal90sFreak5]

Great,I really like this song by R.E.M.

[fishlip3]

This song is really something special.

[steeshlad]

whats brilliant is that i didnt even get here from rickys blog but as soon as i seen the comments i realised he must of linked everyone here.

[7ali7]

@steeshlad I did exactly the same, I just happen to like the song and searched youtube for it and there are loads of Karl related comments! He's a sensation.

"Galileo- don't talk to me about- science- pleeeeease - MAKE ME - television"

[LordGodStronghold]

Habst du est gehurt, dood?

We all deserve a quiet night! :)

[waltersullivan78]

ein großartiger song mit sehr schönen bildern

[flasheeriiitaaah17]

i really love this song...the piano is just perfect to me :)

[ThePrice0]

it really calms one down:)

[TheChopinesque]

I like how you depict R.E.M. songs in pictures; creative.

[jd558]

The pictures have nothing to do with the song though. They are all major cities, the song is about a completely different setting.

Head like a F*cking orange.

Michael Scott should go to a managers conference somewhere like Manhattan and meet David Brent there, just for about 30 seconds.

It would be incredible.

[jamesthemarshall]

I can't understand why he wasn't looking both ways

"They did this on scum!"

[Tyler2004durden]

Ricky Rolled!

I'm not the biiiig R.E.M. fan, but there is a handful of songs by them, I like.

This is definitely one of them.

Absolutely beautiful!

I wanna go night swimming naked in a lake with my girlfriend. Feeling alive, happy and in love.

Oh! And.... Karl Pilkington!

(Ricky Gervais made me do it!)

[cutes22]

People say they go to the country to see the wildlife. I saw rabbits, pheasants and a fox...they were all dead in the road.

[13thfloor18]

How sad, Hit and runs probably and a sign that roads arent the best place to be,

Quickly get in the bushes, feel innocent and wondrous. Nature is efortlessly beautiful.

[susiefluffypuppies]

am i wrong in saying that gays should have their own little toilet... karl must believe this even stronger now

[musiciscrack]

Good luck to Karl ! have a good trip

[midgetsean]

Hahaha someone offered to suck Karl's cock in a toilet! Classic lol

I had this as my first dance for my wedding.

Its an amazing song my friends.

[thehappyfew]

One sweet choice.

[johnnywheatstraw]

I hear Kurt Cobain was the one who gave Michael Stipe AIDS, and that's why he splattered his brains all over the walls of his garage. What a shame. If only they would have just given each other hand-jobs and head, this never would've happened. It's so sad.

[DEFO81]

I'm Italian. Very nice song! Questa canzone dei R.E.M. mi fa ricordare il telefilm "Beverly Hills 90210" in particolare l'episodio quando Brandon lascia la serie. :-)

[bekerglas]

R.E.M Sucks

Nirvana = teh rule

[JJDvorshak]

@bekerglas

Kurt Cobain was a huge fan of R.E.M you know.

Nirvana is my favourite band, but R.E.M is a very good band too.

[rem857]

he and Stipe were best friends. It was said when R.E.M was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame, that if Cobain was alive, he would be the one giving the opening speech. it was so sad.

[JJDvorshak]

@rem857

Kinda feel bad for Stipe too...

He tried to get Kurt out of that empty house in Seattle to Georgia for a collaboration.

[rem857]

ouch. I like them both, but R.E.M. touches me so much deeper

[skaterbalty]

FUCK OFF SLAG

[hinata3kun]

Any other song pisses me off after I hear this one lol, so incredible!! LOOOOVE the piano, the lyrics are amazing if you know what its about :). anyway just <3 this song.

[lexmark136]

this song fukin sucks

[denis505]

Awsome song. Gotta love REM.

[AnarchyGuild]

could fall asleep forever to this song.

[85megakat]

This really IS one pieceful song.
