and according to the band, the song has no religious implication but is rather about an obsession with someone. The phrase “losing my religion” is similar to saying “going mad” or “losing my mind”.
at first i thought the song was literally about "losing your religion" (if u know what i mean..0_o)...now i feel dirty and wrong-minded,,,but i love this song anyways...
This song is about a selfless person who cares so deeply for a friend that they continue to try and help the friend even though the friend continues to put themself in conflicting situations and the person is the one who gets hurt in the end.
Wow, interesting. The video is indeed inspired by Tarkovsky's "The Sacrifice", particularly the first scene with the running people and the glasses falling down.
I swear to god! This video is so freaking symbolic! I just wanna know what they're symbolizing. It's like once you find the whole meaning of the song and video you find this as deep. And they look like italian renaissance art!
I still wanna know what the video and song mean! Can someone tell me? Please! I'd appreciate it! Thanks!
@rurusiddi, i believe that this song is about loveing someone who doesn't love you back. the whole song is talking about someone trying to show another that they love them, only to have that other be completely oblivious to everything you do. but every once in a while, you'll get that signal that they are really noticing you, only to have your hope crushed. losing your religion = losing hope in the person that you love
Back in 1991 I was heading down the Strictly Heavy Metal only route...then I saw this video on MTV and it changed everything. It taught me to broaden my horizons, I've been a fan of REM ever since as well as a wide variety of other types of music...but this song will always be special to me.
