[buzzybee435vids]

2:13 epic

[KnHappyCamper]

Oh my goodness, I got scared for a second! I had thought this video didn't have someone dissing a 16-year-old pop singer yet, but thank god it did! I don't know how my day would've gone if people listening to this song didn't hear a joke about justin bieber!!

Besides that, great song. REM's a great band that everyone can relate to, as well as this song <3

[duks1111]

[TheSuperPiccio]

PERFETTA!!!!

[elprofejor]

I love this song, I love REM, but the harmonica is out of tune ...



[DAH210774]

It's always a good day when I hear R.E.M.

[ricki225]

minute 2:14 xDDDDD crazy?? aksjaksjaksj

[sansbh]

You all have a good day!!!!

Fans from brazil!!!

[redkopite4life]

Is there any doubt that REM and Radiohead are the two best bands on the planet? I know there isn't much competition but I'd put them both in the all time top 10.

[Silentjackal]

@redkopite4life REM, there's no doubt, Radiohead there's a lot of doubt.

[redkopite4life]

@Silentjackal Fair enough if that's what you think. I just hope you're not basing that on the songs Creep and High & Dry.

[johnclever1]

@Silentjackal My favorite band is Radiohead, i still love REM, maan, calm down, both are good bands.

[Jolie028]

GREAT!

[Bibi4112]

Agree there Mrearcheese! Today, most live bands suck! Michael is a true professional.

[windsurfpassion]

fantastici 

[windsurfpassion]

fantastici

[decayingBARpeople]

3:58 great dance!!!

[tnencia]

estupenda banda,,, los mejores,,, esperon vengan pronto a mexico

[mrkeiranharrysmith]

at 2.15 - how funny is that guy?

lol

[Garzization]

how can such a song give more shivers than everyone i've ever heard, i mean...COMEON! this song is such a masterpiece

[MrEarcheese]

This is how a concert should be.

Nowadays bands & artists autotune the shit out of themselves and when they do a live show they mostly end up in huge dissapointment because they sound shit live.

Michael is a hero, his goofy dancing, awesome voice and bald head. He's an icon.

[MrPatdaman1125]

why is the harmonica playing always screwed up for this song live? wrong key?

[xoxoayuh]

@MrPatdaman1125 Maybe because it's a bad day? :D

[billsurf101]

that idiot justin bieber has over 3 million hits...wtf???

[guitardevo]

@billsurf101 The world had a bad day when Justin Beiber was born.

[tomblomus11]

@guitardevo that's so unfunny you idiot.. take it somewhere else, we've heard it all before.

[Genu916]

@guitardevo and not a single f*** was given that day

[MsMcMarv]

bester song den es gibt (seit er bei scrubs war)

[cwestsupporter]

I think stipe and rem get overlooked a lot, they have some amazing lyrics

[MoPictures]

Love Mike Mills' bits. Not just his playing, but his little vocal additions. Wouldn't be REM without 'em.

[PBarnstorf]

it is so true that US external policies have been very wrong, but it is also very true that the strongest critics come from US citizens like this band. ;-)

[MrJivePirate]

@PBarnstorf fuck you, americans are bitches who are scared to even throw rocks

[PBarnstorf]

@MrJivePirate no need for aggression. I don't agree with you and I think you shouldn't generalize. I have not mentioned any "rock throwing", only US critics. I don't care if americans throw rock or not, but I do care when I know that some people inside disagree with its politics. it helps us (external citizens) to not generalize US people.

[ThePufferFash]

@MrJivePirate Although I don't like the majority of the American population (I live in the US) you'd be an idiot to think it's actually different here than it is in any other major country that can support itself. I've been to London, I've been to Luxemborg, I've been to Madrid, it's all the same.

[deanow2]

@ThePufferFash = goofus

[HeartcoreBass]

i hope they will never die

[Garzization]

this son is such a masterpiece ò_O sometimes these guys come out with songs like this one and i always i get stunned ._.

[themooddisorders]

rocks!

[alaindudu1]

That was just a great concert which I was happy to see!

Thank you Michael pour ce moment de bonheur!

[xDizzyrockerx]

Such a cool song, love the guitar intro! Have to learn that!!! :D

[gilbey92]

only 297,046 views thats shockin

[guerrerojose1979]

No me canso de escucharla, ea lo máximo y este video muestra la calidad voz del grupo. Keep the good work guys !

[SreckoMetallica]

its been a bad day,please dont take a picture........:-)

[wazzup057]

Great song but whats up with the harmonica???

[Nigelxman]

@wazzup057 What's up with your idiotic question?

[n1c4m1]

@wazzup057 Agreed!! Doesnt sound so good to me either.

[Plouminho]

Boilani2007 thank you for showing all and sundry how to miss the point.

[esteban21022]

Hello I show my music

[billsurf101]

I love REM, have seen them numerous times, but to be fair....not a good day over the last year, unemployment here is at 17 percent....homes lost, we are still in Iraq and Afganistan. Do believe whats good for the goose and all. They need to release a new version of this song relevant to now.

[ludvik199t]

I love michaels facepainting!

Great band!

[boilani2007]

I'm ASIAN but these REM band who is saying bad about AMERICA nooooo this is the most beautiful country in the world where you can find freedom. People are dying and selling everything just to come here and live with dignity. REM go to a country you want change your citizenship okey.

[DeadKennedysNirvana8]

The first thing you need to learn about the US is the freedom of speech. With out speaking up their is no change. This country is a very hypocritical country. We preach one thing but do the other thing we are preaching against.

[Owneador1337]

@DeadKennedysNirvana8 At least you can prech about it. When we lay a harsh opinion out in my country, the media, the old ladies and the moralfags everywhere make you look like a fascist/immoral person/etc and you have to say sorry or have your public honor questioned forever.

I envy that of you Americans. I say fuck political correctness.

[dietpepsi202]

@boilani2007

No ''Okey"- why don't you go back where you came from, we have enough people coming to this country and we certainly don't need you! REM=AMERICANS=THEIR COUNTRY=CITIZENS!!!!!!!

[juanetojones]

sorry the litle I understood of that is bollox american life isn't easy at all spetialy in a place like feet street and one of the great aspect of american life is how blues and rock are some of the things that keep these poor people going. They say that you can find freedom but they also say that reedom isn't free

[joanne0h]

@boilani2007

bahahahahahahaha

[russellmagic]

f***ing awesome

[bonebeast1991]

This is a band worth to be seen live! AMAZING!

[democrategirl]

Michael is Bi- he sees only love

[greeniem]

that was so gay lol . I love you anyway!

[217zenki]

real punk

[SchmockwithCream]

stipe's gay, but well i dont care! xD

[bonertron34]

that changes everything!

[Stra2casterAtHotmail]

lol that's what your dad said about you too! ;) jk. merry christmas.

[billsurf101]

They have been around for almost 30 years and still can write kick ass songs. This song is just so typical REM. Awesome as ever!!! Gooooooo REM.

[ripelivejam]

i love the harmonica part, even if it's completely out of tune lol

[billsurf101]

It's supposed to be out of tune..part of the "it's been a bad day thingy"...!!

[plimptonrocksmysocks]

y r his eyes always a wierd color???

[narcoticle]

people say to hide his identity

[ThePufferFash]

It's the "stripe".

[costascy85]

@plimptonrocksmysocks R.E.M = Rapid Eye Movement wich in psychology it's the periodic rapid jerky movement of the eyeballs under closed eyelids during sleep... so i guess he choses to paint his eyes because of this

[beaverboy007006]

BEST BAND EVER

[daccordhomer]

biancher, nobody here asked for your opinion...you don't like, fair enough, but in this case and only if you are cleaver, you just have to move...Otherwhise, keep masturbating!!

[Nigelxman]

biancher, you are quite simply an idiot. REM has a many excellent songs.  In your case, igorance is definitely bliss.

[pokzep]

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[tjorven777]

R.E.M forever!

[DAFSJ]

R.E.M Roxxxxxxxxxxxxssssss!!!!!!!! =DDDDDD

[Scionification]

These guys may be the most honest rock musicians ever. There is no B.S in them. Great musicians.

[sitiomaldito]

There's no bad day with you on this earth, Michael!

Go REM!

Cheerz from Argentina

[0oLuk4o0]

W R.E.M.

[boss1001]

This live version adds a whole new depth to the song after watching the music video.

[tcheli]

REM is fantastic band

[lienyrbt]

i love this song!!!

[jhondoe1981]

The Day REM is on stage is never a bad Day XD

[DjWooziXxX]

hahaha, thats a good one

[allaboutthemusicBOB]

@jhondoe1981 god that right ;)

[Element4078]

@jhondoe1981 got that right

[AlexBakerMusic]

Worlds better than Fuel's "Bad Day"

[Maccatn2]

@jhondoe1981 What if they brutally raped a young woman on stage for no apparent reason? Then it would be a bad day surely?

Me 1 You 0

[ifailmyexameagain]

@Maccatn2

how about you stfu and enjoy the song...?

[Maccatn2]

@ifailmyexameagain If you go play in traffic i promise ill sit down and enjoy this song

[thesnow92]

[jeepdad56]

Mike Stier owns the crowd/stage,,,,well deserved Hall of Famers

[TheMattia890]

senza parole........

[scemoneMA]

[Kiuygfvbmq]

Fantastic!!!

[nintendofan714]

WOW!!! Bad Day es una magnifica cancion, el sonido del bajo es genial y esta interpretacion esta genial, con armonica y toda la cosa FANTASTICO

[raiiden27]

Increíble. Esta canción es una pasada. Para que luego digan que los milagros no existen. jeje

[Kaidak]

Perfect

[ugiesmothey1]

love it almost as much as the beales

[Anapocaliptica]

Es una cancion impresionante. Staria bien que alguien que entienda un poco le hiciera una traduccion al castellano.

(porfi) ejjeje

[vitixl]

q buena cancion!!....excelente entre las 5 mejores de REM!

[slagmilkcard]

This song was the song that inspired R.E.M.'s hit "It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." This was written in the '80s about the policies of US president Ronald Reagan. It was finally released on their 2003 greatest hits album In Time with the theme of the song applied to the policies of president George W. Bush.

[joeab09]

At the beginning there is an awfull bit of pop from the microphone.... where you hear a big "Boof" noise..... that kinda proves its live.... that and the fact stipes practically sounds like a frog....

[Buddhist2k]

.. and not to mention the harmonica part, thats not on the album.

[HeeroYuyDekkers]

The intonation is different than the album version. 'Broadcast me a joyfull NOISE'

[Kaidak]

wow! It looks like playback. If it isn't, it's fantastic

[metalheadedfreak182]

I do not think it is as his voice is not like on the studio version, you can see how he changes a little bit =)

[bassfeile]

His voice is nearly broke down( may be to much gig's ), you can hear in the beginning... But the band feels great here ! Thank you

[Axl94Rose]

Or you should to learn another fucking language, not for use it, just for read a bit, you need it ;)

[NNinda]

I do, spanish, portuguese, english, FRENCH.

Your argument so faiiiils...

[DAFSJ]

?.?

[amirplanes]

One of the best bands on live

[Axl94Rose]

Why must we to talk in english? fuck you, this is not your home.

[NNinda]

You should at least learn to type it correctly, dumb fuck.

[AntuanLePorsch]

:) good viveo!

[mrspyahoo]

English, please ;P

[lounki]

touni9ye haber si rem te parece una mierda para que coño posteas en este video seguro que eres el tipico membrillo qeu oye regetton o alguna mierda asi en un cordoba amarillo tdi dando toda la pena.Saludos atontado

[sweetaction37]

Por supuesto Reggaeton es mierda.

[paxinpaxon]

por lo menos a qui los musicos tocan bien en esa musica no hay ni instrumentos ni voz  hasta yo se tocar una mesa de mezclas

[21yeaa]

[DerPoltergeist13]

REM makes the world a better place.

[rikyyy95]

[Majestic005]

LOVELY

[xxStageCrewxx]

Everyone at every concert should be like the fan at 2:15. : )

[aviuz80]

ciao sono gianni culo

[magio1991]

ciao sono pollo gnaggno

[ioioio2009]

great r.e.m.

[madbrendan]

the setting is verry hippy-esk i love it :)

[yaisum]

Michael's way with a lyric is like liquid gold. The way they flow is just amazing. Something to aspire to. love it.

[alenicsmom]

GOLD.PURE GOLD.

[Lefandurock1993]

I love all the songs of this band, REM is great !

[cvalley13]

I love Stipe's adorable goofy little dance at the end of this one.

[SaltyChuck]

My favorite R.E.M. song. Is that breaking some sort of unspoken lie?

[newmel2]

I was there. He lost his harmonica during the song...

[slontinka]

its very good song i think:)))

[bigfatphrankie]

By the way European countries as i find... SUCK. Bush... SUCKED,

: (SUCK/(ED) Ease of swallow for your new vocab)

: US never helped us. NORNIRONBUTNOT. (Work it out.) Anyone find any sarcasm in R.E.M'S lyrics? Maybe braindead? Maybe lost on you? I'm sure you cant rember you posting on this so...

lets all just get along.

"That's not the R.E.M way Michael!"

[bigfatphrankie]

Given being friends with Cobain do you think he wants to be spot on? Have you heard the original in comparison to this? Its amazingly close!!! You have to give it to the live record set up!

[hcss21]

hahaha!!

Incredible song!!! I love it!!!

Thanks 4 posting!!

[Nailonsokk]

It's a harmonica, damnit, you simply blow on it! It's impossible to compete with those other instruments for the same sound!

Ah, but yes, I love the song aswell, too bad I cannot find the original video on youtube.

[VSineQuaNonV]

I was wondering where the original video was, as well. It was here a minute ago. Youtube probably took it down during one of their inconsistent and poorly executed deletion tirades.

[mot726]

you tube couldnt agree a deal with some company who owned a lot of music videos about a new contract so thats why there aren't a lot of music videos around at the moment

[dufemi]

I love this song....... its nice video ......but this man can not play the harmonica

[SalazarReis]

So fucking good !

5*****

[turkeyjekey]

This is the 2nd part of the original song PSA(Public Service Announcment). The first part was "Its the end of the world as we know it(and I fell fine)".

[Issicra]

Yep.. it's a tandem song.. It's been my understanding that Bad Day came first though.. Buck and Stipe couldn't agree on the arangement of Bad Day, so Buck re-wrote it as End of the World...and that's what ended up on an album, and then a hit.

REM is well known for continuously re-writing their own songs. :)

[Mustikkakukka]

Dam they're really good live o_O

[guntorojati]

The harmonica is off tune I think

[Issicra]

Hehe... I don't think Stipe ever really learned to play. Lol... I think he just wings it.

Still a great song.. I want to see them in concert again. Haven't seen them since 1996
