R.E.M. - I'll Take The Rain (Official Video)

[76atma]

Beautiful,simple and amazing.

[thepinkmist23]

Christ how high were they when they came up with this video?

[Masta420]

@thepinkmist23 They were as high as they needed to be... ;)

Personally I couldn't care less if they were so high their eye's glowed red like fire and their skin turned blue and white, you do whatever it takes to find inspiration for such a masterpiece.

Next to Losing My Religion and Man On The Moon this is one of their best works in my opinion. :)

[giulietta2105]

Grazie per la canzone dei R.E.M.....

quel volo e' quello che preferisco al di sopra della pioggia con la pioggia...dove tutto e' in movimento dove tutto si ferma e se il vento accarezza il viso arriva fino dentro al sorriso...

Corro verso la pioggia e se piango sappi che e' solo di contentezza...

Ti voglio bene.

Giulia

@giulietta2105

Tornerai a prendere tutta la pioggia...e ci sarà anche chi asciugherà le tue lacrime,anche quelle di dolore...ti voglio bene.

[ignaciomnb]

Amo esta cancion, es muy buena, excelente letra y video, porque son tan buenos R.E.M ???

[Marcio227]

Youtube answer me one thing: Why does only my views in this video?

[pxe]

@Marcio227

I'm curious if there was a time, maybe 1,000,000 posts ago, that these comments were seen as cool/witty/amusing/relevant/ge­nerally worth the effort of typing and posting. I must have missed it, if so.

[Dookiebassplayer7]

@pxe Your reaction to it isn't that amusing neither

Is it imposible to just focus on the great music and forget about the comments?

[pxe]

@Dookiebassplayer7

Good thing it wasn't meant to be amusing, then.

And I generally do focus on what I'm watching/listening to, but seeing a comment like that for the billionth time, I had to question it.

[vns667]

one of their best video clips ever shot



[satcfan1509]

God bless guys. The poetry you gave us will live on forever and I fele honoured to have been lucky enough to have seen you live 3 times.

Adore this song and video, just beautiful

[matros1203]

who created this clip? :D a dog scatebording in piramide.. ? :D

[rogerchang83]

My absolute favorite R.E.M. song!.. and it was very hard to pick just one. I'm so sad that I never got to see them live before they called it a day. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they'll have a reunion show/tour someday...

[obccy22]

I LOVE YOU.

[brnvg]

if this is what you're offering....i'll take the rain...that rain that cames from my heart

[oemandalis85]

Maybe one of the best songs of the Album Reveal (2001) and maybe one of the best songs of REM.

[Gerowaits]

this is one of my favorite videos ever; r.e.m. pull off pathos and empathy without being maudlin which is tough. very heart warming song/video.

[a9zbv]

One of my all time favourite bands!!!... I was majorly upset about their breakup in Sept 2011. Long live Michael Stipe, Mike Mills & Peter Buck... you guys were and forever will be legends!!!! Love and respect from South Africa.

[lopezc02]

Such an underated REM song. Just brilliant IMHO. Thank you, REM. Missed.

[madbcc]

rem always was and will probably always be my favourite group on the face of the Earth. 4ever «3333333

[armaverga]

Non sarà più lo stesso senza i R.E.M.

[coolcsi18]

amazing song!!!!!!!!

[berletka]

REM i know what are you chasing..... this is changing me as well .....

grate song !!!!!!!! 

[metramil]

simplemente barbaros,que gran grupom nos a dejado!!!

[sims3forever1]

this song allways reminds me her smile!! but this smile of her was never mine! :(

[MissButterflyArg]

It helped me too after a break up... it's very sad and truth..

if this is what you're offering, i'll take the rain (always there and crying with ypu... making you feel you're not alone, never)

[Annatheprincezz]

I love songs about rain. I write them myself as well. This proves R.E.M. has always been my band. I loved them so much. I still love them. Gradually I'm beginning to understand why they quit. It's typical for them. Doing what they want to.

I will miss you guys. You have been very important to me. Thank you.

[LeWhiskers]

This is the song I was listening to when I heard of their split up.

I turned it up loud for the chorus, sat back and just remembered all the good times I've had because of R.E.M.

Such a beautiful song.

[Rathje85]

I miss my dog

[DrainedPunk]

One of the last bands offering real music is gone :(

[HannahGrahamOfficial]

Am going to cover this song in memory of the greatest band I've ever come across. :') RIP REM.

[brewluvr]

When I saw this video, I was reminded of my dearly departed dog Phoebe. Now watching it makes me cry. This is such a beautiful song.

[szczurekamila]

Buuu.. :(

One of the greatest bands ever, brought me a lot of emotions, and i associate many of my sweetest as well as painful memories with REM songs, their music was a kind of soundtrack for my life.

[mydecae]

rip REM .....remenbered forever

[Lawrencelock8]

A heartfelt and very fond farewell to worldwide alternative rock inspiration R.E.M.... Through Everybody Hurts to Losing my Religion, R.E.M. have been the emotional soundtrack behind mine and so many other fans' lives. I think I speak collectively when I say we will miss them greatly. Michael, Mike, Peter and Bill - we salute you!

[lisaepo]

:(

[Alialbarn]

I knew you when

I loved you then

In summer's yawn, now hopeless

You laid me bare

And marked me there

The promises we made ...

[Alialbarn]

Amazing album amazing Song <3<3<3!!!!!

[Bonidex]

Guys, do yourselves a favor and listen to Jars of Clay. You'll love them too.

[Ultimomonodelanasa]

I love this song. Only REM can make feel it this emotions... just the cold rain falling over us!

[LjungbergArsenal]

The song and the video compliment each other perfectly. The are both equally just so simple and beautiful.

[Lawrencelock8]

As with all of R.E.M.'s songs, there is the lyrical depth and emotional scope to arrive at several different interpretations. My personal interpretation would be that this song is an acceptance that some are lucky enough to live easy lives whilst others must struggle daily. The speaker is accepting that he's been dealt a bad hand but is resolving to make the most of his life. However it's interpreted, it remains an extremely emotional and first rate song, one of my favourites... Vive R.E.M.!

[burkezillar]

What album is this off? I've got most of theirs but haven't heard this before.

[Lawrencelock8]

@burkezillar Reveal. 'twas released in 2001 and is available from all the usual places, Amazon/Itunes etc. Enjoy!

[DCNautaTube]

@burkezillar "Reveal". :-)

[99shows]

Gorgeous, really gorgeous. Can anyone tell me what exactly it is about? I'm guessing he's singing about how he'd take all the bad days and events as long as he is with that special one?

[peniche311]

Beautiful work.

[randomwalri]

Great video

[TheDjma4u]

you can find the sun..that's where were all from..loved it.....

[heathasmith]

For some reason I've never been able to shake the feeling that this video was fan-made... just feels a bit too amateurish for R.E.M.'s usual standards...

[hannahdru1]

@heathasmith That's actually what I love about this video, it doesn't fit their stereotypical type they'd normally do.

[hannahdru1]

Wonderful song :) Love you guys.

[boko6565]

What the hell was that.

[zhlchlv]

ninth

[lovelaj0149]

how many of these things are new and just re uploaded?

[heathasmith]

@lovelaj0149 None of them are new. None of them are new. None of them are new.

[lovelaj0149]

@heathasmith

sorry i did'nt get the memo that all of the old caset tape videos were coming to youtube sorry for being a teenager that likes R.E.M.

[REMsleeper428]

I'd just like to say thank you. I listened to this song after a bad break-up. Helped me a lot. :')

[Morecrowbar]
