lmao with the happy birthday sighns and yes it was fucking cold that day im suprised they could move there lips hat off to REM for THE SHOW MUST GO ON BRAVO JUST FUCKING VRAVO
@seekermichael007 i was thinking the exact same thing...lol. it seems the band isn't even into the song as much either. in Toronto, it seems their were so into the song too as much as the audience.
do you idiots know how early bands have to be at the today show to perform? try 5-6 am. it ain't easy. plus it's cold and rainy and the live sound system fucking sucks out there and you're face with a bunch of fat tourists. cut them a break.
@VistaBoner come on...they've done the song probably a million times. for them to get up early and do it should seem like nothing to them. don't get me wrong, i like the song and the band.
hey ya dumb fuck, ever been to the today show with a band who was performing? i have. u get a short fucked up soundcheck, they bounce ur slot around so u never know when you'll get a 2 minute warning that ur on, it's fucking windy out there, and yeah it's damn early if ur a night owl like stipe, u can't just re-adjust overnight, it's nerve-wracking, then add the cheesy hosts, the brain dead idiots from toledo in front of u with happy birthday signs, and the very bad live sound.

@timreeder THAT MAY BE AN OLD POSTED QUESTION...BUT UNLESS THE TWO PEOPLE IN QUESTION ARE WATCHING YOUTUBE, WHAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT OF ASKING THAT RETARDED TWODDLE.
Wrestling -you are right , his voice is strained and weaker than usual here .Musicians have to be careful not to overbook , over-sing .Hes dressed business like .
Why does his own song tear him apart when he sings it? "losing my religion" is an idiom for giving up.... so whom or what did he give up on?

you don't know what you're talking about. believe me. it has nothing to with how many times they've sung the song.
