    1 Outsiders

    2 Leaving New York

    3 Losing my reigion

    4 Man on the Moon

    5 Electron Blue

    6 End of the world That is it I have not heard all of thier music from the other albums and maybe there are some more good songs. But for the most part all of their other songs suck especially most of everything (else) from the from the

    90's.

  • AWESOME thats music

  • beautiful! :)

  • that's real music, let's fight the house!!!!!!!

  • .

    gaiL :)

  • Why do you have to draw gay-bashing into a comment on a "great song?" Can't you just say that the song is good, and keep your opinions to yourself? People who really are fans of R.E.M. obviously don't care about the fact that Michael is bisexual, and we don't want to her your prejudiced views.

  • well said...theres always one that has to leave the twatty comment...

  • God bless London, New York and Barcelona. Gret song. Allways Rem

  • I woke up with this going in my head this morning. My dreams are trying to tell me something I feel...

    Airports are weirdly evocative aren't they. /pretentious comment.

  • they totally are. I love airports.

  • Well..the devil's playground i feel

  • So beatiful song by R.E.M

    Love it.

  • Rem is a good alternativ rock, they have the music into of their heart, I could lisen them everyday and I wouldn't to be borned I always enjoy lisening, In my opinion Rem is wonderful.....,

  • I love this song! R.E.M are amazing

  • woah - gappy that is the best comment...

    God bless whereever any of us come from for crying out loud...

  • amazing

  • Hamallah to Salhamha hadyjja tyinks ma sadhajja!Salamaleycom!!

  • good

  • Its was not easy for Homer Simpson to leave New York

  • sinep!

  • Brilliant song. One of their most underrated and such a poignant video. Strikes a real chord with anyone who's ever moved countries.

  • GOD BLESS NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!!!

  • But not any other place?

  • new york city,also know as the "city of the dreams"... why not NYC?

  • It just annoys me when people say God Bless one place, e.g. "God Bless America (R)" - why not God Bless Wales/Iceland/Romania?

  • No one would bless Wales.

    I find this song not unacceptable.

  • God Bless London.. Or God Clean it up xD

  • jeden z najlepszych utworow REM:) uwielbiam

  • GOOD

  • This song is so touching. I left my country, my family, my love behind, to try too succeed in a foreign country. Anyway, this song is just beautiful, and REM is one of the best bands ever. : )

  • Leaving NYC is the best advice I can give anyone. However, that means that filth will be living elsewhere, so I only advise non-liberals to leave the city.

  • you are right!!

  • YO fui al concert en Peru el viernes 14 de nov. Fue genial, si tienes la oportunidad no te lo pierdas, aunque sea vende tu riñon, peor ve a su concierto!!!

  • i love this song "It's easier to leave than to be left behind"! its true!

  • i mean one of the best SONGS ever :D

  • one of the best sons ever!

  • I told you forever....I'd love you forever....you never, you never....told me forever.......That's my fave bit of this song-it's very apt for me right now and is hard to listen to, that and Make it all Ok, a split with my fiancee after 5 years when we met at an REM gig, let's just say I am so glad they didn't sing these live at the gigs I was st this year!!

  • This is my favourite song ever! Perhaps REM's best one...

  • Great song....for sure ,beeing left there was not easy

  • awesome song the best on Around the sun album

  • It's quiet now

    and what it brings

    is everything.

    Comes calling back

    a brilliant night

    I'm still awake.

    I looked ahead I'm sure I saw you there.

    You don't need me to tell you now,

    that nothing can compare.

  • Seguramente no tocaran esta cancion en el concierto del 14 (no he visto que la toquen alive) pero es una de mis favoritas. La melodia es muy armoniosa y la letra es, a diferencia de otras canciones del grupo, bastante clara y franca. Solemne y nostalgica a la vez.

  • no la tocaron! y es una cancion preciosa T_T ojala vengan d nuevo, s ls va a xtrñar!

    hasta la prox REM!

  • great song , didnt know that Hugh Fearnley Wittingstall was in REM though !

  • i can identify with the song very good

    i am abroad one year from germany and it is always difficult for me to leave my homecity hamburg

  • It's easier to leave than to be left behind...

    Great song

  • my fav Rem song. If this song was on a more popular album than around the sun it would be far more popular. I love love it.

  • The best

  • yeah, just look how hard it was for homer to leave!.

  • De toute façon REM ça déchire ! ;)

  • 14 noviembre em peru!!!!!

  • *_*

  • nice song even thought(i dont even know whether its correct spelled) im from europe... please elect a good man....

  • isn't this a song about his response to sept 11th?

  • i think so its easy to tell that thats wat hes talkin about wen he says,"u mite hav laughed if i told u"

  • In the end when he is looking over a sunrise, I believe that is the skyline that would have shown the twin towers.

  • this is so good!

  • No puedo creerlo REM en Peruuuuuuuuuuuuu

    Es un orgullo tenerlo aqui

  • YO LO TUVE EN ARGENTINA,Y LOS VI

  • pues suerte la tuya Yo vivo en Arequipa y temo que yo sepa las entrdfas se agotaron excepto las mas caras :(

  • I Love New York O___O

  • taht`s means to me NY is not the USA it`s foreigner into

  • R.E.M in Peru is going to be the best concert ever in this country!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 14-11 R.E.M. Lima, peru

  • This song reminds of how many retarded poeple there is in this world

  • This song reminds me of top quality diamonds of Harry Winston on 5th Avenue, New York, NY United States of America. "The blue dot of the Universe".

  • this song reminds me of broccoli

  • lol!!

  • this song makes me think to crash bandicoot...

  • It doesnt remind me of that.

  • This song reminds me of those peanuts you get in a pack of shelled peanuts that are like three peanuts growing together in one shell.

    Yeah.

  • how have i not heard this song til recently?!

    man...i love r.e.m.

  • love R.E.M

  • They have right ,Leaving New York never easy

  • IS BEAUTIFUL

  • to loria and qasem:

    i dont know about american people, but i certainly know about asian people..i ve lived with them. and trust me, for 85% of people when they do a favor to you, they usually expect u to give back something, sometime...they are veeery polite tough, but we dont have to see their "opportunism" as a terrible thing (well, it is for us, but not for them: it's just a matter of culture....)

    that's it.

  • einfach nur megaaaa geilo!

    LOve REM!

    support + push them!

    greetz from germany!

    (SICKSADWORLDCLAN)

  • w odor

  • ehi qasem1986 I want to know the climate of your Country!!!!!!! In my country(the southern Italy) the climate is mild almost all the year. Answer pleaseeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

  • you give tell me what you want to ask me, qasem1986!!!!!!! Also I want to talk to you!!!!!!!!!!

  • beautiful

  • what is frown?

  • :) Los Angeles, but :( NY

  • I don't like at least the USA, but I like Asia. At least the asian people are satisfied with few things and they are very hospitable (and they don't ask you nothing in change), while the american people know how to be hospitable, however I have the feeling that if the american people entertain you to proper house, later they always want to wait him for something from the guest. Then for the american people, but also all the west, the presence of the guest is not enough only for him.

  • yes loria u are right ,u have more idea about the asian people so talk to me plz there are more thing I want to tell u

  • Man when he sang this in New York it most have been one hell of a show!

  • Jajaja, you're right.

  • A+ in the USA, instead 10+ in Italy

  • I just heard this on the radio for the first time in years and... wow, this has to be one of their best songs ever.

  • i would like to see new york and die.they say ny is rome of today...

  • well you would probably die there because someone will shot you...

  • iZgleda da je veca mogucnost da ce te roknut u Zagreb nego u new york majstore

  • pa, kako je sve krenulo, bojim se da si u pravu... ovo više nije zagreb kakvog sam poznavao...

  • nisam bio u zagreb nikad ali ako bog i finansije dozvole sledece godine cu vjerovatno.kad je najbolje i najjeftinije opichit tammo par dana majstore?

  • pa, nemaš neko pravilo, uvijek ti je cijena ista, al bi ti preporučio negdje na ljeto jer je tad najmanja gužva. ili po zimi, tad je isto lijepo...

  • Jajajajaja, JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA

  • I don't like NY but I like Houston(Texas)

  • Ufo in New York. is it possible?

  • i love this song and bad day, can you tell me some else great rem song???? please!!!

    PS: i'm sorry for my english XD

  • Chupi you should check out Find The River, Strang Currencies, Lotus, Hollow Man, Nightswimming. Those are just a few

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!

  • This song is so good. Though it depresses me that this song is followed up with a load of wank that is Around The Sun. Now don't get me wrong, I love R.E.M. and I own all their albums but that album was sooo boring.

  • r.e.m...this song is awesome..it remembers me of jfk airport...while I was leaving new york

  • I had the same feeling.... all the good memories!

  • KLASS SONG

  • It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart)

    Leaving was never my proud (change)

    Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart)

    I saw the life fading out (change)

    Leaving New York, never easy (it's pulling me apart)

    I saw the light fading out (change)

    Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart)

    I saw the life fading out (change)

  • ... I LOVE YOU FOREVER ...

  • And english people are very...ugly!

  • Then I like England but I hate english people...

  • ...and the english people are never satisfied with anything, they think only about themselves same, they are very kind and refined only because they feel him forced, they are sceptic, they are not borne alone. According to me it is for this motive that the most greater part of the sightings UFO they occur especially in England, really because the alien ones would like to change their stupid mentality...

  • poioi einai autoi ekei piso... oi aderfoi katsamba???? :-P !!!!!
