  • Muito bom, muito bom

  • This video is a favorite on Sarajevo

  • Don't ask me why, but when he asked "Right?" and everybody yelled "Right!", my eyes filled with water.

  • 1991 will be written with golden numbers in music history!

  • truly briliant .

  • end of the world

  • One of my favorite bands and songs from them but odd version. He sounds like Woody Harrelson while trying to sound like Dylan.

  • Comment removed

  • his voice is top notch. changed quite a bit now though age.

  • fantastic preformance

  • brilliant.............brillian­t

  • Mike Mills is such a dork

  • which asses dislike this awesome vid?

  • Oh, 1991, you were so long ago. The Simpsons on Thursday nights, and BH 90210 with pay phones and Shannon Doherty. And ACTUAL MUSIC on MTV.

  • i like the difference between his singing and speaking vioce.

  • GREAT BAND....

  • The five dislikes of this are not fans of rem

  • This is awesome, absolutely fucking awesome.

  • @ForeverFilms1995 I know it's maddening but hey good news amigo its available as a bootleg! I picked up my copy for £8.99 or $12

  • So Katy Perry's Unplugged concert was released as an album but R.E.M.'s wasn't? The world just doesn't make sense.

  • Comment removed

  • had to look up the words - HA!!!!!!

  • Yeah, best version!!!  ;)

  • wot a classic . love it !! :

    )

  • i really really love this version

  • prefer live versions of rem songs. you cant get any better than this.

  • Peter Holsapple seems to fit in the band so well.

  • t6he unplugged version :D

  • Those three are probably native Athenians who miss the band back in the old bar days and didn't like the commercial stuff. Gotta be the case. How the hell can you dislike this?

  • RIP REM, its been an amazing AMAZING journey : )

  • I heard a story that they won this "Battle of the Bands" once upon a time between them and another band named REM. They "won" the battle and the winner got to pick the name for the loser. I heard that they picked something very respectable. Which doesn't surprise me one bit.

  • This is my favorite version of this.

    RIP REM

  • Brilliant version of this song. I have just heard the news that my favourite group of all time have decided to split, so sad. Had to come here and listen tothis classic REM song.

  • Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

  • I remember watching this live. So funny, 'We had to get the words. On a computer."

  • The good old nineties!! Shows like "Alternative Nation", "Headbangers' Ball" and "MTV's Unplugged" all great shows!!!!

  • Acoustic cover of this song! If I don't see, I don't believe! great REM

  • awesome! thanks for posting : )

  • Living Legends

  • I love this song, i can sing every word!

  • Love this song

    To me it sounds like stipe is making a reference to those idiots predicting the raptures !

  • I wonder if Scott Litt produced this too.

  • dude even i memorized that song.

  • I had good friends from High School in Georgia that were friends with R.E.M. in Athens before they really hit it big. I saw R.E.M. in a small club in Athens and then my buddy who was an Editor for the Red and Black took me back to a house to meet the boys in the band and party a bit. Really laid back band, very refreshing.......

  • Ahh college days!!!! Good memories!!!!

  • spettacolo!

  • Relevant again!

    Then again in 5 months.

  • @Warpchy Every song they wrote is relevant at any time. It's uncanny. Part of their magic.

  • This makes me feel very old lol

  • wow mrjackkemp im sooo jealous, a lovely time of life!!

  • proper unplugged. awesome.

  • It's time I had some time alone.....The best lyrics in the whole song !

  • let we all just hug each other :D

  • Tomorrow is the big day lol

  • @CHEF2178 lol

  • "Feelin' pretty psyched." Love it!

  • In it's odd way--it works? As corny as this version sounds, it works!

  • can someone bring me back my jaw? it fell down somewhere...

    now I wonder why the hell I never knew about this video!!

  • It's funny that he couldn't remember the words. I probably wouldn't either. There probably aren't more words in the verse of any other rock song.

  • try listening to the faint. Expand ur browser capabilities god heheh

  • I am happy they have always remained so equally awesome

  • back when mtv was great

  • snooki took a dookie

  • mooki rocks

    

  • He looks so High at the begining!

    LEGALIZEEE

  • this was amazing!

  • its sad that mtv went from showing amazing bands like r.e.m to jersey shore and teen mom.

  • What a great fun unplugged concert this was

  • Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh The good old days!

  • i love the complete difference between michael stipe's speaking voice and his singing voice.

  • Where is MTV Unplugged gone. One Unplugged every 10 years? Ok. Alicia was finde, Alanis was.. but those shows are both long ago already...... I love R.E.M. Can't say less.

  • Still got the video of this. I taped it and played it constantly, my two kids are grown up now and they loved watching and listening to it. Brings back a lot of memories. Brilliant....

  • Wow Mtv had music?

  • Just heard this song watching Tommy boy. Awesome song!

  • Its been this long since MTV was pertinent. Its been this long since "musicians" were of talent, instrumental skill and of any interest. Guess I'll keep the 'pod loaded like a time capsule until anyhting changes.

  • Had this on bootleg... cassette!!!

  • I feel fine.

  • ♥♥♥♥♥ x 10..!!

  • GOTTA love the Syncronized, Chicken style head bop of the guitarists at 1:06

  • It;s Time I had some time alone!

  • The whole scene looks as if a bunch of Microsoft tech support nerds formed a band after getting tired of listening to Rush all the time. the acoustic guitars, the nasal-y cracking poindexter voices, the printed off lyrics, the collared shirts, and the oversized "I'm lost without you" glasses...

    oh god, it's a beautiful sight. I wish there were more bands like that.

  • This guy is so charismatic!! Love his smile...and the voice...ooooooooooh!

  • mtv used to be about music, but now its about pregnant teenagers

  • No dislikes!

  • Someone should make a new channel to replace the old MTV that plays good stuff for real.

  • Great band! They don't make 'em like that anymore. :(

  • how i wish mtv unplugged era be backed from out of time. glory days are over perhaps. people u gonna miss this especially if you're a teenager on the early 90s fucked am getting senti.... remember nirvana oasis pearl jam blur etc. shit those days are gone.....

  • YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • Ligabue l'ha copiata trasformandola in " a che ora è la fine del mondo"

  • @villecco89: non l'ha "copiata", ma ne ha fatto una cover

  • I wish they would release an "R.E.M. - unplugged" album like they did with Nirvana :D

  • Demais!

  • Damn I love the guitar in this song!

  • anyone else who see the similarity between Buck and Jimmy page? :)

  • start this at 0:18

  • VERY nice version, this one :)

  • exactly.... when mtv was worth watching [2]

  • back when MTV played music

  • Apparently he feels fine lol

  • @duracellaltoids would have voted it up, except that you put lol on the end

  • back when mtv was worth watching......

  • @Etexhoss I agree. When MTV was about the MUSIC

  • @Etexhoss Do you not like Jersery Shore? HAHAHAHAHA! VH1 Classic is the only way to go these days. Totally '80s is the shit.

  • @Etexhoss Exactly! MTV has become a reality joke!

  • @Etexhoss

    Back when songwriters actually had something to say...

  • Outstanding video, it sounds like surround.

  • Compleately timeless!!!

  • He does the "Time I Had Some Time Alone" line in this version, it's so missing from all the others. Best live version of this song hands down.

  • @sirsancho

    eddie vedder does that line well i think its listed to the right as rem with eddie vedder!

  • Is Best Than Of The Original/Normal Version! ♥

  • This is EPIC...

  • i was at that show!

  • @MrJackkemp

    Really? That must have been fucking awesome!

  • @MrJackkemp

    dude..its Mike Stipe.. the guy who inspired "how to disappear completely" in Kid A Album of Radiohead

  • @MrJackkemp Where and in which year was it?

  • @MrJackkemp how were you able to attend one of the unplugged shows?

  • @danmang92 he blew the door man lol

  • @MrJackkemp you're a lucky bastard

  • @MrJackkemp And I bet Bill Murray stole your french fries

  • Madonna ragazzi l'ascoltavo quand'ero piccolo che emozioni non sapevo fosse dei REM che figata ho le lacrime!

    -Pìu amo l'Italia più odio gli Italiani-
