I was so utterly in love then...REM was an obsession, then they went mainstream, Stipe went bald, and I sorta broke up with them. Same thing happened with U2...
It's great to see this video and sigh again like the dewy-eyed college coed that I was.
@ugeauxgrrl89 Me too - I sorta lost interest at "Monster". But everything they did before then still gets plaid to death on my computer and stereo. Absolutely loved R.E.M. Loved, loved, loved.
I saw them at the Fox in ATL 3 straight days around this time. it was X-citing if you know what I mean! this song is one of my faves from a band I grew up with, and 17 or 18 shows, im kinda fuzzy on the number
Geez I loved them so much before they became whores for the democrapic party

This is so good that it's heard to tell it's live. What a stellar live band they were, from the beginning.
