  • My favorite REM song!

  • Often misinterpreted as a love song, this is just the opposite. Michael Stipe describes this song as about using people over and over. It's deceptive because it could be a love song until the line, "A simple prop to occupy my time."

  • is it just me or does the start sound like the guitar to whats the story morning glory?

  • R.E.M are my favourite band of all time, and this is a missed swan in a river of black birds, it's one of the bet track they did.

  • One of my all time favorite songs!!!

  • this and losing my religion rocks my mind all day!

  • so sad that the lead singer is a fag!!!

    great song other wise.

    oh well what u going to do? be PC? i guess

  • @bluegrassreb wha's up with the HATE?

  • @scareykattuk no hate just a disagreement.

    i have gay friends. (2 ) but i am a christian and well... i aint the judge or the jury, but i know what the judge has said on this matter!  dont get me wrong i love rem and queen, and elton john. peace to u and yours!

  • @bluegrassreb "I have gay friends"? You've just lost any right to speak. You do know that the first thing an X-bigot says is that "I have X friends"? "It''s so sad he's a (impolite word for a gay person)?"

    For fuck's sake, Christian person, shall we reverse it? "Bluegrassreb loves bluegrass, and I have friends who love it too. So sad he's a Christian, though."

    Feel good?

  • @veinknamjenbi all i said to u was "we have a disagreement... peace to you and yours"

    and all u do is throw it in my face because i use the word fag? too bad he is a fag. too bad because he has some great songs! but music making isnt everything. Living properly is!

    i dont hate anyone, but i can hate what they do. I have often thought that he is an atheist too but i dont hold that against him and say that his songs suck. and all of us have the RIGHT to speak! sorry that u dont like what i said

  • @bluegrassreb "all i said to u was 'we have a disagreement... peace to you and yours'"

    I think you're confusing me with someone else.

    "music making isnt [sic] everything. Living properly is!"

    Does 'living properly' include not judging other decent people by what they do in their own bedroom?

    I'll acknowledge your right to speak when you acknowledge mine to fuck whomever I want. Until then it's stalemate, mate.

  • @bluegrassreb im also a christian but that was rude you need to think jesus loves all not just the pepole you think are good just because someone is diffrent dos not make them bad. god makes us however he wants and thats all we can be and also hes not gay hes bisexual look it up now im not gay nether are you and its none of our bussines how others feel so be cool and dont meddle in things that arnt for you to change and have a great day

  • A little similar to oasis morning glory

  • @folladordeprostis Pop quiz: which was written first?

  • 7 people dont have have a girl to get in love :D

  • @arsenios13 did you even listen to the lyrics?

  • @arsenios13 hahahaha

  • I've always thought this a bit of a rip-off of 'Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black)' by Neil Young. As well as ANYTHING by The Searchers. Still a great piece of music, though.

  • Caroline wallner is the chick in this video, She also is on Facebook man time is cruel to people,

  • @crazytrain22911 shes so..mean...omg....

  • @crazytrain22911 send me the link

  • @crazytrain22911 I'm sure she'd be delighted to read that

  • this one goes out to the one i fucked in the behind

  • This might have been mentioned - I'm not wading through page upon page of comments to check - but Oasis stole from this. Shame they - Oasis - managed only about three good songs while REM have dozens.

  • @blank5317 is there a specific Oasis song that steals from this song?

  • fire!!!!

  • FIRE!!!!

  • The good old times... thank you, REM.

  • this brings back good memories regardless of the content of the song,,,,,,

  • Alton Brown, the food network Iron Chef dude, was director of photography on this video. Pretty cool! :-)

  • @PublisherPaulie Think they knew each other in Athens, Ga.?He was a film student while they were making it out of college rock, and Stipe's got a film side.

  • great song, very strange video.

  • THIS ONE GOES OUT TO THE ONE I LOVE-MY HUBBY-NICK !!

  • @21GUNSRICK This isn't a love song, just so you know ;) It's actually about "using people over and over again" and is "incredibly violent" (the words of Michael Stipe). This is kinda obvious by the lyric "A simple prop to occupy my time". Just sayin.
