R.E.M. Find the River

[Biscuit75]

The drums sound so wrong.

[mantra3000]

Incredible how they sound and look like a cover band now. The melodica sound emulated on keyboard is absolutely tasteless.

[rpae11family]

great album ever....

[wigglesworth6969]

stipe,admit it,yer absolutely terrible here with this drummer.

[AnneConnolly5]

ardgilan castle 2005... happy days :)

[LomtickofToast]

By far my favourite song by R.E.M. I always pretended to have trouble falling asleep as a kid so my Dad would play this on the guitar for me.

[knopfler720]

Ah man, what a memory from high school. Loved this song!

[khekkkkkk]

- happy 50. birthday Michael!!!!!

- knopfler forever, going home :))))))

[faraway3000]

Such a beautiful song - to be able to project so much into one song just amazes me.

[democrategirl]

I love this song. Michael expresses so much feeling. This is up there with one of my favorite R.E.M. songs.

[bodyfitconcepts]

This is why I started writing music. Michael really put his heart in these lyrics.

[Drinkusik]

I love REM this song is great.

[Drofbagin]

Man, this album had so many singles...i still think Monty Got a Raw Deal should have been a single, too....

[planeador21]

bellísimo :)

[karaninakaramazov]

I think this is one of their best songs. I love it.

[leonalvesilva]

MY favorite song.

its wonderful.

[freddysinf]

la più bella canzone in assoluto dei REM

[manuelemister]

come si chiama quello ccanzono loro che ora fa da colonna sonora a g d'arco?

[remnrone]

Its fabulous the drum should hav played a 16-beat on the ref though

[Akustinen10001]

second best song of automatic for the people. Man on the moon is of course the best

[singler1]

What is the deal with the blue around Stipe's eyes? The song is awesome

[lordtrax8]

yeah, and nobody ever asks what's with Bono Voxe's sun glasses all day (and night) long. why does everyone have a problem with the paint around the eyes? every front man has all rights to be eccentric in a way ;)

[geridg]

Peter Gabriel would dress up as a flower with Genesis back in the seventies......so who knows. I think it looks kinda cool. Like a "new wave" American Indian in war paint!

[singler1]

This is a fabulous song from Automatic for the People, which is a great cd

[kayonalarsen]

Love this, Thank you  for posting

[Caraninaxo]

They are amazing live,

[gapage]

Incredible lyrics by an incredibly talented band...the words resonate strongly...I've got to leave to find my way!

[jd26xxx]

there song writing was not as good after berry

[RAPIDEYEMOVEMENT358]

This song is so good, one of REMs beautiful songs

[stipey104]

Terminator I tried to respond to your email but your account is closed? What's up with that?

[Terminator7653]

yes Berry was great but Rieflin is also great

[Swisstian]

The piano in it is so beautiful

[mervotheperv]

we miss you Bill Berry

[terminator1111111]

This song is so Beautiful

[khekkkkkk]

if iam somewhere, this songtext is, which the first in my mind ( coriander steam and rose of hay, watch the rode and memorize etc )so i love it - but only after country feedback

[lovestipe]

great!

[winstonthefan]

This song along with Night Swimming are two of the most perfect songs ever written

[WaszWuj]

totally with you, man. Let me shake your hand. In Poland - my country, we would drink some wódka for this

[winstonthefan]

Consider this a toast and a handshake!

[Kamilalala8]

Je prefere d'autres chansons, mais t'as raison - les deux sont belles quand meme :)

więc najlepszego, za REM ;)

[gentilpirate]

I love Contry feedback, but Find the river is the most hopeless song of r.e.m. song....Automatic for the people best album....

[delpotte]

the most beautiful song ever <3 just love it :)

[shepherdspieuk]

Seer sex

[tool123923]

One of my favorite R.E.M. songs! :)

[stipey104]

He actually has one of the best live voices I've ever heard. Have you even been to an R.E.M. concert? Open your ears more.

[lupoforme]

you are so right. he has one of the best live voices, i always enjoy REM live.

[penelopefast]

If they sounded exactly like they do on their albums when they played live, they would be Britney Spears or Ashley Simpson, now, wouldn't they? That's kind of the point of a LIVE show. You should be watching MTV if you want the "exactly like the album" sound.

[helperos]

Automatic For The People last song.

Wonderfoul Record!!

[jazzman70]

fave rem song art the mo - sad and upliftng at the same time ! ?

[cassistomer]

there's a version of this song on tourfilm if i'm not mistaken. does anyone have the mtv unplugged version mentioned before?

[newhat07]

Tourfilm chronicles their 1989 Green World Tour--three years before this song was written.

[IIIIIIII]

This is definitely in their top five best songs. It's certainly the best song on AFTP.

[Generalk]

Why isnt Ken doing the backing vocals? His vocals on the MTV unplugged version are better than Mike and Scott's.

[derjonas31]

does anyone know where you can hear the unplugged version?

[andrewk21]

In the album version, Mike does the high harmony and Bill the low harmony -- they probably decided Scott's voice is lower and more fitting for the low harmony? I think Mike sounds great, as usual (and he sounded great in the version with Ken, too), and I feel like Scott's backup comes closer to sounding like Bill's from the Tourfilm version.

[skyblugirl]

Thanks for posting! This is one of my favorites!

[davidpetersontalk21]

Love this song - brilliant harmonies on the chorus. Has anyone got the version from MTV unplugged a few years ago?

[dastipe]

in my opinion this is one of their best ever songs and should have been on their greatest hits album.

[dastipe]

brilliant song

[sanchez1960]

the road movie is better with the violin!

[lwy00]

Thanks! 1st live video of this song found so far.

[EclipseNT]

great rendition. thanks for posting!
