dumdane you're a dope. I googled Hardinger's song, listened to it, and I'll agree there are two similarities. 1) a man is singing 2)someone is playing a guitar.
This is so clearly a poor rip off of the legendary Michael Hardinger song "Walk, mand!!" from 1981. Just totally sad to see REM's lawyers do their dirty work without a clue.
Poor Mike! He's crammed back there trying to play. I giggled right along with Stipe whenever they hit a bump. I lost it at the end when Mills says, "It's like trying to play in a cement mixer." Now THAT'S a true professional when you can play in a moving van and STILL sound great!
Wait until you hear "Living well is the best revenge", "Horse to water", "I'm gonna DJ" or MSW... As powerful if not more than Kenneth, Wake-up bomb, Departure, Revolution, etc.
I adore REM but this song doesn't blow me away. 'Living well' would have been a better single, the video is also kinda cheap, considering they are back after four years. I am looking forward to the rec.
in fact on my 200th watch now and it keeps getting better. Possibly one of the best youtube videos ive seen and ive seen Robbie Williams pushed off stage
Wow. 10 years haven't been kind to Peter Buck's grill.

I don´t know what happened to rem. they seem to have lost their force. stipe looks so tired and powerless.

I think it's the third hour they were doing the song around the NYC. Look how pissed Peter looks =P they ARE tired of playing it over and over again.
And it's gonna be a REALLY POWERFUL ALBUM.
