Losing my religion is a southern expression for being at the end of one’s rope- pushed too far, so to speak. Love REM.
A friend of Michael's said it was actually how Michael thought people would judge him for being queer, at the time some were odd about such things. Thankfully nowadays people don't care & are far more openminded.......
@@GGGritzer Until its shoved in our face and we are forced to accept it such as videogames who censors and divides gamers on certain subjects. And movies as well.
The song is an all out masterpiece. Michael Stipe is such a unique gem
Dude's voice is something else.
@@jgilmer absolutely. Not like any other voice I’ve ever heard. Unique tone, unique phrasing and awesome unique vibrato
80s and 90s music is not easy to dislike. Many great artist.
This blew my mind when it came out…. Heavy rock is my thing, but the video along with his voice was what really sold this and made it such a massive hit.
Thats what I've always liked about REM.They have a unique sound.His use of the mandolin in this pop/alternative song is perfect.I never completely understood the lyrics.(Orange Crush)(Everybody Hurts)(Stand)(Drive)(It's the end of the World as we Know it) more REM songs to potentially check out.
Love love this song !!
In the South we say "I'm fixing to lose my religion" which means I'm about to leave my good Christian graces behind and go off in anger. 😬 Keep in mind most things in the South depend on tone or possibly have double meanings ex: "Bless Your Heart". However, "Lose My Religion" only has one meaning - you're taking me to the dark side. 😂
Michael bases it more off the loss of a relationship. It's really actually quite sad & obsessive. He keeps looking for little things to see of she is still interested but then pulls it back.
There is a lot of pain here:
“I thought that I heard you laughing,
I though that I heard you sing.”
When he gets to the line “oh no,
I’ve said too much,” it sounds devastating. 😕
BRILLIANT BAND! I LOVE R.E.M.😍
Well said Jen!! Thank you! 🙏💯
I remember when this song came out and was always on the radio, Very sad song with a great melody, great lyrics with a hook to it, catchy tune. Great song.
@@ErikD71 Nailed it! The paradox is a catchy upbeat melody - yet the lyrics are quite sad. I think many people missed that about the song. You go from "Shiney Happy People" which the lyrics match the fun melody to "Everybody Hurts" which damn, there's no mistaking that one. They threw us a wrench with this one. Good catch, Erik!
@@jennhurl Thanks ! :)
@@jennhurl Thanks ! :)
Such a talented singer.
The imagery in the video are different famous paintings. This song came out when I was in college and my art history professor used the video and showed us the paintings.
Early REM is my favorite. Driver 8, (Don’t Go Back to) Rockville, and then also Fall on Me, Superman and Hyena. For something really different from the typical REM sound, try Underneath the Bunker.
REM is Mt favorite band of all time. Their catalog of music is so deep and not one songs sounds like the other! Love Michael Stipe!
the song is about obsession and the loss of composure due to it.
REM (Rapid Eye Movement) are badass! Check out their songs "It's The End of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" and "Man on the Moon".
My faves by them are still '...End of the World (As We Know It)', 'Orange Crush' and 'Shiny Happy People.'
REM had a lot of variety among their albums. From soft slow emotional songs like Nightswimming and Everybody Hurts to harder stuff like What's the Frequency Kenneth?
Stipe wrote the lyrics after the music was all done. Came in and did it all in one take.
Did a similar job on Man on the Moon too. Recorded the lyrics the night before the album went off to be mastered.
It sounds different because there's no guitars. They use a mandolin instead.
This is one of their biggest songs. Try "Superman" for another sound from them.
You actually watching a "censored" video, because in original one there is a few seconds lasting scene, where one of the "accusers" of that angel, put finger in the angel's wound and move it inside the wound... it's actually kind of disturbing and a bit gruesome, but it is there in the "uncensored" version... This one don't have that scene, instead of that they put another view of one of those accusers pointing on the angel with hand. I remember it because when this video was released I was 10 and already then it was kind of stunning, that they show someone sticking finger to other one's wound. By the way the wound I'm talking about is on the angel's right side, just below the right nipple...
You can see the wound shot here: ruclips.net/video/0JebUqkC8oQ/видео.html it is the original unedited video. Cheers.
One of the stranger music videos you’ll ever see.
The song is repetitive but very engaging. A classic…
According to an interview I saw with lead singer Michael Stipe he said he got the idea for the lyrics from his long time girlfriend leaving him and he told someone that losing her was like losing my religion.
Oh wow I thought he’s gay?
Do you know what interview that was? The ones I saw said something different, so I would like to read or watch it. Thanks ☺️
The interview I saw he said it was about someone he had a crush on, but since he had not come out yet as gay, he wasn't sure how to approach them.
@@wanderlustaesthete4117 He is but at the time he did this song he was in the closet. And then shortly afterwards is when he came out. The women that was his girlfriend appeared in several of their videos. She's the girl with curly black hair in the video Pop Song 89.
Love this song
I love how you guys got so silent during this song! You can see the amazement on your faces!
Oh yah, the song pretty much stops you in your tracks and commands your attention.
You should check out "orange crush" by them ❤️ much more upbeat
This was the first rock song I remembered all the lyrics to
REM's lyric are a generally pretty deep.
Massive hit my man.He is a great writer.
My mom absolutely loved this song. She always said that reason why is that the words perfectly go right with the beat.
A story of unrequited love.
the classic song of REM
I suggest: REM - Orange Crush!
Check out REM and Eddie Vedder doing 'Man on the Moon' at REM induction into Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Peace from New Zealand
This song is legendary!
Love this song. I remember in the 90s hearing this song for the first time while watch Beverly Hills 90210 it was played on 2 or more episodes of it.
When Brenda nd Dylan break up, Lol she played this song over nd over.
@@wbishop1330 It was in more than that : This song appeared on several Beverly Hills 90210 episodes. But it was cut out of DVD version of the series and replaced by other songs because of right issues.
Beach blanket Brandon- Brenda and Dylan break up scene.
Down and out of district in Beverly Hills - Steve talks to Andrea in Peach Pit.
Parental guidance recommended - Brenda listens to it in her room. The whole scene was cut out of episode, released on DVD, because of dialogue between Brenda and Brandon - characters discuss the meaning of the song for Brenda and Dylan.
@@Nicole_Jewell oh, yeah I just remembered that episode. I didn't get to watch all the seasons back when they aired but I been meaning to binge watch em.
Thx 4 breaking it down with the info.
✌
@@wbishop1330 My pleasure
Can you react to soul asylums " Run away train"
Drive, Man on the moon, Night swimming and What’s the frequency Kenneth are my go to songs from REM.
My favorite song
I always feel this tune in my guts...somehow its so sad xx
I had heard this is about R.E.M.'s celebrity status. Once you enter the spotlight, everything you say, every action, and every opinion is scrutinized to the point where they lose their religion.
Classic Track From REM - Love This Song.
Such a heart-touching song ❤
May I suggest you listen to their song World Leader Pretend. My personal favorite and I haven't seen anyone react to it. Not sure which one you already did, but Superman is a good one as well.
Nightswimming 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Shiny Happy People is also a banger. Pride of Athens, GA. Sic 'em DAWGS
Love this song and band!
It's good to see Chrys(sp?) speaking up more 🙂.
How about some more Rolling Stones? Start me Up, She's So Cold, Beast of Burden, or Can't You Hear me Knocking.
For some 80s:
En Vogue- Free Your Mind
The Vapors- Turning Japanese
The Romantics- What I Like About You
Thanks!
All good 👍 songs.
Her name is Crystal. Just take off the end - CRYS. ❤️
This was the first song of theirs I heard in the UK.didn't get the lyrics.i thought he meant what he said that he was losing his religion especially as more people in America are religious than here it made sense to me.you learn new things every now and then.
The video and song according to the singer are about the ever shifting and complexe relationship between Faith / Religion, Art / Media and Homosexuality. The lead singer is LGBT+ and the video is filled with LGBT+ Symbolism and Iconography.
Fav song ever ❤️
Everyone who's raised by a narcissistic parent surely feel these lyrics.
This song I'm listening to it everyday.
Love your wife. She’s not fazed by anything. Ultimate poker face
UBerlin is a song by them about the city Berlin where they recorded. It has a different vibe and is pretty great.
Deep song
It's a song with no course. You should check out Shiny Happy People by REM with one of the girls from the B-52's. Its a great and uplifting song.
Artsey-ist music video I have ever seen..I had t stop a frame and print to paint it.
Remember on 90210 when Brenda & Dylan break up nd Lol Brenda kept playing this song over nd over.
This a good song tho. Also try "Low"
✌️
Everybody hurts sometime
You want to hear one real different from these guys? Just watch " Shiny Happy People'"
I was raised Foursquare Pentecostal when did I lose my religion 1972 I was 15 I believe in science
Radio Free Europe by REM!
FINALLY!!! 🙌 ...Can you please do
Rage Against the Machine- Bulls on Parade🤟🔥..AND then..
Denzel Curry- Bulls on Parade (cover) (like a version) 🙏🔥🙏🔥🙏
✨️ "Losing my Religion" is actually a saying in the South meaning, like losing one's temper or civility or feeling desperate and frustrated. Basically, losing oneself.
✨️ Also, the lyrics and video refer to the art and ideology of "Judeo-Christian Tradition" which was ment to include all and bring people together (Jewish & Christian). BUT instead it was more of excluding people that are considered non-traditional. Basically, biased, gossiping, judgmental people that dont practice what they preach. There is also the examples of someone growing up in a strict Christian household and then find out their gay OR a traditional married couple who want a divorce, but its against their beliefs. Anyway, great reaction 👍
He's done Bulls on Parade
@@FURTHER_ADO oh fk that right 🤦♀️ just not the Denzel cover, right?
You should check out Eighteen Visions - Victim
the aunt doesn't move an eyelash, she's very cold, she doesn't sympathize
♥️♥️♥️
react to the war in the bronx (YGz vs OGz vs SevSide
please do marlyn manson video sweet dreams its a creepy video also listen to mega death symphony of destruction you will love them both
You should react to Hozier Take Me To Church.. Great song and Video..
react to numbers by whoppa wit dat choppa and jdot breezy or some ksoo
Toujours aussi concernée à fond par le sujet la fille...
Would you react to my favorite band Shinedown “suggest “ Simple Man 👨” Sound of Madness”. Cut the Cord” they have just come out with a new single “ Daylight” it’s about the pandemic & our mental health problems. The are hard rock. Their on tour for there new album 💿 Planet 🌍 Zero” that single is out. They have been going for 20yrs, Brent Smith has the best voice in rock 🪨
It means to question your reality. Rewatch the video and look into history which they call “myth”.
Fun fact, the lyrics are complete gibberish.
A message was sent. But you are proof that sending a message does not mean it will be received.
Everybody Hurts is REM's slower paced song...many are more frantic than this. They have a ton of FIRE songs. Do "What's the Frequency Kenneth?"
When you were introducing your reaction, your wife (or GF if not married) seemed sad. Hope all ok. Aside from that, great music choice!
Get the song in centre! Not boobs😂 serious
Censored video. Wish the whole thing was shown.
Just to give you some background information bro. The lead singer is gay and this song is about his gay struggle with God. You can laugh but it's the truth.
You want lyrics? So put them in and stop abuse to put the video
