      This video was most likely inspired by the video to the song „Wolnosc słowa” by the Polish band Püdelsi, who supported REM in their concert in Warsaw and whose album with the song (and the video) had been released shortly beforehand.

    This is definitely my favorite REM music video. This band is so incredibly talented and creative. The shots of Mike Mills as the meteorologist in the studio giving the forecast and also in the helicopter are my favorite parts of this video. Miss hearing new music from these guys.

      In the Athens Demo of Bad Day off of Life's Rich Pageant Deluxe Edition one of the underdeveloped lyrics was "watch your heel crush crush that means war" so I'd say it definitely contributed to It's The End of The World as We Know it

    REM are such unique and talented musicians because over the years they 've gone so many musical directions and never failed! The moment we thought that they followed a recipee, they amazed us with new ideas. And they 've done it so many times. So glad to have grown up in that era.

    Bad Day
    R.E.M.
    A public service Announcement followed me home the other day
    I paid it never mind
    Go away
    Shit so thick you could stir it with a stick- free Teflon whitewashed presidency
    We're sick of being jerked around
    Wear that on your sleeve
    Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord
    Count your blessings
    We're sick of being jerked around
    We all fall down
    Have you ever seen the televised St. Vitus Subcommittee Prize
    Investigation dance? Those-ants-in-pants glances
    Well, look behind the eyes
    It's a hallowed, hollow anesthetized
    "Save my own ass, screw these guys"
    Smoke and mirror lock down
    Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord
    Count your blessings
    The papers wouldn't lie!
    I sigh

    Please
    We're dug in the deep, the price is steep
    The auctioneer is such a creep
    The lights went out, the oil ran dry
    We blamed it on the other guy
    Sure, all men are created equal
    Here's the church, here's the steeple
    "Please stay tuned - we cut to sequel"
    Ashes to ashes, we all fall down
    Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord
    Count your blessings
    Ignore the lower fears
    Oh, this means war
    It's been a bad day
    Please don't take a picture
    It's been a bad day
    Please
    It's been a bad day

      @@MrRobinJerome Check out their earlier albums, there's much more of a punk influence there. Also 1994's "Monster", 2008's "Accelerate". A personal favorite of mine which really rocks is "Begin the Begin". Also dig their dark, kind of grungey rock songs such as "Oddfellows Local 151", "I Remember California".
      R.E.M. is such an eclectic band, the range of diversity in their songs almost equals the Beatles' output. There's melancholy ballads, folksy songs with acoustic guitar and mandolin, sunshiny pop songs, dark moody grunge, energetic rockers and experimental electronics. I love R.E.M., and I'm sure their catalog has something to offer for everyone (even hip-hop - "Radio Song", "The Outsiders".)

      I would have to agree, expecially the "producrion value" of this video - they nailed the corporate Newzcasts. The broadcaster's fake, auto-pilot acting and the mindless delivery is spot on. The nonsense news bites scrolling across the bottom are hilarious. I love the incredibly perfect segways between pieces, and I lol everytime at the absurdity of the typhoon-in-the-house couple, and hurricane boy - both are perfect mockery of the typical over-the-top, "shocking" hype stories.

      R.E.M. had so many unique qualities and each guy in the band brought something special to the table. Mike Mills is a phenomenal bassist (and keyboardist) and one of the best complementary vocalists in rock history; Peter Buck had that distinctive jangly thing and hardly ever played traditional solos; Bill Berry's drumming was never boring and he had a strong influence on the songwriting; and Michael Stipe evolved from this shy, waiflike former art student to become one of the greatest rock-and-roll vocalists of all time in a new-wavy college band with an intriguing Southern heritage. Quite a story, wouldn't you say?

    Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord,

    We blamed it on the other guy
    Sure, all men are created equal.
    Heres the church, heres the steeple
    Please stay tuned--we cut to sequel
    ashes, ashes, we all fall down.

    Ugh, this means war.

    I love how the video and stories inside it are multilayered and every layer is so brilliantly made and how it intertwines with the song lyrics. From the newsreel on the bottom that I get chuckles from when I focus on it, to the obvious things like a literal office flood. This all is just an aspect of what I love about the video and the song. I remember how I was excited to see it on TV back when I watched TV stations like Vh1.
