    The expression Losing My Religion in the United States means "losing patience" or "losing your mind", nothing linked to religion. Furthermore, the band's song is about unrequited love and not a departure from religion.

      Mostly correct, but in the south where the saying originated, something that made you cuss made you lose your religion. So yeah, it had to do with religion. Also, it doesn't make sense if it doesn't have anything to do with religion.

    R.E.M. (Rapid Eye Movement... also called "rem") were an 'alternative' rock band formed in the early 80's in Georgia (in the USA 😁) They were signed to an indie label and released a string of fairly successful albums... They were signed to a major record deal in 1988 for a multi-million $$$ contract and delivered the album 'Green' that sold 4 million copies worldwide.
    'Losing my religion' was a massive hit single in 1991 that set the whole 90's scene for the 'alternative rock' revolution... R.E.M.'s album 'Out of time' became an international hit, selling 4 million copies in the US, 12 million worldwide... and thrust the band into the spotlight w/ newer bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Green Day, Blur, Oasis, Weezer, Rage Against the Machine, Soundgarden, etc.
    R.E.M. recorded 'Out of time' and the next album 'Automatic for the people' (1992) acoustically and both albums were huge hits... 'Automatic for the people' sold 15 million copies worldwide & delivered hits like 'Drive'... 'Man on the Moon'... 'Everybody hurts'... 🔥🔥
    Their 1994 album 'Monster' was a return to electric rock, followed by a tour and was R.E.M's biggest to date... more hits like 'Bang and blame'... "What's the frequency, Kenneth?" ... However, the band was wilting under the spotlight.
    R.E.M was originally - Michael Stipe (vocals), Peter Buck (lead guitar), Mike Mills (bass/ keyboards) and Bill Berry (drums)... As they became international superstars, Stipe was revealed to be gay under scrutiny, and he suffered a loss when Nirvana's Kurt Cobain (who was a close friend) took his life in 1994 ... Then drummer Bill Berry began suffering health problems... R.E.M. released 'New adventures in Hi-Fi' in 1996, but sales dropped to 4 million worldwide because of the decline of 90's 'alternative rock'.
    In 1997, drummer Bill Berry left the band and R.E.M. became a trio, using session drummers. Subsequent albums like 'Up' (1998) and 'Reveal' (2001) sold well, but not as much as the previous albums... After a few more albums, R.E.M. announced in 2011 that the band was ending after their 15th album 'Collapse into now'... Michael Stipe has stated that he has no plans to bring R.E.M. back.
    Other R.E.M. hits - 'Stand'... 'The one I love'... 'Orange crush'... 'The great beyond'... "It's the end of the world..."

Weaver catered my fraternity house back in the 80s.

    Oh alright! R.E.M. (pronounced as reading the letters separately and not as word) is a good band! They have lots of good songs, but "Everybody Hurts" is one that's really popular to react to, but you have to do the official music video version. Or if you want an older, more up beat song of their's "It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" is a personal favorite that's been used in lots of movies and TV. Or "The One I Love" is another favorite.

      @@BisscuteReacts actually... As usual, after I comment, I think of other stuff, but I don't want to overload you with too much because I'm sure you're already getting so much from everywhere, but just this one thing for now. So, I'm pretty sure R.E.M. (Rapid Eye Movement BTW), eventually migrated to New York, but they're originally from Athens, Georgia, which I believe is just a little college town in the American South. I just bring it up because so is another famous band the B-52s, and it's just funny that they both came out of what must've been such a small scene in an unexpected place. The B-52s also have a lot of songs, but if you're curious, "Love Shack" is a fun one that's one of their biggest hits that I think you'd dig.

    People have taken the title too literally for years, but as Michael Stipe explained, the title is a US Deep-South phrase (the band is from Athens, Georgia) meaning to lose your temper or run out of patience. Which makes sense given that he also said it’s about having a crush on somebody.😊

    Yes that is milk in that jug, this reference is likely due to the english expression 'don't cry over spilled milk' (which means don't get too worked up over small things you can't change) as that appears to be what it's symbolizing.

    "Losing my religion" is a Southern USA expression meaning "losing my calmness/cool/sh..t". The dance is likely awkward on purpose based on the motivation and meaning of the song (easily googled). Everybody Hurts is a great video as well.

    I think I recall reading once that to say you're "losing your religion" is a way of saying that you've become very angry, an expression in the southern U.S. I think this song is about him being excessively jealous in one of his relationships, nothing to actually do with religion.

    You pronounced the band name great! No worries! R...E...M.
    This is my favorite of many R.E.M. songs. A rock song that has no electric guitar, but a mandolin, an amazing bass line, and a bopping beat. Add a lyric that really can be open to fun interpretations...it's awesome!!!
    The phrase "Losing My Religion" comes from the southern United States (specifically Georgia, where R.E.M. is from). It basically means losing one's temper or feeling frustrated or desperate. The song itself is mostly about romantic feelings and needs.
    The official video won all sorts of awards and the song was everywhere in the 1990s...a huge hit.

    In the 19th century the Comte de Toqueville observed that in order to have intelligent discourse it is necessary for the parties concerned to first define their terms. You might be repulsed by, or you might be indifferent to religion, or you might be enamored by your particular brand of religion, but this is how I understand religion:
    ‘re’ - a prefix, indicating a repetition, e.g. re-member, re-turn, re-lax. To go back to.
    ‘lig’ - ligare, Latin, ‘to bind’, ‘ to tie down’. e.g. lig-a ture, lig-ament.
    ‘ion’ - a suffix, ‘an action or condition’.
    ‘re-lig-ion’ - to repeatedly go back to a state of bondage.

    It's been a minute since I heard this. "Stipe has repeatedly stated that the song's lyrics are not about religion. The phrase "losing my religion" is an expression from the southern region of the United States that means "losing one's temper or civility" or "feeling frustrated and desperate." Stipe told The New York Times the song was about romantic expression. He told Q that "Losing My Religion" is about "someone who pines for someone else. It's unrequited love, what have you." Stipe compared the song's theme to "Every Breath You Take" (1983) by The Police, saying, "It's just a classic obsession pop song. I've always felt the best kinds of songs are the ones where anybody can listen to it, put themselves in it and say, 'Yeah, that's me.'"

    Losing my religion my favorite song, R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980, perfect beautiful Bisscute enjoy your reacted 👍❤

    “Losing my religion” is an obsolete southern (U.S.) slang term meaning getting angry. If someone says “you are about to make me lose my religion” means “you’re about to make me too angry to let me not lose my temper and do something very bad”

    Bisscute in the 80's and the 90's R.E.M. were the kings of college radio. The band is from Atlanta, Georgia. When you listen again maybe it will help you understand the song better if you know that "losing my religion" is a southern American expression for being frustratingly angry at someone. Listen again with that in mind.

    Agree with George Nox, Everybody Hurts or Shiny People. I lean towards Everybody Hurts but both are great REM songs.

  • @born2lol

    I recommend also another R.E.M. song 'Shiny Happy People' with vocalist from B-52.

  • @blackswarm1013
    @blackswarm1013 Год назад +2

    R.E.M.'s songs are so great, sometimes catchy, sometimes melancholic or both. That's why they are one of my favourite bands. I'm glad that you give their music a chance. You should listen to more of their songs, they were quite rightly famous.
    I remember reading that they chose the name out of a dictionary because "they liked the dots" in it.
    Also, I always wanted to see more of that weird but fascinating dancing in the video.

  • @portland-182

    So many great REM songs to try, I envy your journey - Imitation of Life, Bad Day, The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight, It's The End of The World As We Know It, Man on the Moon, Everybody Hurts, Shiny Happy People, Stand, Night Swimming, The One I Love,

  • @arthurdent358
