What the quotes were ...all the thoughts each person shown in each car was thinking... what they were all going through silently.... showing that "Everybody hurts"...This is a rare video that makes the song even more moving
Yeah, and when the band members are on screen the quotes are the song's lyrics because that's what the band is thinking.
Those lines were the inner thoughts of the people on screen. Their individual hurts.
YES - I hope Daniel noticed - wasn't clear to me if he did - but I feel like that was the best feature of this song -- of course, haunting melody and chorus... but seeing those was... heart-wrenching... and thought-provoking...
This really hit home for a lot of people in 1993. Saved a lot of lives. Great reaction!
WOW! This comment touched me emotionally. I was not aware of this song saving lots of lives. That's big. A heart wrenching song about grief or loss, or anything else. 😢😔😳 I applause R.E.M.
Daniel's reaction was handled very sensitive, just like Daniel. A very wise young man. He's freakin smart and very funny and he can act! 😊 I'm amazed he's an actor. 👍
I truly enjoy his reactions! 👋👋👋❤️
I've have depression all my life. I have peaks and troughs and I have to ride them out because my depression is resistant to medication; it's connected to my aspergers syndrome so I have to live with it. This song has literally saved me so many times. I play it when I feel I feel down. It reminds me I'm not alone in feeling that way. I even got some of the lyrics tattood on my arm, so it's a constant reminder for me. Thank you for reacting to this. Its a very special song of hope for me.
I feel you. I've got aspergers with depression too. We are many, you are not alone. Keep strong and safe
@@systerkeno Thank you, ditto 🙂
i agree i have no aspergers but the song saves lifes
@@arnodobler1096 Absolutely
❤️✌️🌼
"Even the worst day only lasts 24 hours."
Words to (sometimes) live by.
And sometimes the last.
"losing my religion" great song fun to play and sing We Are Legion ✌️♥️
As always, Daniel, you’re wise beyond your years.
" Take comfort in your friends..."
True friends understand, so reach out when you are hurting because holding on alone when you hurt is heartbreaking.
REM, imho, is definitely worth paying attention to. They have a lyrical, playful, experimental style with poetic sensibilities and consummate musicianship. Shinny Happy People is a sardonic wonderland. Stand, and, It's the End of the World as We Know It, are essential. And, Losing My Religion, is an anthem of Enlightenment. I saw them open for the Talking Heads in '85. Good show.
Shiny Happy People might be their worst song in their entire catalogue. Even Michael Stipe hates it.
@@chac65 I always took it as walking the line between a totally sincere, upbeat, crazy-positive vibe, and an utterly scathing, sarcastic condemnation of the very same thing. The problem, I think, is that people don't generally recognize the sarcasm and take it as an upbeat anthem. For me it fits both the intention and the hypocrisy in the dogma of positive psychology and sings to a part of me seldom recognized. Art means what it means to people, sometimes -- maybe even often -- having more perspectives than the artist realized or intended. Leonard Cohen's, Hallelujah, is another such song that has taken on symbolism that he never intended. Often that's the mark of great art and artists. I'm not saying, Shinny Happy People, is a masterwork, but for me it evokes a sentiment I don't frequently find expressed, and I revel in it.
@@chac65
Yet it's still a good song.
@@Chatta-Ortega Yeah...no. Hell the band rarely if ever played it live (except on Sesame Street). The dude has heard 1 REM song. So, would the next REM song you recommend be an extremely common addition to worst songs of all time lists?
@@chac65
Get over yourself, Matthew. I know Stipe doesn't like it...but I do. Never said it was close to their best song. I've seen REM live a few times, starting with the Reckoning tour...so I'm very familiar with their catalog. There's no need for your musical snob act.
Very powerful. Michael Stipe could really unleash it when he had a mind to. Those "everything is wrong" times can really crush you. Getting off the floor when you've gone through one of those periods is hard as hell.
Do it anyway.
There's more people willing to help you up than you might suspect.
Mixed in with the lyrics of the song were the thoughts of the people in the cars. The song was directed to them, to hold on. Everybody in the cars had problems and felt they weren't being heard. I think this was a brilliant way to do the video. I love this song. Yes, it's sad, but it's also uplifting. Thanks for the great reaction and dissection of the lyrics.
I didn’t know I needed to hear this song tonight. I just wept and wept. I think I needed the release. Thanks.
Awwwww. 😊 😉 🤗 🌸 🌺 🌹 visit my channel!!!
A great choice, youngblood. This songs really resonates with me. Hated r.e.m. back in the day but they grew on me.
I struggle these days and i know im not the only one. But its still hard facing the day sometimes. Idk why i felt the need to drop that here, sorry.
Love what you do, keep them coming if you can. Dont neglect your studies. Much love bro.
Be strong John. Live Each Day to the Fullest. All the best.
Hold on
Great perspective from a younger generation. You are so correct, the song is heart wrenching but ultimately uplifting and so positive. Hold On', it gets better and it's worth fighting for is the primary message. As a 70 year old guy, It is so refreshing to me that you open your soul to the past and it's musical roots. I am a huge fan of your commentary. YES was my life in the past and to this day addicted to Prog. Dream Theater, Transatlantic, Airbag, Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson etc. Keep it up, thanks and all the best to you and your family.
Saddest song I've ever heard is "Alone Again, Naturally" by Gilbert O'Sullivan, but this song has been known to bring about the ninjas with onions, too. This is one of those songs I'll listen to when I want to bring the hurt and pain to the forefront--to really feel it. For me, if I'm in that kind of emotional pain, I have to just go through it, and the choices are going through a LOT of it in a short period of time or a little bit of it over a much longer time span, so I choose the former and this song helps with that.
Great song!!!
Yes!! Clever song. Upbeat tempo to the downest of downbeat lyrics
Hi Daniel. I agree that this is not actually a sad song, but a song that aims to give hope to those in a sad situation. Either way its a great piece of work, and one of REM's finest moments. Whilst on the subject of sad songs, maybe try Steven Wilson (ex Porcupine Tree)? His 'Stop Swimming', (dealing with a similar theme as this REM track), and 'Routine' (addressing loss), are thought provoking, sad and incredible pieces of music too..... Take care, Cheers Bob
"Radio Free Europe", "Talk About the Passion", "Catapult" .... whole damn first album "Murmur" (1983). Second album is amazing too. Tons of hits.
My absolute favorite group of the 80's and 90's! Michael Stipe's voice is like an extra instrument. I fell in love with them after seeing the video "Losing My Religion". Every song on "Automatic for the People" is actually very good, and worth listening to. Another song I love by them is "Night Swimming", not sure why, it's just great. By the way, 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." It has nothing really to do with religion. Loved your reaction to "Everybody Hurts". Perfect!
Powerful song of even at your lowest point there’s still hope❤️ there is always hope👏👍❤️
REM is a great band. Their first four albums are all tremendous. After that, they were more hit and miss for me. This song is an homage to the old Boudleaux Bryant-composed song "Love Hurts," which was originally a country song, but was turned into a rock hit by the band Nazareth. My favorite version of "Love Hurts" is sung by Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris. Cheers, Daniel.
You’re a Georgia boy, no? R.E.M. is from Athens up the road from Atlanta. During my CNN days I saw them play at a frat house. There’s a book called COOL TOWN about when Athens ruled the roost and was the center of the college rock universe. So many great songs this iconic band has in its catalogue.
Yes! Saw them in Athens back in 1981. Great band!!
I used to listen to this song when I was your age. I was picked on all the time throughout school. This song, while talking about sadness and pain, gave me hope in those times. Thank you, Daniel, for taking me back to those times when music gave me strength when I felt weak. I think this is a song of encouragement and hope. It's actually a happy song. Cathartic and empathetic.
Welcome to the REM rabbit hole. Some songs to suggest. "It's the end of the world", "Swan, Swan H", "World Leader Pretend", "You are the Everything", "Man on the Moon", "Losing My Religion", "Love is all around", "Exhuming McCarthy", "King of the Road".
'Automatic for the People' album is so good! This is my favorite on it along with 'Nightswimming'
Doobernow, :)
Mine too! Although they have so many great songs, Nightswimming just resonates with me.
@@wallyboy6666 R.E.M. was my high school soundtrack... my drama teacher was obsessed with them so their music was in every play in some way. But that album from top to bottom is my favorite!
“Nightswimming” is one of the most beautiful songs ever. 🙂
@@doobernow
:) They are so good! Was afraid I would make my kids sick of them from repeated playing of my CDs. (I'm 58 now) But luckily they are still big fans. (Although, my son said that he never, ever wants to hear another Fleetwood Mac song again! Lol!)
Thank you for the reply. Have a pleasant day. :)
@@markdrechsler5660
I agree! The lyrics & piano pull me in every time. :)
Gilbert O'Sullivan "Alone again" (Naturally)a beautiful song it is up there with the saddest songs ever. You might want to check it out, great reaction R.E.M. was a important band in my life this song always helped the tough times.
Sad lyrics but with a catchy upbeat tone. But it works.
Thank you Daniel. Yes, everybody hurts, including those who seem to show that everything is perfect. Here in Portugal we are all hurting as we are the country with more cases and deaths caused by Covid-19 in the world. Yes, the music, though sad, is encouraging. Hold on. Take care, stay safe.
Beautiful song. Yeah, sometimes we need to hear something like this. My husband was feeling a little sick two weeks ago, and we found out he has stage 4 liver cancer, and it's incurable. I try being strong for his sake, but I listened to this, and I could finally cry. I needed that. Thank you.
pat clark sending positive vibes for strength, comfort, and healing your way.
@@juliapernicka2698 thank you very much.
Nightswimming, The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight, Man On The Moon - lots of great songs by REM!
They were a quirky little independent rock band from Athens Georgia who later went on to be MTV video stars. I prefer their earlier albums, although this song and Losing My Religion are certainly well crafted songs.
Recommend It’s the End of the World as We know It.
Absolutely. For someone interested in lyrics, It’s the End of the World has plenty to spare. Enjoy.
That song was about 40 some odd years too early!
This song is like a soothing balm to me. It's always good to be reminded nobody's life is always sunshine and rainbows. It is also a reminder that we should really be kind to each other, no matter what our differences may be, for you never know, when you are someones hope at that moment to not to end it all. It could be as simple as a genuine smile, and hello. This is a song everyone should hear. What a wonderful reaction also!
Impressed by your reaction. You transmitted a lot of solace and encouraging to go on with life whatever may happen. Life goes on and there is always a way out of whatever difficult situation you are in at the moment. Thanks a lot.
R.E.M. was a tremendous Athens, Georgia band, very creative and badly underrated; Michael Stipe is a flat out genius at writing lyrics. In addition to Everybody Hurts, their best known songs are probably Losing My Religion, What's the Frequency Kenneth, Man on the Moon, and It's The End of the World. Shiny Happy People featured vocals by Kate Pierson, from the other Athens Band, the B-52's. These are all excellent introductory songs. You may get hooked on R.E.M.
Quick trivia: the strings on this album were arranged by John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin
Oh, that’s cool!
This really is a great song. Beautifully written.
R.E.M's "LOSING MY RELIGION" would be the best one that would be great lyrically to see you dissect. And I'm interested to see you compare SOUNDGARDEN's "RUSTY CAGE" with JHONNY CASH's cover of it. I heard Cash's version first and was surprised it was originally a Soundgarden song.
Great band. Lots of very good songs, and Michael Stipe was a terrific vocalist. Many chart hits but a consistently high quality level of writing. If you choose to do more I for one would be delighted. Man on the moon, losing my religion, daysleeper, nightswimming, accelerate........
Is. He is a great vocalist. He still sings, sculpts does many things for climate change. I saw him not too long ago. He is special. Best friends with Patti Smith and they collaborate.... still... now. Love her so much!
My beautiful friend Meredith chose this for her funeral when we found out that her cancer was terminal. I sat with her while she w as in a coma at home the night before and held her hand and told her how much I loved her and that I’d be back the next day. My husband walked in from work, I was waiting for him so we could go to her, and he had already had the call that she had died. I knew before he told me, just by his face. We got into the car, her family wanted us, and this is the song that was on the radio. I know it was for me, to tell me that she was ok and around me. She died at 34 in 1997, leaving 2 beautiful girls. I still miss her every day of my life, and she sends this song to me at various times. Darling girl. I love you.
REM was a special band to so many... when they broke up, Michael Stipe continued to be involved in art and in working for climate change. I adore him. Saw him recently (again) and he is a sweet caring compassionate artist/musician. I was sad when the band broke up but glad Michael continues to express himself in many ways.
Monster group in the 90's. Drummer retired and they continued with no drummer. Biggest hit was Losing my religion . Cheers
Earlier the better for REM in my opinion. “Life’s Rich Pageant” LP was my life for an entire year. Man in the Moon is killer too.
We're all a lot more alike than we think. I had forgotten how honest this song is. Thanks for the reaction.
Probably the only time I would recommend watching the music video. It's probably the best music video since it reflects the emotion of the song. The quotes are the occupants thoughts, and they are mostly sad thoughts. "She's gone....goodbye".
I think this song, and music in general, has saved countless lives.
Anyone know if Michael Stipe was ever a dancer, professionally? He moves like a dancer, even just walking. His dance moves in "losing my religion" impressed me.
More REM. Try It's the End of the World as We Know It (and I feel fine).
*THIS* ⬆️⬆️⬆️
Amen to that one!
One of my go-to songs for so many years. Thank you for this Daniel. ✌❤🌻😷🎶
Daniel, I have been watching your reaction videos a lot. I think you are a wonderful young man. You are kind and very insightful. I love to listen to your comments about these wonderful songs!
This song needs the video. It's well thought out to fit.
It wasn't just people stuck in traffic, it was about people stuck in their lives . . . sometimes not knowing how to go forward.
Great, great, Georgia based band.. One of America's best overall.
String arrangement on this tune are by John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin fame.
REM are keepers.
They bowed out gracefully. In a similar way to the way RUSH did.
I feel that they never made a bad or weak album.
EXCELLENCE!
Excellent reaction....such a powerful, meaningful song...recognizing the pain while offering hope...
Great video. Gonna do whole Bowie album reactions? Wow! Super looking forward to that!
They sowed their tears and then reaped their joy in Heaven.
This is one of my favourite videos of all time - a very effective and moving use of the video to extend the meaning of the song.
Thanks for the review. REM is a great band to get into. You are going to have a hard time with the lyrics from the early albums, Michael Stipe doesn't even know what he was singing when they were recorded, which was part of the fun trying to understand what the songs were about. I can kick myself for never seeing them live! Them and the Smiths.
You’re not alone. The video and the song even if got a good message gets me crying every time.
REM's Reckoning is one of my favorite albums. REM is one of those bands I can point to as the soundtrack of my youth. They were incredible live as well.
I keep watching the sad songs tonight... not sure why but I am enjoying them, thank you for your time and videos!
About time! Haven’t listened to your reaction yet... I will now...
thanks, Daniel - hope you were reading the captions of the people... beautiful song, but seeing the "thoughts" of different people in cars - in traffic - makes it even more amazing...
This is the best song that R.E.M. ever did imo. And I agree with you that the message is one of hope and of lifting people up! Well done, Daniel!
am back was unwell,,still not great but this helps ty kid
I had not heard this classic tune in a long time and as always great job Daniel. I could see this song helping someone during the grieving process so can be added to the playlist found on the Million Miles first reaction.
Wonderful song wonderful video hope you love love you
REM are a band worth exploring, one of my very favourite American bands, very lyrical and melodic!!😁😁🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
August 18, 1983. One of the memorable nights of my life, THE POLICE at Shea Stadium. 60,000 screaming fans, the stands shook. There were two opening acts, the second billing being Joan Jett, already an established star. The opening act, in a still half-empty stadium, without an album yet released, was an act nobody had heard of yet, R.E.M.. I was glad I got there early, to say the least.
Of course you would be early. An opportunity to see live music should NOT be waisted. Smart man! Nice tripple bill to be proud of experiencing. Bet a bunch of folks shortly thereafter wish they got their early too.
@@daveking9393 Thanks Dave, it was truly a night to remember!
@@daveking9393 Some of the most memorable concert moments I've had were the opening acts I never would have paid to see on their own, at the time. J. Geils Band, The Alan Parsons Project, Squeeze, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, The Go-Go's, just off the top of my head. Oh, and of course, R.E.M. ☺
@@georgewodicka4839 All headliners by the time I was old enough to go concerts... My first was Rush Permanent Waves tour... May 1980 I think...
filmed down the road in san antonio and knowing the traffic jam these guys were made a whole new meaning about the song lol anyone stuck on I35 has felt this way lol
Matt Cardle has a song called For Every Heartbreak. The chorus lyrics are "I was coming undone, but now I'm coming up swinging, it seemed like the end, but it is only the beginning, where there is no hurt, there is no healing. for every heartbreak there is a reason. Both my brother and sister died in 2012, just about when it came out and that lyric really helped me cope.
As always, you "get" it. This song is one of my favorites. Always touches deep!
I think this is a beautiful song that many people can relate to and will probably always be an iconic song. Lovely lyrics and arrangement. Thank you for your reaction
Check out Losing My Religion and Man on the Moon On The Moon (about comedian Andy Kaufman)
I agree with a couple other comments about Alone Again Naturally by Gilbert Osullivan not live version and also The Pass by Rush
Sometimes the local metal/hard rock station plays REM's "The One I Love." The local rock station will play "It's the End of the World" and "Losing My Religion."
Most of their stuff is too rock and energy draining for me. Someday, maybe he will get back to metal.
Apparently the people in the video decided to get up and leave their misery behind them. However in reality, they likely would have cursed the situation in which they found themselves symbolized by being stuck in traffic and go to see what is causing their problem only to find a gruesome vehicle pile up with severed body parts and burned bodies where they would have been in another minute. After all, they were only inconvenienced in traffic. They regain perspective.
I wonder if REM know how many people they've touched with this video? I cry every time I see or hear it. It's amazing.
You are beautiful. Did you know that?
"Strange Currencies," "Radio Free Europe," "Fall on Me," "What's the Frequency Kenneth," "Leaving New York," "Drive," "Try Not to Breathe," "Electrolite," "Bang and Blame," are some of my favourites. Just a few! Lol
I recommend "Losing My Religion". One of my favorites.
HOLD ON!
This song and “Bridge Over Troubled Water” are the most comforting songs I know or have heard.
Great song. Very healing I think.
I live alone and have really bad depression. I listen to this song so I can have a good cleansing cry. It helps a lot.
It's one of those songs that will be remembered for a long time, it is a great song that so many people took to their hearts.
R.E.M. has a multitude of fantastic songs to check out.. "Driver 8", "South Central Rain", "Talk About the Passion", "Radio Free Europe", "I Believe" and "Gardening At Night", while may not be their big hits, but are very strong and powerful tunes..
This song helped me through post partum depression. ❤️
February 23, 2017 this song literally saved my life. After taking an enormous amount of pills and feeling a thick fog settle into my brain this song magically came on the radio that I happened to be listening to. This song gave me the will to actually call the suicide hotline and soon after help arrived. Still here today and I consider this not a sad song, but a song of hope.
R.E.M's "Shiny Happy People" might be the opposite of this song you know happy😊but this one is quite moving.
Love your reactions. this is a great, great band. (in my opinion) The song IS SIMPLE - but often the simplest things are the most beautiful - like a sunset, a grass or a singing bird. I once read that "...REM songs are (often) sad, but there is ALWAYS a light at the end, hope" I hope you do more REM. Greetings from Denmark.
I think it's a very sad song in that it forces you to draw out your own sadness and look at it, but you can come thru that sadness and feel a little better on the other side, which make the song uplifting
What you were seeing between the lyrics at the bottom, were the thoughts of the different people in the cars. REM are such a great band, although, from here on in, you'll find their lyrics a lot more challenging. 'Losing My Religion' is a great song, it's not about religion though, anyway, you'll figure it out. Thanks for another great reaction.
Try “Orange Crush” by REM
That’s what they call this song saved a lot of people
The end of the cover version performed live by Annie Lennox and Alicia Keyes, is just a killer finish. "Everybody Hurts". Yes. But there are degrees.
A great song, to completely appreciate this song you need to watch the video, the songs helped many people through bad times, and dark nights of the soul, the band received numerous letters from people who had been considering suicide but decided not to after they had listened to the song.
Another couple of sad songs: Toni Child’s Ive got to go now and Suzanne Vega Luka
Nice reaction brother! Michael Stipe said that Finding out people did not commit suicide because of this song was better than a Grammy or better than any award he ever received!
I use to like REM until Michael Stipe called The Beatles "elevator music". Ringo Starr's reply? "If it wasn't for The Beatles, REM would be taking the stairs."
So true. I remember that. Kicked them down a few notches for me for sure. It was just about the time I was about to spend limited disposable income to explore. Recall determining not to invest funds or time after that... And I'm not a huge huge Beatles fan. Tons of respect, but I grew up with it and radio played them so much, by my teens, I had already gone deep with them and looked toward different groups. Found The Who and went nuts, then discovered Rush and Jethro Tull, Floyd, Boston... Beatles got left behind. BUT they shouldn't be dissed. REM has their place, and I will enjoy learning more. Only know the hits.
Another quote I recall was Peter Buck deeming Sgt Pepper's "virtually unlistenable". But I take such statements with a grain of salt. If I, relatively conservative, refused to listen to any band that insulted me or my ideas, I wouldn't have much of a playlist.
What's the frequency Kenneth, Losing my Religion 👍🏼👍🏼
Love hearing someone talking about the importance of emotional validation ✌️
The first song I ever heard from R.E.M. is 'Superman'. It's a bit of a banger and I highly recommend it. They really are fabulous.
My favorite R.E.M. song. I bet it has saved more than one person.
It's a very powerful message.
REM have a lot of great tunes..........U B do'n great my friend!!!!!
