- An oldie but a goodie. Michael wasn't so into lip syncing at the time so the vocal is 100% live. Enjoy. REM's music video for So. Central Rain (I'm Sorry) // circa 1983. Video copyright of IRS Records.
I saw R.E.M. play in clubs in early 1980. I saw them play in football stadiums as well later in their career. Judging from the precipitous fall from grace they've taken since Bill Berry "retired," I wouldn't be surprised to see them in clubs again. Still my favorite band of all-time, though. So. Central Rain is an amazing song.
Beautiful song! one of their best
best song ever by REM best album Reckoning
I remember hearing this on 96 Rock (Atlanta) back in the day. I think they were the first big station to play the song.
Thank you so much for uploading this! I totally adore this era of REM. So many good memories.
"So. Central Rain (I'm Sorry)" was the first single taken from R.E.M.'s second studio album Reckoning. Released in June 1984, it became the second R.E.M. single to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #85.
As mentioned in the liner notes of the 1988 I.R.S. Records greatest hits album Eponymous, the song was performed on Late Night with David Letterman in 1983 before it even had a title.
Michael Stipe chose to sing his vocals for the video live.
It's a damn shame that they lost their magic after "Document." This music was priceless and timeless.
Oh my...he still had hair in this video! R.E.M.'s IRS output is classic.
Good find. Great song!
This is their best!
No way, the following album 'Up' is one of their greatest, ever...IMO.
I love this song. thank you for posting this...:)
The best
"Shiny Happy People" was on Out Of Time.
It's Fables of the Reconstruction.
It's interesting that R.E.M. fans past and present can't decide if and when the band lost "it". It's sad and a little funny - but it's true, you just can't make everybody happy. Hopefully, the guys in the band at least are happy with what they're doing.
Wow, great video or should I say live performance.:)
I agree with a1950hotrodcat. Every song was great on each album until Green. After that, there were good and bad songs on each album.
Wow, he had hair:D
ShineyHappyPeople is of Out of Time, Stand is the crap song on Green. Early REM is just magic...
Nope. REM reached its peak at Fables/Pageant. If you love the later stuff more its because you werent around to fall in love with their most powerful music and see it live in the early 80s as some of us did. They still have good songs...but they went commercial and to meet the tastes of folks like you. Thats just too bad...but there are still REM bands out there today. The Weakerthans...The shins....Buttercup....Mountain Goat. You have to search.
I'm sure someone else has already said this - but this vocal isn't live.
So is athens a music city or what
ahhh...so they were popular and that is, we all know, what makes a great "alternative" band. By your definition, REM didnt rule the 80s because they sold fewer albums and didnt hug a fan at live aid. Make up your mind, man. Again, you obviously werent a grownup in the 80s.
after "Document" they lost their magic to became brilliant. and after "New adventures in hi-fi" they lost their brilliance to became... crap.
Apparently..you werent in college in the eighties. REM might have "ruled"..but U2 was nothing that special. Think: Feelies, Guadalcanal Diary, Dreams So Real, Talk Talk, Big Country, Alarm, The Jam, Lets Active, Cult, Echo and the Bunnymen, INXS, Camper van Beethoven, Connells. U2....not so much.
Don't be so shallow.
wow, a few ignorant statments there...
