Why after their 2005 tour did they cut loose Ken Stringfellow (or was he involved in the Accelerate album)?

If they had recorded the *Up* album in this manner (stylistically), it would have been more successful. (Also, if Berry was involved in the demos, which by all accounts he was, why didn't they give him songwriting credit?)

Syd Barrett ❤

The musical equivalent of hearing fingernails on a blackboard.

Great song, but Buck needs to play it through a Fender Twin, and not the Vox.

such a great performance

❤❤

Reveal is simply a masterpiece

REAL AND TRUE TO THEMSELVES AFTER ALL I WROTE THE SONG ❤😂😂🎉😢😮😅😊❤😊

Twat comments. Just play your music, baldy.

Whoa!!! Sound ISSUES

Still some of the only footage of them playing this fan-favorite

Pros

Iggy and the Stooges : intro

Michael, Kate, and Mike Mills are an absolutely perfect blend on this song and album. I will never relent in my unabashed love for this song no matter how much abuse it has taken over the years. Thank god in this insane and mostly awful world we have artists like REM and the B-52s.

How can this be note perfect?

Belong ❤

back when they actually allowed live performances....

That was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD WOW

Kate did a nice job here, voice and dancing. But in the official video she was absolutely amazing. That’s a professional!

and this was the rehearsal, so the actual presentation was great!

Go libs

Painful.

Wow...had no idea he did this rendition

Just ge8.

I have so many faves but this might have to take the top. And for you guitar players, play and sing!

Bill Berry what a chill drumer.. Superb drumming. Great performance❤

Kate really makes this song, as well as Iggy Pop's "Candy".

"This is my mistake, let me make it good", uhf

Humming All the way to Reno You've dusted the non believers And challenge the laws of chance Now, sweet You were so sugar sweet You may as well have 'kick me' Fastened on your sleeve You know what you are You're gonna be a star. You know what you are You're gonna be a star Wing Is written on your feet Your achilles heel Is a tendenc To dream But you've know that from the beginning You didn't have to go so far You didn't have to go. You know what you are You're gonna be a star. You know what you are You're gonna be a star You know who you are You know who you are You know who you are Humming All the way to Reno You've written your own directions And whistled the rules of change. You know what you are You're gonna be a star (star) You know what you are, You're gonna be a star (star) You know what you are, You're gonna be a star (star) You know what you are, You're gonna be a star (star) Humming All the way to Reno All the way to Reno All the way to Reno You're gonna be a star, you are You're gonna be a star You're gonna be a star, you are You're gonna be a star

0:09 song starts 🎶 Charades, pop skill Water hyacinth, named by a poet Imitation of life Like a koi in a frozen pond Like a goldfish in a bowl I don't want to hear you cry That's sugarcane that tasted good That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood C'mon, c'mon no one can see you try You want the greatest thing The greatest thing since bread came sliced You've got it all, you've got it sized Like a Friday fashion show teenager Freezing in the corner Trying to look like you don't try That's sugarcane that tasted good That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood C'mon, c'mon no one can see you try No one can see you cry That sugar cane that tasted good That freezing rain, that's what you could C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry This sugarcane This lemonade This hurricane, I'm not afraid C'mon, c'mon no one can see me cry This lightning storm This tidal wave This avalanche, I'm not afraid C'mon, c'mon no one can see me cry That sugar cane that tasted good That's who you are, that's what you could C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry That sugar cane that tasted good That's who you are, that's what you could C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry

Let's put our heads together and start a new country up Our father's father's father tried, erased the parts he didn't like Let's try to fill it in, bank the quarry river, swim We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red This is where we walked This is where we swam Take a picture here Take a souvenir This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red And we gathered up our friends, bank the quarry river, swim We knee-skinned it you and me, underneath the river bed This is where we walked This is where we swam Take a picture here Take a souvenir Cuyahoga Cuyahoga, gone Let's put our heads together and start a new country up Up underneath the river bed we'll burn the river down This is where they walked, swam Hunted, danced and sang Take a picture here Take a souvenir Cuyahoga Cuyahoga, gone Rewrite the book and rule the pages Saving face, secured in faith Bury, burn the waste behind you This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it We are not your allies, we cannot defend This is where they walked This is where they swam Take a picture here Take a souvenir Cuyahoga Cuyahoga, gone Cuyahoga Cuyahoga, gone

They don't show the organ player behind Mike Mills an intrical part of this song.

What a bunch of dorks

La clara mustra de que el NEW ADVENTURES IN HI FI no se andaba con rodeos. Sus canciones son contundentes y geniales. Una obra maestra

REM lyrics are more complex than I thought. Of course I am Gen X and this is my signature band of the 80s. Had all their stuff, etc. But it is crazy that now I can slow down and actually listen. I was actually right listening to them.

Jimmy Webb

michael stipe does a great job, with this glen campbell classic.

Thank you for this video!

Johnny is spot on and out arpeggioing Buck

You gotta love the Jerries

Ero Verona con tutta la mia famiglia ❤❤❤che spettacolo dal vivo sono pazzeschi

Peter Buck always had the coolest moves and real attitude needed to be a band’s lead guitarist.

Kate !!!!❤❤❤❤❤b-52

Actually had the pleasure of meeting and hanging w/Bill Berry and Mike Mills a couple of times in the early 90s. At some point, I mentioned to BB that “Shaking Through” was my favorite song of theirs. He seemed genuinely(and pleasantly) surprised saying “Really?? I don’t hear that choice very often!”. I still think it’s an underrated sleeper.

This is my song, as a disability person…😢

❤

I've been watching videos from this session for 15 years.. Thank you for uploading!

Fascinantemente espectacular pedazo de canción mas excelentemente ejecutada. 😍
