R.E.M. @ 99X I'll Take The Rain

[@philyroberts72]

Probably the best song REM wrote & Michael Stipe's vocals are flawless. I miss REM as a band.🙏❤️

[@hatebreed3698]

me too. Great Band.

[@thinkinoutloud]

I have all of REM's CDs and I don't know how I missed this but I heard it for the first time a few days ago and have been listening to it over and over. I don't know what is yet, but this song really moved me. I haven't been moved this much since the first time I heard "Night Swimming".

[@joycehall4866]

I get goosebumps every time I hear this. It's beautiful!

[@leegott7737]

Remember. E. Moment.

[@tonyflores5368]

Really still love this song in 2020. Don't even know how much I miss this band. Love...

[@poplar78]

I really have no words to express all motions in my soul when I'm listening to this song.

[@abernste]

One of the most beautiful REM songs enhanced wonderfully by Mike Mill's gorgeous background vocal....

[@mimoochodom2684]

When one hears the first word sung, one automatically knows it's an REM song....and that's a gift that money can't buy.

[@sarapinsky315]

This is just beautiful-one of my favorite REM songs. Love this version!

[@Macarelo70]

Great band ,great singer .Awesome song.

[@dougthomasmusic]

[@legend__33]

goosebumps. every time.

The rain came down The rain came down The rain came down on me. The wind blew strong The summer song Fades to memory I knew you when I loved you then The summer's young and helpless. You laid me bare You marked me there The promises we made. I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain I'll take the rain. The nighttime creases Summer schemes And stretches out to stay. The sun shines down You came around You love easy days. But now the sun, The winter's come. I wanted just to say That if I hold I'd hope you'd fold Open up inside, inside of me. I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain I'll take the rain. This winter song I'll sing along I've searched its still refrain I'll walk alone I've given this, take wing Celebrate the rain. I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain I'll take the rain. 🌧❤

[@WCWfanboy]

Another timeless classic by R.E.M

[@GergelAni]

This is the best R.E.M. song !

[@leegott7737]

All songs have different stories.true

[@chauncemce8358]

Such an amazing song. Michael Stipe sings like a story teller. He has incredible voice!

[@chrisclark8999]

Stipe himself has referred to the lyrics in this song as 'watery' , but lines like "I used to think as birds take wing they sing through life, so why can't we" are just genius. Couple that with the looped interlude at the end and you've got perfection.

[@Civitix17]

someone said that losing my religion is the rem's best song...i think " i'll take the rain" is the rem's best song ever!! i love you!!!

[@Martingreeneyes]

Cute

[@joycehall4866]

It may be the most popular but I'll take the Rain is far better!

[@dgryff2724]

It’s certainly up there with their best , personally at the moment ‘Leaving New York’ is my fave 😎

[@leegott7737]

Remember every moment...all lyrics are true storytelling.

What a voice

[@Traducteur1]

This is what you get from REM: live versions just as excellent, if not better than the original recordings.

[@MartzMz]

Magistral, no se si puedo dar un mejor calificativo. R.E.M son los mejores y los amo!!

[@MartzMz]

Pure P-O-E-T-R-Y

[@crossEyedMary69]

Incredible pure beauty

[@martinahaase306]

Ein wunderbarer Song der zum Nachdenken angeregt. Das Leben besteht nicht nur aus Sonnenseite des Lebens. Wer nicht bereit ist , die die weniger erfreulichen Seiten des Lebens anzunehmen ist irgendwo fehl am Platz

[@caramason56]

[@StefanoValerilove-coffee]

Michael come back with your band mates. Alone you are not as good with REM band! Please 🙏

[@kennyforever]

la cancion en vivo es mas hermosa ¡Great song!

[@StratsRUs]

I wish they'd have recorded this album with the added depth that was so natural as a full band.This song has Michael singing with proper fullness.The original is still great but lacks the simple heft of this.

[@ItsikRafael]

i already took it
