FIRST TIME HEARING R.E.M LOSING MY RELIGION

[@rakitakhan]

“Losing my religion” is actually an old southern expression for being at the end of one’s rope, and the moment when politeness gives way to anger.

[@jeffbeck3770]

came here to say that. You beat me to it by a mile.

[@3DJapan]

Mom: "if you kids don't settle down I'm about to lose my religion!"

[@sinenominecc]

@@jeffbeck3770 Me too. You've said enough. 😉

[@laughteryogiflorida]

Thank you. Now it makes sense.

[@turdferguson400]

Caryn Kesh register Definitely. I didn’t know that. 👍

[@snipchick]

Michael Stipe said this about the song "When you have a crush on somebody, and you think that they understand that but you’re not sure, and you’re dropping all kinds of hints, and you think that they’re responding to these hints but you’re not sure; that’s what this song is about: thinking that you’ve gone too far, you’ve dropped a hint that is just the size of Idaho, and they responded in a way that maybe confused you, or they haven’t responded at all or they responded in a way that seemed like ‘well, maybe I’m gonna- maybe I’m- maybe something’s gonna happen here!’ and I think I’ve probably said this seven thousand times, but the phrase ‘losing my religion’ is a southern phrase which means that something has pushed you so far that you would lose your faith over it. Something has pushed you to the Nth degree, and that’s what this is about. Now, some people still think that it’s a song about religion; it’s not. It’s just a song about having a crush.”

[@jamesallen5591]

Yeah, been there. We all have.

[@ninline2000]

Yes, we used to say when someone was annoying us "They're going to make me lose my sanctification."

[@RayRay-zt7bj]

Good explanation sbipchick! It sounds like the story of my life. I always kind of figured this song had to be about something other than religion.

[@Ciclopea2]

I've seen him explain the song a couple of times, definitely a beautiful way of describing something that can mess you up, crushing too hard on someone lol.

[@ckobo84]

"Unrequited love" ... Is there any other kind? 😢

[@veronicajean3612]

Singer said is not about religion. In southern states losing my religion means losing temper or civility. He said it was about someone who pines for someone, unrequited love

[@ladyshar42]

basically it means "losing your shit"

[@VelkanAngels]

When I heard it as a teen (non-English), I thought it meant despair. Like, he was so desperate and lost for hope, that he was losing his religion. To be fair, lyrics have always been the last thing I've noticed about a song. Usually have to hear it 7+ times, before I begin to pay attention to the lyrics, lol. With a few exceptions.

[@whendays659]

True, but the religious iconography in the video suggests a double entendre. Being gay back then and singing about a crush would certainly have made one circumspect.

[@lesaahrenstein6360]

This is one of my favourite bands. So many songs to choose from. Its The End Of the World As We Know It, Shiny Happy People and the ultimate favourite Everybody Hurts. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and I always listen to that song when depression hits me hard to keep me going. Its saved me many times. I even have a couple of lines of it tattood on my arm as a constant reminder that I'm not not not alone. A genius band. 💜

[@mrouth5691]

The imagery of the video is amazing. Knowing that his love is not returned. Going close to her is like Icarus and Daedalus flying too close to the sun. It burns the wax on his wings and he tumbles to the earth. To Reality. While everyone is laughing and whispering behind his back. One of the best videos. The song itself is so unique, brilliant lyrics and the soothing riff and the melody is superb! The band is from Athens, Ga. I was lucky to see Hootie perform this with Peter Buck playing the mandolin (he’s the guy in the video paying the mandolin)

[@stephenbarker1734]

The songs about frustration and unrequainted love for another person and knowing that nothing is going to come from the other person, the love will never be for filled.

Some others to try are Radio Free Europe, It's The End of the World, Begin the Begin, Cuyahoga, Orange Crush, Fall on Me ... I might be getting too obscure, but these were big ones for me. Haha Another band in this genre ... The B-52's. Both bands are from Athens, GA.

I’ve always thought of REM as an “Art Band”, musically and lyrically. I saw a few suggestions given to you and I concur. A good band to sink your musical teeth into

[@SF_Bud]

Love this song! I'm a music nut, and an amateur musician. R.E.M is my third favorite band behind Radiohead and Yes. They have many awesome songs and I would go back to the beginning and hit 'Radio Free Europe' next. One of the things I love about them is their albums are all solid - every song is really good. Their early work, the lyrics are almost unintelligible half the time and that was part of the 'mystery' and aura of the band. Plus they follow in the style of making the lyrics vague enough that they are open to the interpretation of the listener, sometimes to the point of it being hard to pin down the actual topic of the song. In that way, rock music is sort of the opposite of rap music, which is all about lyrics and beat. In rock music, the music usually comes first and often the sound of the vocal is as important, if not more so, as the lyrical content. Thanks so much! Be well, stay safe. Peace from SF P.S., try using 'instruments' instead of 'instrumentals'. Or just say 'the music' as opposed to the vocals. You usually use "instrumental" to describe a song with no vocals, just instruments. Also, the main instrument in this song is a mandolin. You can see the guitarist, Peter Buck, playing it early in the video, sitting down. It looks kind of like a fancy small guitar with eight strings, but it's just 4 notes with a pair of strings per note. It's pitched much higher than a guitar and that's where that nice jangly ringing sound is from.

[@MariaCarabin]

"Losing my religion" is apparently a southern term, which means "Losing one's temper" and has nothing to do with religion. I also didn't know that until last week!

[@TexasMagnolia]

[@memcmac]

“Fall on me” absolute favorite

[@MapManLK]

Another great reaction to a great R.E.M. song. That key string instrument in the song is a mandolin.

[@hungfao]

REM have a rabbit hole of sorts. You should find a number of worthwhile tracks with them. This one has always been a hypnotic favorite. It's a song about someone who has a thing for another person but it apparently is more of a fantasy - unrequited or a one way relationship. 'Losing my religion' is a sort of Southern phrase for basically losing control of oneself.

When this song came out in 1991, almost every song on the radio was only "boom, boom, boom" and then all of a sudden there was this song with a melody in it, even three melodies, if you listen closely. It restored my faith in humanity, music wise, if you know what I mean. And the lyrics, about unrequited love, are sung with so much feeling, great! It is still one of my all time favourite songs.

[@fidel2xl]

"Losing my religion" is a Southern saying (slang) for 'I'm losing my mind'. It means 'feeling frustrated', or ' being agitated'. I'm sure that others on here might be able to explain it better, since I'm not from the South.

[@infopackrat]

But it sure works for losing ones religion.

I always love that you venture into all kinds of music. This band was definitely a favorite at the time. I know others have explained what the song was about, but the video itself was very hard to interpret, but I actually love your interpretation and I thought that many times. One more thing is that I know you loved the instrumental, which contributed so highly to the feel of this song. But there was no guitar, it was based completely around the playing of the mandolin! And another quick fact, this video won 6 major awards at the MTV music awards in 1991! Anyway if you like Michael Stype’s voice, you should definitely react to “everybody hurts“ where the lyrics and especially his voiceAre so highlighted and beautiful and emotional. I love your work.

I feel 1991 was the definitive year in popular music. You had hip-hop ascending and rock music reaching its peak with bands like R.E.M., Nirvana and the Pixies. Everything in this song - from Stipe’s vocals to Buck’s mandolin - captures the feeling of that entire year.
