R.E.M. - Everybody Hurts-Reaction

[@JanetWellDone61]

Bless you!!! This is one of my favorite songs ever. My Dad was a die-hard country only fan. When he was dying from cancer several years ago I played this song for him. He got up & started swaying to the music and told me to play it again. A very special moment. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

[@adamdodgshon638]

Michael Stipe has a very unique voice for sure. As soon as you hear it you know it’s him. Any era of REM, loud or quiet, upbeat or slow, it’s always his voice that carries the song beautifully.

[@Oliviawestfall6613]

Singer Michael Stipe wrote this song as a deturant to suicide, and it apparently worked, because after this song was released, the suicide rate in America dropped, at least a little bit. Michael Stipe is a great person.

[@Julian-to7ro]

This is one of the most beautiful songs and it helped (and still helps) alot people through tough times. I've read that it prevented alot people from killing themselves and all that, for that alone this is a diamond of a song☝️ Also the video, how they are all alone in their cars and in the end they all go out and come together, they are not alone anymore

I FELT IT. I have heard this song so many, many times, but I never seen the video. The moment he said, "Hold on", I had chills go down my spine and looked over at you and you were scratching your head. I FELT THAT FEELING. Cool.

[@GullibleTarget]

Late reaction. That bit gets me too. The big intake of breath and the releasing of tension in his shoulders. Letting go of all the burdens that hold us down. It's like a big sigh of relief:' It's ok. Everybody hurts. You are not alone'.

[@marshaeberhart9697]

Hey Ty, I missed this video! I'm so glad you reacted to this song. Absolute truth, my cousin went through a point in his life where he gave up. He's one of the most gentle men I've ever known in my life but he'd hit his breaking point. My aunt said he heard this song and the words kept him from committing suicide. We're grateful and blessed that he heard this song and didn't give up. He's a blessing to have with us. It definitely holds a special place in our hearts.

[@shannonroche1182]

This is sad but message of hope also . You can hear how the music changes at the end to uplift ....hold on. .hold on ...love this song. I listen to it whenever I despair.

So pleased you just let it play. One of, if not The, most powerfully emotional songs ever written. Well done Michael Stipe, for your words and your vocals.

All I have to hear is the first few notes of this song and I get chills. I appreciate the advice of seeking counsel from above. And while friends, family, religion, 12 step programs, professional therapy etc. can all provide added comfort and support, nothing can replace going straight to the source.

[@jbdbsb]

This is a song not of sadness, but of salvation. Your not alone. Your not the only one. Someone is going through everything right now and your not alone.

[@c8Lorraine1]

When we are hurting and in a deep dark place, it’s the best time to reach out and do something for another person. A hug, a smile, visit a care home and talk to the elderly or simply read the newspaper to someone with failing eyesight.

[@mikebailey9566]

The key to combating depression is helping others. MRM comes close when he says stop thinking about yourself. But like I say helping others is the key. A happy life is a life of service.

[@MRM-Red]

Im binge watching your old videos. This song was huge when my Aunt passed away from brain cancer. In 93. She was only 46 and i was 20. I helped took care of her. And this song hit home to me. Ive always been the caregiver in my family ( and so was my mom) ive watched many family members lose their battle to cancer but im strong in my Faith to keep doing it. Taking care of your family is most rewarding gift ever in our lives. Hope your wife and mother had a great Mothers Day

[@chris...9497]

When I was a child, we had a chihuahua we got as a pup. After a couple years, my mom got another puppy, one a little bigger than the chihuahua. The original dog tried to make friends with the new puppy, but the puppy was too rough. And the new puppy now got all the attention; she felt invisible & abandoned. Well, the chihuahua gave up. She stopped eating, & we didn't realize it for a full week. By then, she was very weak & wouldn't come out from under the bed. My mom took her to the vet, but it was too late; she died the next day. So if you question whether dogs can be depressed, I know they can, because our family had a chihuahua so depressed she committed suicide. Dogs can feel the whole range of emotions we humans can. So treat your pets with compassion & empathy.

[@tomyoung9049]

dont think i've seen that video before. Heard the song many times. Thanks for sharing that.

[@johnr8095]

John Paul Jones from Led zeppelin did the string arrangements on this and a few of the songs on the album. and they really make the song especially at the end of the song where the melody line keeps rising.

When your pet loses his brother and sister, and he is the last one left, you will see true depression. He looked for them every day for a month, looking into each room and calling out to them. After that month he gave a terrible sigh and stopped looking. He sat facing the wall. I realized I had to overcome my own sorrow to help him. I began taking him outside with me every day. Gave both of us something else to think about. Yes, your pets can be depressed. Your pets can feel sorrow. They miss the ones they loved.

She had always planned to have this played at her funeral, and at special times in my life or when things have been bad, this will come on the radio.

This song is so deep! For me, I went through a time of addiction....and when getting clean, those first 5 days of hell going through withdrawals....this song said it ALL! THE DAY IS LONG....AND THE NIGHT IS YOURS ALONE! I had never had such long days and the darkest, loneliest, longest nights of no sleep and constant spasms...throwing up....it WAS HELL! And this song got me through a couple of those nights. Just to know someone could sing words that spoke the truth of what you were going through made me feel less alone. No matter how many friends say they will stay with you through it....they sleep and you don’t...and it’s LONELY AND DARK! But then this songs says...But HOLD ON! HOLD ON! And gave me some hope to press on through. My request for you is to listen to and watch another video that to me explains addiction perfectly as well and that is “Its only life” by The Shins. “ we all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole” “Open up the parachute...something’s got to stop the free fall!” SO GOOD! What would we do without music that is so many times there for us when nothing and no one else can be?!

[@williegilbert9852]

And I gotta apologize to you because I didn't listen to all your comments when I posted mine. This is a great example of how just hearing the song alone is great but with adding such a powerful video with additional captions...just about got choked up. As I was watching the people leave their vehicles it reminds me of how we need to avoid isolation and share our problems with others because yes sometime..everybody hurts.. sometime to the point that they want to end their life. But it doesn't have to be that way. I won't preach either but I was so impressed with you sharing how Jesus will share our burden if we just ask Him to...Hope it's obvious that I just loved your commentary. And of course not everyone wants to ask our God of Christianity for help but just start asking ONE person if you can share your hurt with them.

[@MRM-Red]

This is a beautiful song. Sure many people can reflect their lives to this, least some point. Have blessed day..God Bless

[@williegilbert9852]

Ah, sooo many bands to recommend. I never would have thought of this one by REM...great and very sad song...used in lotsa soundtracks.

"As a man thinketh, so is he." We have the ability to curse or create by the power of our tongue. My pastor used to tell me that we are a total of our talking yesterday and that if I desired a better tomorrow, to change my faith confession TODAY. He also expressed the importance of getting "a check up from the neck up" and if any "stinkin' thinkin'" was found there, to replace it with what the Word says about us. 😊

There is a live concert version of this song, I can't seem to find it though. But Michael Stype has the words on a big screen tv behind and above him and got all 60,000 people sing along with him. It's an outdoor concert somewhere in Europe, I think. And, Damn, he had alot of crying, singing fans in that audience.

[@jendailey969]

I always watch the video your talking about. It's outside in the cold you can see his breath when he is singing I think it's raining too. Stipe is bald in the video and looks different but his voice hasn't changed any and he put his ❤ and soul and tears into it and it's a longer version than this one was.

[@Morgana0x]

This song makes me cry every time I hear it. So beautiful.

[@windnchgo]

Taken from "Automatic for the People" - my favorite R.E.M. album. One of the best songs about grief I've ever heard. After knowing about grief firsthand when my best friend passed away, this song has been a blanket that swaddles and comforts me in my moments of sadness I have now and then when I am reminded of my friend. I am one of those people that wants to hear sad songs when I am sad, and this song in particular reminds me I am not alone in my sadness and grief.So, yes I agree with you, Ty. Don't fight the grief - let it flow through you. Crying is not a weakness, compassion is not a weakness, love is not a weakness. And,, I want to quickly add, every time you feel a sadness from the memory of a lost loved one, it is a reminder of your love for them, and a reminder of them living on through you.

"It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" - Alfred Lord Tennyson

[@angelgr76]

YES!! I love the saying "YOU WERE GIVEN THIS LIFE, BECAUSE YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO LIVE IT!" I agree with everything you said except not everyone can talk their way out of depression & anxiety. I remember being full of anxiety at 8 yrs old. From then on I suffered from anxiety & depression & it was bad!! At 23, it consumed me. I was dx'd with major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, & postpartum depression. They tried me on so many different meds & either nothing helped or I couldn't tolerate the side effects. I was in a tailspin, couldn't pull myself out of it, & was losing faith that my doctors could find anything to help me! I had a very busy, but great life! My husband and I had just built our house, we had 3 beautiful kids, I was in nursing school, & I had a lot of supportive friends & family......but I just couldn't dig myself out of the hole that I was in! People meant well by giving me pep talks & suggestions on how to "get over" what I was going through, but the worse I got, the more of a failure that I felt because I couldn't make myself better! Finally, my doc suggested just one more try at a new prescription. I reluctantly agreed. Within 10 days I started feeling like a new person, a happier, less anxious person! I cannot put into words how happy I was! The doctors had told me that if a med worked for me that I probably wouldn't feel any better for 6 weeks & that's what I had expected, but thankfully that's not what I got! I'm 44 now & I've been on Zoloft for 21 years & will never voluntarily go off of it! I haven't suffered any serious bouts of depression since & my anxiety is much better! My family on my maternal side is full of anxiety and depression & I unfortunately, passed it on to all 3 of my kids. When my oldest daughter was 15 she attempted suicide. It was the worst night of my life! I'm telling you this because I think, no I know that it's very important how we support people suffering from mental illness! The people who loved me most in this world meant well with what they were saying to me, but they didn't fully understand my reality & it just made me feel even worse about myself! People can't talk themselves out of a chemical imbalance. Please don't take this harshly. You have a sweet & kind heart & I can tell you are a great doctor, but this is something that I've lived so it's important to me. Thank you if you've read this far into my novel! lol

It's a song of hope that tells you to not throw in the towel, however when it's played it taps into the feeling of being small and hopeless. I have felt suicidal all day drinking inside while it rained and this song is exactly what I felt.

[@christopherbaldwin2005]

Sorry, me again. I met my best friend in 1972. We were both in the Civil Air Patrol and met at a two week encampment at Plattsburg Air Force Base, now closed. He is retired from the New York State Trooper's after 32 year's. He risked his life every day working under cover assigned with the DEA and Homeland Security. He helped clean up after 9/11. He is a hero to me. Another fact is he came to this country from Haiti. I kind of pushed him into going to see Buckethead at Sony Hall in N.Y.C with me. While there, you know the music's loud, so I kept leaning over to see if he wanted to leave. Well, a beautiful black lady was seated not far from us and on her way back to her seat, she stopped and said how wonderful it was to see the two of us as best friend's. She gave me a kiss on the cheek and I walked her to her seat only a few feet away. A night I will never forget. Best, Chris

[@michelle88960]

If you can find it watch Take It To The Limit by the Eagles with Randy Meisner singing it in 1977. Randy hated doing the song due to the extremely high note at the end. But Glenn Frey and Don Henley would bully him into singing it and Randy was so nervous. He keeps his eyes closed throughout and licking his lips, which is a sign of stress. But he kills it. But he left soon after.

[@sunnycalico6643]

The best rendition I heard of this song was from a very unusual place. Britain's Got Talent, an old pensioner (about 80), sang this song after telling the audience that his wife of X number of years had passed away and he was singing it for her. Not a trained voice but boy he did a good job had you in the palm of his hand.

For me, this is about my struggles with depression and anxiety. I really had a horrible experience with post partum depression after the birth of my son. I would lie in my bed and sob. I couldn't for the life of me understand why. I had the most beautiful baby in my arms. My husband called my ob/gyn and he prescribed a good antidepressant, which helped. But it was rough for awhile. For those who don't believe in postpartum, it is real, but there is help!

If you want an experience with this song (Everybody Hurts); you need to look up the T.A.C. Commercial that was done in Australia with this song as a cover. The Alcohol Council did a 10 year study on under the influence of substances driving and its effects. The result was a commercial they show on T.V. America banned the commercial here in the states because of the apparent violence in it. It’s all about driving under the influence of a substance (any substance) and how it effects not just you, but many. Check it out. I did substance abuse counseling for years and I would show The TAC commercial to help people understand the devastating effects and consequences of choices. Check out the TAC commercial and tell me what you think!
