REM were the one group which consistently broke new ground in music and this is easily identified not only by the number of albums released but their following on a globalized scaling.

[@vlmaguire81]

Thanks, great interview , miss these guys xx

[@lorenwyman]

We need them back... :(

[@braddersthemod]

I miss REM...

[@conorfurlong]

Great interview.

[@SilentAssassin01234]

Zz versatile, what a quip. Went right over the interviewer's head.

[@DavidOakesMusic]

That's the most outright gay joke i've ever heard Stipe say.

[@johnnorth6406]

Cheers for this. Michael looks more like Bill Murray these days.

[@Pazuzu82]

Some jerk😂😂

[@electrician1602]

Well listen fellas, we're just about out of time, automatic for the people, 25th edition, next up, time to reveal some new adventures, experience life's rich pageant, document your journey around the sun and into pastures green, accelerate like a monster, never a murmur, then collapse into now before the final reckoning.

[@Boondoggle2222]

I'm curious why Stipe and Mills do all these present-day interviews and Buck never participates? I know he hates the music business, but his consistent absence perplexes me.

ZZ Bottom

[@setphaserstostun4626]

Bush for breakfast! Firth sucks. Seriously.

[@WillScarlet1991]

They all suck. Fake, unfunny twats.
