R.E.M., Patti Smith perform "I Wanna Be Your Dog" at the 2007 Induction Ceremony

[@carlpop2324]

I didn't even have to hear a single note to give it a thumb up. Patti and REM playing Iggy? Is this a dream? Don't wake me!

[@Katy-sh3ru]

Michael's loving it 😊 performing with your idol must never get old

[@shanebell1006]

Iggi pop blessed be his soul. His an Angel You guys, R.E.M and Patti Smith Thank you for the perfect accuracy of words and sound. One word, Soul

[@duckbrew]

Meh..Stipe's pretty snoozy on this one. Too cool to move apparently. yawn

[@carlosneto3115]

Thank you for sharing this historic performance of these two great music icons. God bless you.

[@robjones2408]

REM/Patti plays "I Wanna Be Your Dog" in a room filled with corpses. This bunch would think Heart is too edgy. Nice touch having Lenny Kaye playing guitar on this classic, as he was one of the earliest public supporters of The Stooges.

[@blueviolets52]

I've never understood how the audience can basically sit through these awesome shows, it kinda breaks my heart.

[@EphemeralProductions]

Patti is awesome! Love her! Michael too!

[@badfairy9554]

Well done. Best wishes to people of Earth.

[@SethTheDrummer]

I’m dimension 616. What’re you?

[@rodneygriffin7666]

Great tribute!

[@HughBarton-yc9uu]

Insanely visceral!!!!! Like sex in a bottle. How astonishing! Patti: the best vocalist. Ever. A great poet for our time Thank you, Ms Smith. Michael: yep. REM: churning, as always.... WoweeZowee...thanks, all'yall!

[@ericforsman794]

they're rocking this

[@EphemeralProductions]

wow! they really ripped it up like Iggy at the end, throwing out that speaker at the audience! love it :)

[@TheChrishowen]

I'm happy it hit some people in the shins :)

[@brbadge]

He was legit pissed off though.

[@auntester7760]

Can’t go wrong with REM and Patti Smith!

[@anacristinasilva3254]

BRASIL I LOVE R.E M THE BEST

[@rossellacasati4383]

Che coppia meravigliosa ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@donniemoder1466]

Interesting. I got The Stooges album in the early 80s and this was the best tune on it. I bought it because it had a similar album cover to The Doors. Except I hated the jingle bells throughout the track. Glad they omitted them here.

[@johnjones1534]

To get real, REM might well be the greatest Rock band of all time. They just get it and do it.

[@yavivanov6650]

Hahaha

[@HughBarton-yc9uu]

Yep...

[@riproaring3140]

Don't forget The Stooges!

[@raymondwalsh7520]

Respectiful version

[@honeypotband]

Hey that's cool. 🙌🎶🔥

[@Goatchild90]

This was done because they had yet at this time inducted The Stooges

[@benmeltzer]

These guys leaned on Patti Smith for artistic credibility their entire career. Would they have been wildly successful without her? Absolutely. But would they have been viewed as artists in the same way? Not a chance. And yet relative to her, they are the ones who earned all the money.

[@kellylappin5944]

Michael Stipe claimed that he became a singer because of Patti Smith. Seeing them perform together is so beautiful!

[@gelmann2]

IGGY POP APPROVED

0:58 she asked if it smells out of her mouth?)

[@alvit3666]

Yay

[@skord176]

Who's the guitarist with an SG?

[@Diamonddog59]

Lenny Kaye, he has been with Patti since day one, loveliest man in rock.

[@imagine9265]

Underground music for sure ! Give me a fix !!!

[@raymondwalsh7520]

Who's the silly lad throwing the speaker off the stage ?

[@NOWtheband]

Peter Buck.

[@TheMusicalElitist]

Peter Buck, the guitarist of REM - how do you not know that?

[@forgottencas2272]

Peter Buck is a nutcase. That move at the end could've seriously hurt someone. I hope he's calmed down in his senior years.

[@TheMusicalElitist]

Lol nope!

[@SeanMclellan-lb8lb]

To clean the band Not much edge

[@eloymn5739]

Patti kinda screws the cover up a bit for me

[@richardtaylor8595]

Good job but Joan Jett gave this song what it means .

[@rocketquween]

[@hallnasmaleri1285]

[@Chronic_Town]

Hörru Roger, du kan vara lame!

[@TheMusicalElitist]
