@@gordonlove5121 I do miss the days of radio stations and record companies that would sign, invest in, record and promote new talent. That is how my Program Director, at the time, got a copy of Stand from a still uknown, underground garage band called REM. If it wasn't for record company promotion and investment, and the wealth that eventually flowed REM's way, the system would not have worked. Unfortunately, when people really stopped paying for new music, the system collapsed.
@BillBird211111 ай бұрын
@@gordonlove5121 I also recall, from my CHR Radio format days, that this song was barely two minutes in length when it first hit. It was a really iconic tune that didn't last nearly long enough, which is what I thought at the time during my never-ending ovenight shifts as a DJ. Still, once it got into the A or HOT rotation, it played at least once every 1.5 to two hours.

This song went to number 6 on the Billboard 100! And yet based on the number of views, has not aged as one of REM's classics in most people's views. For me, Green was the first REM album I had (on cassette), so this, Orange Crush, and Pop Song 89 will always be among my favorite singles by them.

There was a time, while growing up in the mid eighties in London that anything from the States ( bar the Cramps) was just NOT hip, we had New Romantics, Futurists, Goth etc....such was the obsession with image; a band had to 'look' right, have the right haircut...these guys were therefore overlooked by many as they displayed none of those facets, were almost 'non image conscious'...But as they proved, REM compiled an opus of music which far outlasted any of their UK contemporary 'vanity projects' in the UK (with possible exceptions of the Smiths)..This song is in a remarkable period which started with 'The One I love'....truly amazing.
@Eric_In_SFАй бұрын
get real. Takling Heads, The Pixies, Hüsker Dü, Sonic Youth, Replacements, Jesus and Mary Chain, Minuteman, Butthole Surfers all had pretty solid followings in the UK and all considered pretty hip. Not to mention mainstream acts like Madonna or Prince and Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner all had massive chart topping success year after year in the UK. Not as hip but such is pop music.

Anyone else finding themselves going through some old familiar songs then you start realizing how fast time has gone by. I have been thinking, feeling and expressing my passion for music and life on and off for the last few days ( trying not to share one negative thought or put down) and I think it put a end to my midlife crisis that I was in self denial about. Hahaa. I have always been a deep thinker and poetic music like REM helps put my thoughts into focus while blending in my emotions into the mix of it all. Nothing can come close to the unique quality that is REM. ✌️I want to see more of the youth getting into new school folk music all over again 💙

3:02 Michael with hair. Why does it seem so alien to me? Great tune, inspiring.

seifukusha Right? We're so used to him being bald that watching the old music videos (pre 1994) and seeing him with hair is strange.

Thing is Im old enough to remember the early music videos on late night tv. I actually prefer pre-worldfame REM, more raw and weird.

seifukusha First off, whoa :o Second, I can definitely appreciate that since they were just 4 guys from Georgia that made some really good music (in a way, they were like a forerunner for the indie music scene of today)

I have no idea why I out of nowhere I decided to listen to this and I haven't done that in years. Stand up and be counted or kneel down and and be mounted.

It's amazing how much of a future we cannot predict. I was 10 or so when this came out. Brother played this on cassette he recorded from VOA (Voice of America). I could not ever imagine coming back to this via the internet, on KZbin on a phone in 2018.
