R.E.M. - What's The Frequency, Kenneth? / Crush With Eyeliner (Road Movie '95)

[@mauriziopuddu4734]

These are the true R.E.M. with Bill Berry on drums.

[@dryter]

So great seeing Berry on the drum kit.

[@TheFbiFilesRepeat]

3:22 , "Dont fuck with me!" xD

[@davidmatheny1993]

As Eddie Vedder once joked, maybe the stage lights bounced off Mike's many rhinestone suits and caused Bill's aneurysm.

[@joycehall4866]

That's funny, but yet sad.. 3 of them ended up in the hospital.

[@smiddlecn]

I was there (2nd show of three in Atlanta). It was AMAZING.

[@acercade439]

this music is a joy, and the best musical band REM

[@ferabra8939]

No wonder the drummer got sick. I'm feeling sick just watching at those lights in the video. OMG.

[@jak2995]

Just brilliant. I really hated how they dumbed this song down in the later years. Lost the tremolo and PB introducing those 'licks' throughout the song as opposed to only following the bridge. But can't win them all! Really miss REM!

[@runreilly]

Peter Buck might be a very simple guitarist, but I've never heard him play a wrong note.

[@asticou04]

I notice you didn't mention mandolin.

[@Tripl3333]

Well they are....pros

[@kustomhooligans]

These were the first two rock songs I discovered on my own. Great memories of this album, I bought it at Kmart lol

[@kennethrussell1158]

My name is Kenneth. And when that song was released in 1994/95 my wife kept teasing me by asking me that question. She stop asking after we had 6 children. I guess the question was answered. (If you know what I mean).

[@eduardorivera508]

I LOVE Bill Berry! Though he may not be a technical drummer with super flashy chops, he managed to find the perfect beats for REM tunes and has played them flawlessly.

[@JM-5150]

+Eduardo Rivera I just don't see why people have to comment on the style of every musician out there. unless you can do better piss off. REM were not technical at all, doesn't mean they are not not talented. only reason people make comments like you did, jealousy.. that pretty much says it all. put up or shut up.

[@eduardorivera508]

+Jason Mixon What the hell? I love REM. If you weren't so clouded by negativity you would have been able to see that I am a fan and did not bash on the band at all. I merely admired Bill Berry's drumming style for being a suiting style for the band. Im not gonna bother explaining my comment because its pretty easy to see that. Shit, I've even made mix CD's for my girlfriend and now she's into them. Quit being such a diva. ;)

[@JM-5150]

+Eduardo Rivera A diva fucking hilarious. Your pretty technical, an idiot as well.

[@eduardorivera508]

+Jason Mixon Ok sure :) You know you lost this dumb KZbin comment fight with your initial reply, right? I'll let you have the last word though, that is if you want it! Go ahead Mr. Diva...

[@marioncobaretti2280]

guitar in this just duz it for me

[@bellrosedover]

Brings me back when I was a kid good memories Lol Rockie Lerata from Lesotho

[@JDfanboy1]

I literally feel the exact same way.

[@jonathans.bushnell789]

The perfect opening number ...

[@patricia959jjjlll]

amo esta canción y a R.E.M 💜 Gran banda

[@dermotgodfrey1454]

In terms of being visceral Roadmovie was def the best live release by REM,and great memories from the summer of 95 for me,Milton Keynes!!!

[@stevecrofts6404]

+Dermot Godfrey Was there too! Saturday July 29th 1995. Support by Belly, Magnapop and Blur ! Best day ever !

[@zarleymcalpine3131]

Love the scream at 2:43

[@davidfraser5748]

Regarding the various technical abilities of the members - everyone played to the song. It wasn't about grabbing an opportunity to show off some chops, it was about creating and performing the song. More than most bands, they were a band. Not a singer and back up, or singer with star guitarist, etc. It's why they always sound like REM, and why they spent about half of their career trying to not sound like REM. And just creating a new way to sound like REM.

[@15awesomehighfive]

Eddie Vedder sure loved Mike Mills' jackets, hard not to :) One great bass player too, and a backup vocalist who should be a front man because of how good he sings. Sadly for him, REM had Stipe, so backup it is :D

[@kevinmcgroary1838]

Love REM

Bill Berry and Mike Mills: I'm the real thing! Michael Stipe: Crush with eyeliner!

[@gregdahlen4375]

i could see a singer doing a hula hoop while singing

[@LisaDawnn]

Why does Michael's outfit keep changing during Crush? Seems they spliced two versions together?

[@Safetysweet]

LisaDawnn precisely. They used footage from this and the last night.

[@rockstarpixdottv]

Is that Nathan December on stage on supporting guitar?

[@dermotgodfrey1454]

+Michael Giambra Yes LA club veteran and great guitarist Nathan December!!

[@bridgett2727]

PAID TO CREATE...FOR WHOM??

[@1mazelito]

I never understood don't fuck with me!

[@undenohr]

well you better don't fuck up with him

[@skinzzor]

they were a much better band with berry on drums he was ace

[@kilgoretrout321]

I love how Monster is supposedly the 'rock' album when it's pretty slow tempoed and really classic WB REM poppier song constructions (Stand, pop song 89, get up, radio song). I mean, the guitar stuff is just annoyingly distorted and reverbed. Meanwhile New Adventures rocks and Buck's guitar playing is the perfect combo of rock riffs with explorative amp squeals and ringing notes. And the songs on it are uniquely built and very 90s in their emotive angle

[@Lola-AreaCode212]

The sound is and remains unique.

[@bradfield2266]

The super quick cuts in this video make it unbearable to watch. Yikes.

[@alexjames4064]

Good performance but who’s the chick on bass?

[@VvERingmustmOneven]

Mike Mills :p

[@ripelivejam]

Voluptuous goddess
