When Stipe misses his cue at 1:48 for the tag line, you can see Mike Mills quietly whispering the words ("And waste another year"). Then Stipe sheepishly smiles at his miscue and carries on. The gaff actually makes this video more endearing.

I was pretty sure I heard Mike's voice harmonizing in this song and that helped me figure out it was an REM song I was hearing for the first time. I heard a different rendering of the song, more heavily produced, and it was very hard to recognize who the band was, who the lead singer was. In this version, I immediately knew it was REM . Great song!

Like you can just pick up a guitar and start playing and out comes this wonderful song! But it’s not like that for most people. Just them and those other great bands that had that special magic that fate brought them together for apparently. They were so lucky to have that. It’s like they won the lottery!

Used to cover this song w my band at Rollins College(X Club), 92 or so - I'm a drummer. In 2000 I was hanging out w Mike Mills late night after some drinks at my place in Atlanta - told him we'd played this song many times live - along w Driver 8, One I love... He was dating a girl friend of mine from school at the time, Brooke . Super nice guy, Mike was. It was about 2am, we were smoking a cigarette on my porch - he seemed to like the idea that we covered some of their music. I liked that he liked it, honestly. He's a gracious, kind and warm individual. I hung out w him maybe a half dozen times - only once talked about REM with him, it was that night. Before, I didn't want to sound like a douchy fan even though I was and still am a huge REM fan. What a swell fellow - my best to Mike Mills. Fond memories of hanging out for a bit in the 90's. Yes, the 90's - if you weren't there for it, I'm sorry but you'll never understand. No cell phones, no social media - just present people living present lives. Interesting people - records, books, instruments, shows, coffee, drinks, talking about these things with no 'audience' other than those who were present and no desire to expand upon it beyond that. I wouldn't trade it for youth - not todays' youth - not if I couldn't have experienced those times. Thrilled I had it then, happy to ride it out from here - lots of peace and love, y'all 🙂

I helped move my keyboardist's Hammond B3 out to Mellencamp's Belmont studio for that session. We got a call from Kenny Aronoff asking if our keyboard player would like to rent his B3 for a session REM would be doing there (Kenny was a friend of ours through our guitarist. He filled in on a three-day gig in Nashville one weekend when our drummer broke his foot). Pretty cool fun memory of my Indiana days.

that was beautiful. time passes so quickly. i remember getting the same goosebumps the first time I heard this song, when it was JUST released. I was instantly addicted to R.E.M., this cut & 'Radio Free Europe', summer of 1983 while in college. I had a radio show and remember the singles coming out wayyy before they were hits, like a lot of amazing music those years... about R.E.M., I also remember thinking they must have been influenced by Michael Nesmith of the Monkees, the texas twang in the lyrics/performance here very remeniscent of him and "Take The Last Train To Clarksville". Could've been, "Don't Go Back To Clarksville"...lol.. I also remember being in Rockville, Maryland for work the following summer & couldn't get the song out of my head.

I was in high school and my family had driven my older bro to some Engineering Camp at the US Naval Base nearby. Had already listened to Murmur and liked it, and saw this near release date (didn’t even notice there was a song about Rockville on the album). It’s a sort of love song from Mikey to a girl that was leaving Athens for a while. Top 20 songs of all time.

I heard this song on my radio this morning. It was a different version, not this bare bones style. It was the first time I'd ever heard this song and I really liked it. In the recording I heard on my radio , it was very hard to recognize who was singing. It was more heavily produced, like an album cut. I'm pretty good at recognizing bands and singers and lead quitarists, and I had a fairly good idea I was hearing some EARLY REM . I couldn't wait to hit utube and type in what I thought the song title might be. SURE ENOUGH! I was right. Micheal Stipe with HAIR early! Now in this pared down acoustic rendition I knew immediately it was REM. How did I miss this little beauty for all these years? Very cool finding this tune and then seeing this great video of the band. Awesome! I love playing musical trivia with myself and I must boast a little that I am VERY good at it. I've not met too many people that are as good as I am. I am so sure of myself that I once bet my original 1987 Pontiac Firebird GTA against a guy with a brand new Corvette Stingray. I won. It was a sweet win! I'm 68 and live and breathe music from The Beatles to Death Metal to Grunge, everything from 1964 and on to today. Anyway, great present whenever I find a great new song or some new steller artist.

@@GreenCanvasInteriorscape We were in The Porthole Lounge in Tampa, FL. Playing a SERIOUS game of music trivia. The whole bar was watching me and this guy play. The question I won with was: what is the name of the album that just came out that is a play on words from The 5 Man Electrical Band who had the hit song "Signs" in the 70s and who is the Artist that released it? A 2 parter!! OMG! But I knew both answers and I started getting REALLY excited. I answered ; the artist is Tesla and the album is titled The 5 Man Acoustical Jam. Yesurie, Bob! I won! I remember that I thought I just lucked out because I thought that question was a "gimmie ". It just seemed too easy! I thought "Everybody's gotta know this", but NO, I quess they didn't! SO, that was the 10 thousand dollar question that night! Thanks for asking me! You're a sweetheart!! Peace!

It was songs like Rockville that blew my mind when I first heard REM - their earlier stuff - up to Monster I think - holds such sweet memories for me 🙂 It was Murmur first then Fables and Reckoning , then Document and Green and Automatic. All legendary.

The 60s and the 80s/90s were two very different periods, but in both eras selling out (to me) meant tailoring your music for mass appeal in order to make money. By the 80s, when a band signed to a big label so that they could reach more people having pressure from corporate folks came with the territory. Band members shouldn't be thinking about how many units a song is going to move while creating a song.
