Hexann Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Do you like R.E.M ( this is a band). You can discuss R.E.M in this topic!!!!!I have only heard and this song quickly caught my interest it is "It's The End of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" by of course R.E.M.

Legolover-361 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Out of the R.E.M. songs I do know (two albums' worth), a bunch seem to have the same chords. "It's the End of the World As We Know It (and I Feel Fine)" is my favorite. Quote (( BZPRPG profiles: Kynaera, Nova )) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant-Sud Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 "That's me in the corner, that's me in the spot, light, losing my religion!"<3 R.E.M. Losing my Religion is a great song. But the first song that got me into them was The One I Love. I used to hear it in this cheesy commercial like ten years ago, but I never forgot the song. I have their 1982-2011 album. It's pretty great. :3 Quote The Island with a Lot of CavesCurly Brace | Sue | King | Polar Star | Outer Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeko Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Oh man, Losing my Religion is a great song. I've been learning the Mandolin part to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojol Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 One of my favorite bands.Losing my Religion has been my favorite song for years."I thought that I heard you laughing, I thought that I heard you sing, I think I thought I saw you try... But that was just a dream, that was just a dream..."Despite that being my favorite song, my favorite album is probably "Lifes Rich Pageant".

Grant-Sud Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Well see, Losing My Religion isn't really about losing your religion at all. It's about losing faith in someone and he's comparing it to losing his religion. (I'm pretty sure...)A lot of songs are misunderstood like that, but I have to admit when I was younger I could have sworn it was about love. lolI really like Everybody Hurts, Nightswimming and Man on the Moon too.

It's not their own phrase. The song is about unrequited love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeko Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The phrase 'Losing your religion' can also mean just losing it. As in going crazy.I think they were going for a little of both when they wrote the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kojol Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 What is it REM acronym of?REM is "rapid eye movement". It's a phase of sleep.The band says they chose it because it sounds cool and claim that, in their case, it stands for "rapid ear movement".^Also, I know the words to that song."The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide, Mount Saint Edelaide, Leonard Bernstein, Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce, and Lester Bangs, birthday party, cheesecake, jellybeans, BOOM!"...That line is based on a dream.

At least, that's how I've always heard it. I have that song memorized! (Hopefully with the correct lyrics...)

Jean Valjean Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 "STAND in the place where you wereNow face North!Think about directionWonder why you haven't beforeNow STAND in the place where you workNow face West!Think about the place where you liveWonder why you haven't beforeIf you are confused check with the sunCarry a compass to help you alongYour feet are going to stay on the ground;Your head is there to move you around!"I'm surprised that I'm the first to mention that song. It's one of those truly catchy pieces that I'd love to have in the background if ever I needed excessive energy. It puts me on a serious high.I also really like "It's the End of the World As We Know It", if only because it's so applicable.To my understanding, the term "loosing my religion" is Southern for "loosing my temper and dignity", although I might be wrong. In any case, it's fairly similar to what everyone else has been saying, though not quite the same.Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus Kraggh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
