    R.E.M. was really incredible in their prime. They literally made 10 or so near-perfect records in a row and always have conducted themselves with dignity.

      I went back and forth every other week in the late '80's on whether "Fall On Me" or "Don't Dream It's Over" were the greatest rock ballad's ever. Then, in '91, Neil Finn wrote "Fall At Your Feet" and added to the conflict. Jules Shear's "If We Never Meet Again" gets some of my votes as well. But "Fall On Me" was my first 'most beautiful ballad ever.'

      Stipe is watching Mills to make sure his timing is on target to come back into his own vocals. Lots of singers do that when singing live. Timing is everything in a live performance.

    When here this song. It reminds me of a English Girl I dated name Nicky. She went to REM when they was just starting to get big. We saw them at the Mesa Amphitheater. They were fantastic. I really thought I would marry Nicky but it wasn't meant to be. I married the love of my life and have been married since 1988. I saw this band again after married the love of my life I know that Nicky found her love, but when are young times were different but memories still linger at how much fun we had at seeing REM for the first time!😅😊

    I'm not a scholar of music, but it seems that these guys developed a style of moving up and down scales (arpegylation?) that transcended genres. Even today, when I find myself liking a song, the most obvious reason is that it traces back to REM, or maybe Kansas.

    • @MaurizioMusic
      @MaurizioMusic ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeap - they had a droning open string - chimney jangly sound that literally set the tone for many bands to come in the late 80s and 90s. And indeed the arpeggiation is what gives the songs a both melodic and dissonant sound - a sort of tension and release. This band is a lesson on how to write great pop songs. Even if an artists style is different - there is lots to learn from the REM catalog for sure. Berry is also one of the best rock drummers ever in my humble opinion.
