RIP Steve Hills (1967-2010) This song was played at Steve's funeral today, selected from the many he loved and sang including with his mates as an R.E.M. cover band. Goodbye our Star.
This video was filmed at my (now-closed) high school. I wasn't even aware of it until today, and although I graduated some 17 years before it was shot, I was moved by these images. Seeing those hallways, those kids-and even my former gym teacher Mr. Nash-felt like looking into the past.
Really, that is so sad. Think of all the memories impressed forever in a high school. 😥I sometimes dream of still being a student at my high school. Was this in Reno?. I have relatives who live there now. Real reply and I'll ask my family if they know this school, assuming it is in Reno (I can't be another.) God speed.
@@wishicouldshowmyname5815 The school (Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School) was in Brooklyn, NY. It closed as a high school in 2014, but I think it's still used, at least in part, as a public school for pre-K and lower grades.
Michael I played this song every day. Newly divorced at 50 not knowing what I would do. Finally got a job faking my way through and played your song every day going to work to give me courage. And for that and so much more, I thank you.
Michael Stipe's voice is like honey mixed with butter, sugar and a smooth cognac served by a fire, while wrapped up in a warm blanket and looking up to the stars..........His voice is the epitome of bliss......
The song's video was shot at Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School in the Prospect Park area of Brooklyn, New York. It was directed by Michael Moore and filmed by four students from the host and other local schools. The guy with the megaphone is Bertis Downs, REM's manager. Thank you Wikipedia :)
I wanna cry from happiness %) everywhere I go I see strong and brave people fighting loneliness, suicide and depression, celebrating power, beauty, life and love :)
One of the best American voices ever. I have seldom seen REM as happy as they seem to be here, where they show a genuine love for people. Bonding of souls, universal love, hugs for everyone. Art to art, heart to heart.

Every kid should hear this song whilst they're going to school. You might not be the next big sports star or musician. You are YOU, nobody else. You are going to be a star at something. It might not come to you straight away. But it will.
There is a better chance of becoming a physician than a successful musician. Kids need to be what they are best at. Maybe a musician, maybe a physician!
The songwriting in REM was a collaboration between all members of the band. But MS did, I think, write most of the melodies over riffs and chord sequences written by the others. This makes him one of the greatest melodists of all time.
To my unborn baby you’re gonna be a star ⭐️ I’m 6 months pregnant 🤰 mommy loves you baby 05 October 2019 first time listening to the song and fell in love with it 🥰 I’m a big fan of R.E.M but never heard the song before. 😊😊😊 on repeat ❤️❤️❤️
I don't know what it had, but I feel like 2001 was the break between two eras. I was 13 at the time, and I had a blast that year, it was actually the best year I ever had, even tho I didn't achieved any dream or goals, I used to enjoy everything, from the morning sun to the music playing on the radio, this track gives me so many good memories of that year. The next year I lost my grandmother (who was one of my favourite persons) and my father because of a devastating leukaemia (first signs in October, he passed in December). Then the cellphone technologic era, which I still can't get used to. I miss those times. I wish I live forever in 2001.
Stormylicious Princeso I can relate to what you are saying and feeling and I am now in my early 50’s. 2001 marked the end of innocence for the world as we knew it in The U.S.. I enjoyed air travel pre 9/11. I had a similar experience to yours. I loved the 80’s and wish I could relive them. In 92 I lost my mom to Cancer, 94 my grandfather to heart disease and 97 my father to a heart attack. Those events derailed my life. I realized the only thing you can’t make more of is time and you can never get back the past and memories fade with age. All we have is each other and the time we have now and it is up to us to make the most of it and surround ourselves with good people and the ones we love. Keep your chin held high and keep moving forward.
@lakewood85 Actually, research has shown that a lot of memories (possibly all of them) are still inside our heads. They just have few neural pathways connecting to them, so it's hard to remember these memories most of the time.
@@ttv_mister_vic467 I think he or she knows well. The government sended its own kids to war and mass murder based on lies: 9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq or Lybia and there were no weapons of mass destruction. To justify it, you have to invent a gradient in the worth of the people, you need to establish an atmosphere of fear and good and evil, where killing and torturing is acceptable and a strong gradient of power, where one follows the orders and the other gives orders to kill. It might not be fascism, but something not completely different. But these people were not born on 9/11. There was no innocence before, otherwise this would never have happened. And there were not only bad times after. Here in Europe, it was clearly a big issue, too, but nothing completely exceptionel. We had terror attacs before and after and better, but also much worse times.
I also want to say I love all of you in REM. You could never be you without all of you. A true gift for all of us. Thanks for all your music. You have been a great help to live life.
Please reunite, you have so much to give the world. You can still take breaks etc. Peter Buck you are an excellent artist, as well as Mike, don't let it go to rot. You are the nes.
I love this vid and the fact that the kids are allowed to be the stars here. I always watch it with a huge grin on my face, hoping that every child will be allowed to feel that good about themselves. You're gonna be a star, kid! Even if that won't come true, at least you should feel you always have that possibility.
Which is not true. This idea is something close to the "American dream", but look what it has become: Many kids and adults have lived in shit for years and will live in shit, while some few "stars" build high walls around their property, collect more and more money and shares, buy lot's of guns to defend it or buy people to do this job until the planet is completely ruined from inside and outside poison. This dream has become a nightmare and it might be better to wake up and fix some things, before we can dream again. People need dreams and we outside need America, but not in this shape.
Florian Meier I agree. The American dream is nothing more than a fantasy, unfortunately most people have very few options. I think more and more Americans are starting to realize that.
I heard this as I was leaving Walled-Mart today. IRS-era R.E.M. is one of my favorite bands, the middle stuff is pretty nice, they started losing me at Hifi, and I was gone after that. But, when you're in Walled-Mart, any R.E.M. is better than none. I dug this. Came back here to listen to it properly. One thing about the later albums is all the songs, to me, sound like they're about to sing an older song. This one makes me think of "Star 69."
This is the best video ever! It touches my heart that Michael sings to these kids that they are special and tells them their dreams are valid and will come true. Kids don't get enough validation and Michael's message is golden.
I remember watching this on mtv when i was on summer holiday in 2001, awesome memories of an happy childhood. I was 11 everything was going fine and then everything broke down in a sudden, it was like the end of innocence, the end of an era...
I am a teacher, Iam from Uruguay...so far away from USA both geographically and culturally speaking...and I relate so much to this vídeo, If I think of My students...thanks ❤️
my mother always told me since i was 3, she always used to sing this when she was pregnant with me. i always listen to this song when i need something to motivate me
@@allisgrace1313 It's a pretty unfortunate thing, that it's not really what life throws at you, but how you handle it, that matters. For the US, it wasn't really about 9/11 itself, it's that the US handled it poorly. The US handled Pearl Harbor wonderfully, and it became the greatest country on earth as a result. It handled 9/11 poorly, and it stopped being the greatest country on earth.
They must've had so much fun filming this video! Many of the teenagers look somewhat despondent though. Maybe it's just regular high school awkwardness? Well, anyway it still must've been so cool for these kids to have REM hanging out with them for the day! The saddest thing however, is that this small private NYC school closed due to budget problems.
It makes you feel something because it was written and made with heart ❤.. it's a song so close to human.. more than 20 years back, 2020 today, it still makes me feel that something too..
I wish REM would reform to shoot the same video at the same place with the same people in 2020 (or after we are allowed out of our homes after the pandemic passes in 2057)

Can't be done..................that school is now permanently shut down.
Mr Stipe simply writes amazing songs (that you just can't imagine anyone else singing)... and this is one of his best. As others have written, life affirming and heartbreakingly beautiful. If he was Japanese, I expect they would have already declared him a "Living National Treasure".
The 90's. When the worst part of schools was the principal announcing something on a damn megaphone. Things really were better back then. They really, really were.

Those facts make it even more kino.
Arguably REMs best song of their late period.
I wanna cry from happiness %) everywhere I go I see strong and brave people fighting loneliness, suicide and depression, celebrating power, beauty, life and love :)
Love this.
Never gets played on radio.
2001 used to be this magical year representing the far away future. Now it's just ages ago.
And then we saw what happened later that year that completely changed the future for the worst :(

Humming all the way to Reno
You've dusted the non believers
And challenged the laws of chance
Now, sweet
You were so sugar sweet
You may as well have had 'kick me'
Fastened on your sleeve
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
Wing is written on your feet
Your Achilles heel is a tendency to dream
But you've known that from the beginning
You didn't have to go so far
You didn't have to go
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are
Humming all the way to Reno
You've written your own directions
And whistled the rules of change
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
Humming all the way to Reno
You're gonna be a star, you are
You're gonna be a star
You're gonna be a star, you are
You're gonna be a star

Absolute favorite song by REM. The tune is ethereal and makes one nostalgic for a time that never was

One of their best for sure.

aww reveal! we used to listen to this album when we went to visit my mom at work. i just remember tiny me singing all the words i knew with my dad
I was obsessed with this music video in 4th grade when we didnt have TH-cam yet you just had to catch it on TV
I at 65 still luv you all like the first time I heard you..A Long Time ago
j'adore la voix de Mike Stipe, un groupe vraiment génial !
Best music video ever
