Michael Stipe cringes at his solo, raw vocals of the song Losing My Religion. Peter Buck explains how he likes fans to hear demo cuts to document the history of the band. Michael still struggles hearing demo cuts.
REM
Everybody hates hearing their own voice, but Michael's performance here is classic and iconic.
Mick and Elton love theirs. They won’t shut up.
It's interesting to see such an accomplished artist still have that cringe at their own voice.
Dude is so humble which makes him even more of a legend. He laid down an iconic vocal performance there, one of many
I really hate my voice but if millions loved it then i would feel better about it
John Lennon never liked his. Seems quite mad
His speaking voice and his singing voice are both gorgeous in different ways.
Michael's voice is iconic. Awesome, just pure talent!! When you hear him sing you immediately think REM.
One of the greatest voices ever.
How can he ever have hated his voice? The pitch and clarity of it is amazing when in full performance.
Most people hate their own voice when listening to it on a recording. It's just cringe naturel xD
@@deathkampdrone Yes, I've heard the same thing. Hearing your own voice isolated is brutal, no matter how good it is.
This is something that people who do not sing can not comprehend. It has nothing to do self-confidence, but rather, standards. Most really good singers are so hypercritical of their own voices that sometimes they can't stand to hear it unaccompanied. I totally understand where Mr. Stipe is coming from.
@@Azabaxe80 Well, also your voice sounds different when its recorded. Your voice rattles around in your skull, what you hear yourself is different from the recorded voice. It just is, it's undeniable.
Lennon hate his voice too
It sounded beautiful. I agree with Peter, I am interested let them out. We appreciate the outtakes and the rough drafts, it's all a part of the journey to the published piece and worth the review. Golly I miss seeing y'all live!
Most innovative world changing products have rough unpolished prototypes that precede them. It’s just a natural part of the process.
I do think it's good for young people who want to make music to see their idols had to strive and make mistakes too
I like to hear demos and outtakes especially of my favourite bands or songs it's good to hear how the song started and hear the
musical differences lyrical difference tempos, arrangements and how songs grow into the final version,
One of the most iconic voices in music history, instantly recognisable and capable of passing thru so much emotion even if you found the lyrics impenetrable. Oh and in my humble opinion, the greatest rock band ever, behind him too. Still miss these guys.
I love that he wants it out there for the people who are interested. ❤
The raw version is beautiful ❤
EXTREMELY!
I like hearing or seeing rough cuts by artists and the insecurities they have; it proves that they're only human! Finished versions full of confidence and commitment seems so beyond what normal humans can do... but there was a path before they arrived at that.
Michael cuts a rough demo vocal better than 95%+ of every person on earth could ever do with the best studio equipment imaginable and doesn't like it LOL. Such a talent and perfectionist.
It's so worthwhile watching this whole episode on Netflix. Even in separate interviews the chemistry of the four band members is palpable. You can easily see how they made one another better. And they all offer great reflections on this classic recording.
what show is it?
I love hearing Peter Buck's perspective in this clip. His interviews are always 👨🍳💋
I feel like it’d be fun to get shitfaced with Peter and just talk about whatever
It's so beautiful. Looking at the raw marble before the master takes the chisel and creates the masterpiece. It hurts to see him so embarrassed, but I understand as someone who hides behind that deep emotion to keep from creating. Bless Michael Stipe for his courage. I have so much love, compassion, admiration, and gratitude for him in my soul.
0:38 little detail that i love is that he opened his eyes right when he sang the word “eyes”. pretty neat!
Like any artist - a painter, a sculptor, a toy maker, a blue printer, or a musician - Michael is hyper-critical of his own talent, seeing and hearing "flaws" that are perfection to his audience.
Brilliant voice. Iconic band. Hearing just Michael’s vocals gave me goosebumps
It feels genuine and from the soul and that is what made the song really soar above the landscape. Cool video.
As if that man's voice could be anything but incredible and more so raw!❣️
beautiful human, beautiful gift to all including him.R.E.M will be played forever.
He sings his heart out to us
Out of time and Automatic for the people are probably my two favourite albums, brings back such mixed feelings of happiness after spending a year in Australia and sadly a few months after I returned home l lost my beautiful mum . Beautiful songs !
Check out "Automatic For the Penis" by Penis Your Majesty.
Automatic is my favorite album of theirs, and I have all the early ones that I love. Document is a very, very close second. Green holds a special place in my heart.
That pain came back to him so hard, its always part of him, its not easy for him to relive that unrequited hurt in his voice
Listening to demos is like reading a rough draft of a great novel. They didn't release the demo for a reason...but once the great work is released and accepted, its nice to go back and hear or see or read how that thing got made and the revisions it went through to become what it became.
Peter Buck is the coolest dude
That’s the beauty of Art, as artists we want it to be so perfect not realizing it already is with each individual artists unique touch on it
The beauty of this song is unsurpassed, and hasn’t diminished over the passing of time.
It was the right song at the right time, and is now a permanent marker in history.
I never liked it but heard an analysis of the musical merits on youtube and begrudgingly thought maybe I had misjudged. Still for as big as that song was I cannot help but prefer any of about 75% of their songs other than that, at least of their output to that point.
@@etamommy I think it’s a combination of songwriting skill, musicianship, timing and luck as to how any song is received. A whole lot of stars need to align for a hit.
You make a good point in that some artists have better songs, which weren’t liked as much as others or which weren’t released. There are many album tracks or b-sides from many artists, which were superior to single releases.
My favorite singers have always been those that would never win, the Voice, I don’t want polished perfection, I want raw emotion, personality and honesty, and Michael’s voice is all of that. But we are all our own worst critics and I can definitely understand not liking your own voice or performance; it’s normal
Favourite song of my childhood and now it hasn't changed
One of the mist underrated voices of all time
Mist Difinitely
Truly!
@@futureskeletons66669 Only his friends call him ‘Mist Difinitely’.
You’ll address him as *Mister* _Difinitely._
one of the most overrated type of comments of all time
Underrated by no one.
Michel's is the one voice that can, and that does, reduce me into tears at any given moment. Just like that. No other reason needed - just his voice. Just hits me somewhere in my soul. Such beauty that i feel it as pain...
Stipe is such a great man and artist. I love his humbleness.
This is such a beautiful clip. Many people hate hearing the sound of their own voice, but Michael Stipe's voice has always struck me (and obviously many others) as sincere and beautiful. This cut is hearing a great song in progress. :)
I admire this man so much.
LOVE this band. They struck me as such artists and yet became a pop band that changed their sound a dozen times and yet it was still always REM
That short Video of him , made me miss him. Miss R.E.M. and my own twenties when I was enjoying them. I feel, that I still do.
This tiny Video really touches me.
Man this brings me back to 1991, freshman year in high school and this thing was all over MTV in constant rotation. Great times
I don't know why this brings tears to my eyes every time...
Beautiful
Si commuove ascoltando la sua stessa grandezza...voce epica immortale..grande Michael immensi REM❤🎸
Incredible voice. He's crazy talented and humble with it.
I LOVE YOU MICHAEL 😘
Micheal pls dont be embarrassed or cringe over your naked voice buddy, your voice and song writing are iconic!!!!!!!
The emotion in that cuts soooo deep............. Glad I witnessed it live, 3 times in Ireland.
Made my 90’s . I grew up to this and everything else. Best decade of music ever. REM was part of the best music ever. 1990’s rules.
I love Michael s personality. I love his chilling voice. Thank you MS❤
Michael Stipes, I feel is as genuine as a person can be. I am not gay, but I saw him say in an interview once when asked about coming out, he said, "I don't think I ever knew what love was, until I realized the feelings I had for him". He was so sincere. I am totally opposite of his political views, but I admire his conviction and his commitment to what he believes in, and it makes me try to be more understanding of things I don't agree with. Why? Their music is so captivating and the lyrics, all by Stipes, have been a part of my artistry, and my basic soul since I heard them. If that's the case, I must have at least some common grounds with them....
Dude, what do you mean?? I've got chills running down my spine, my mouth was open hearing that...
That voice was breathtaking
His voices is incredible has a quality to identify his intelligence is the way u learned a lot from his humility as a person
Great song. Great performance. Thanks for being “there.”
the philosophy of Pete at the end is wonderful. always enjoyed seeing him, afternoons at The Roadhouse...ahhh Athens...
Fantastic voice! Mesmeric performer!
Its so awesome to see/hear the roots of your favorite songs and how that song came to be and what it became. Love it.
That’s guy is a creative genius
I love Micheal Stipe and REM
Sends chills up my spine.
beautiful
You gotta love the out takes. It highlights the process and hard work it takes to turn a rock into a diamond
My all time favourite song
I love the demos, the rawness and the beginnings of a journey.
Love him!!!! I wish they were still touring......
We need you Sir .
Stunning vocal when you hear it isolated. Love listening to demos, the embryonic stage.
People are strange, when you're a stranger, [voices look ugly] when you're alone." Love REM. Love singing covers.
The thing michael needs to realise about thise songs is its not JUST his voice. Its how someone couod be so sweet kind sensitive and empathetic enough in this world to write a song this beautiful.
His voice is great. Still to this day. But things like his Colbert version of No Time For Love Like Now belong in the world.
There will never be a more raw and complete version recorded than the first time he performed it on tv at the start of the pandemic.
But for some reason i have to watch a derez version some dude uploaded when it was removed off The Late Shows video lineup
I knew that song was a masterpiece when I first heard it! A song about unrequited love. Most of my life, I have been too shy to tell anyone that I loved them. It could have been my anthem!
♥
❤ his voice.
Few bands sound like the eighties like this band does. I was there. I lived it while it was happening. And a lot of REM songs were on that soundtrack.
This song was so compelling the moment I first heard it.
I love the demos. It shows the process that they took to get to the final version.
As a fan I find the demos to be like live performances… slight variations of the original that make the song even better with each version you hear.
The "few people" that are interested? How about the MILLIONS of us that are interested & miss you all terribly?!
This will forever be our song Jada. I miss you tremendously. Hope you’re well.
Michael has a great and totally unique voice, but when you hear it isolated you clearly see that REM is soooo much more than just "Michael's voice being supported by a band".
I saw Peter Buck solo on stage with just an acoustic guitar at the 9.30 club. Mesmerizing.
One of the first songs I listened to over and over
Stipe is still recognizable as REM from 35 years ago
Anybody who is looking for demos of popular songs is a big fan of the artist and normally just find the demo interesting and different because it doesn’t sound like the hit song they’ve heard so many times. Even if it isn’t as “good” die hard fans always love hearing different takes and versions of songs. The more content they can get the better, if every artist had video documentation of every album they made, the big fans would pay to watch it be made and love every minute of the footage. Artists should never be worried about demos sounding weird or off. The real fans love it all and they know it’s not the finished version.
I have loved REM for so long!
This teared me up...
I really wish someone would make a definitive documentary about R.E.M.
Bill, Peter, Mike and Michael have left the world a much better place than they found it. We should all be so lucky!
From Breaking Dad to this - he's so talented.
IS VOICE IS EVEN MORE POWEFRUL ON IT'S OWN ....AMAZING
Such a distinct voice.
It’s comforting to know that even some of the all time greats cants stand the sound of their own voice. I think it maybe gives me more confidence?? 😊
I love it honestly!
Perfect. Stipe’s humility is refreshing.
Incredible song
Peter Buck has his head on straight.
It was on mtv and vh1 at the same time. I witnessed it more than once. Its a good song. At 10 yrs old i knew it was a good song
Same, i was 6. Great music is usually undeniable.
It was one of the best songs when I grew up in Scotland.
I listened to Green the other day for the first time in years. That's such an accomplished album. These guys were sorted from day-one.
didn't know song exploder was a tv show now, gotta watch
Loved this song still do
Amazing voice.
Amazing voice
David Fincher approached Michael Stipe to play the character of John Doe in the movie, Se7en. Stipe declined, though when Kevin Spacey came on board to play the role, he took many qualities of stipe, including the shaven head and incorporated them in the role.
Absolute perfection ❤
I remember an REM engineer once saying that when he did playbacks with most bands, each of the members would want their parts pushed up in the mix, but with REM, each of the members wanted their parts to be moved lower in the mix.
I love Michael stipe
I ❤ R.E.M😢❤❤
