I cannot express enough how brilliant I think Stipe is. He's progressive, he's honest, unique, creative, ridiculously intelligent. What an incredible human.
what a nice humble guy
Not humble. Michael is somewhat narcissistic as is evidenced by his "book". I wonder what the price is.
suckittomcat: And I thought, because of Donald Trump, narcissistic is the new "nice and humble"!

*Groan! I don't get it! :-(
I do know that Donald is nice and humble in his private little world of unicorns and wizards and where his fingers are a normal length and he doesn't need spanx to keep his fat gut from blocking his view of his dick when he takes a leak.
not so much narcissistic as dadaist.
the yoyo wizard no correlation
Thanks you R.E.M. your music is helping me get through this time!
When he said butter their bread was he making a Dr. Seuss reference, if so awesome!
I love Michael Stipe so much. He is such a beautiful human being. He's a damn good dancer too.
One of my favourite human beings - pulled out the stops for Bernie.
Wonderful visit by Michael Stipe.
I don't care what anyone says, Michael Stipe is a living icon that revolutionized what a true artist is and can be. He sings, he writes, he paints, he creates. Someone who continues to think out of the box and gifts us with his magic
Fuck, he got old..which means I did, too. Fuck.
He's only 56. Not old by today's standards. So i tell myself. Sigh.
Robert's Art Studio How could he have got so old? Dude is only like 10 years older than me... Oh, right.
and it sneaks up on us
56 is pretty young. He's still younger than my mom!
Robert's Art Studio Anyone with a gigantic gray beard is going to look old, but he is no spring chicken
He looks biblical, even for someone losing his religion.
Buenomars I see what you did there. Zing!
Buenomars you fucking genius
? you do know what that song means right.... lmao
Mitchell Brown It's a song about unrequited love, the feeling of love that can never be reflected back to you by your crush.
Andrew Mythheart lol even if thats exactly what it means how is that biblical? lmao
Man, I need one of those escape holes right about now.
Everything I know about dancing I learned from Michael Stipe. People don't really invite me to parties.
Me too! Every time I watch him dance, I realize why I dance as I do.
+Meg L I'm glad I'm not alone in this. :)
Parties where you can't dance like Michael Stipe aren't parties worth attending.
Yeah, truth!
Like a full body dry heave set to music?
I grew up in the 90's... but this makes me an even BIGGER fan of the after this interview. Never knew much about this guy... he seems really down to earth and intelligent.
One of the greatest lyricists ever
And unique vocalists
Stipe and Letterman both spent the 2010s looking like Garden Gnomes. Both taught me so much about how to be a person and the very many ways to be a man (I'm female).
I SO, SO Love Michael Stipe. What a great human being is right. I'll be getting that album. I miss R.E.M.
Michael is the best I cant say any more......love you so much with all my heart and soul
The artwork / colour of that book reminds me of the pop art artwork of REM's Monster album. I urge anyone who has a car to take 2 CDs with you - Out of Time and New Adventures in Hi-Fi. These 2 albums are actually just as - or more - 'country' as Automatic for the People sometimes get labelled. They are Americana at its best. REM were The Doors meets punk meets surf rock meets glam rock meets industrial rock meets pastoral meets folk meets funk meets blues meets soul (eg Tongue) and so on. Many songs are like mini films in their own right. Much of the first half of Out of Time , to me, is like a companion piece to that of Green. A quirky, upbeat opening song, a soaring second song, a pensive and mysterious third song, a very upbeat pop fourth song, a fifth song that suggests games in its title 'Endgame', 'World Leader Pretend' respectively. REM deserved every award going, particularly for Lifes Rich Pageant through to Up.
Picnicl 💯!
two great discs for sure, sadly my new truck doesn't have a cd player. it does hook to my ipod, however, and I frequently play both. especially new adventures. I also love accelerate.
I need this book! REM is the band I've been listening to the most through COVID-19.
REM shaped me into the person I am today.
I am a murderer.
A murmurer ?!
How many have you killed!?
I got all emotional. I think I'm in love. Again.
Nice book.. but I'd rather have an orange crush.
Let it be noted that this man didn't stroke his beard during this interview. He didn't stroke it..... not once!
4:36 im so sorry
TedBearMan Fuck!
2:33 we will remember u always
Hurb Snarebergowitz Ahh!
I was actually stroking my little one while reading this comment :D
Very well put Michael Stipe. 🎼
He is Not only a human as we would need more of them he is a unique Cosmopolite Now would be a good Time Sir
"It's the end of the world as we know it...".
what a gem
If bearded Letterman interviewed Stipe, how would we know who is who?
The one who waits for his turn to speak, the less pretentious one, person with a great speaking voice, one with more intelligence, one with better manners will be Michael.
"Thank you for docking your tug boat to be here" 😂
True legend right there boys and girls ^
rip in peaced cliff
Don't forget gay.
suckittomcat that's not entirely true, although he's always been somewhat sexually ambiguous, he is currently I believe in a relationship with a man. Just as easily been a woman if he had fallen in love with her. Either way, what does it matter?
the 'legend' is that he has any Real talent....
dprite1
It matters. I'm queer. It matters. You're right, though. Ambiguity is "safer" just like when Elton John first came out as the "safer" bisexual. But Stipe has said his sexuality is fluid (like mine) so I stand corrected. Gay just seemed easier to say (lazy). :-)
so in love! our of time was the whole soundtrack to my youth! I will always have a place for Michael and R.E.M in my heart.
"It's been a rough year." Oh, Michael, if only you knew then what I know now.
this is a goddamned legend here. theyve helped more people than anyone can admit.
Bennie, looks like you have a different definition of Legend. When you make seminal music and everyone in the modern music industry respects you, you get the "Legend" tag.
I think he's starting a whole line of Acme products.
I love this man. I wish I could be more like him.
Fun relevant fact: Thom Yorke (member of the band: Radiohead) was inspired by Michael to write 'How to Disappear Completely', when Michael was giving Thom advice on dealing with overwhelming stress. Or at least that's what I understand happened. Also, Yorke was asked what single moment he would most like to be remembered for. His response was 'How To Disappear Completely'. So, thanks Michael.
will always be cool to me. l love this guy.
Such a humble funny beautiful talented man. Love forever!
A real, living Gnome.
"It's been a rough year", 2016
Looking forward to the 2020 interview....
Legend right here! He looks so happy. Good to see!
Thumbnail looks like David Cross in disguise :)
Sinan Kargı this is why I clicked the video.
He's the hipster elf on the shelf!
The electors need to be patriots? What could that possibly mean? Celebrities are losing their minds.
Yeah!
thought it was David Cross in the thumbnail
Me too!!!
Weird, I thought it was David Spade.
Chesty LaRue I thought it was a Duck Dynasty member.
awww I wish Stephen had asked him about his vocal support for Chelsea Manning. It's officially her birthday right now and she's had a VERY tough year.
Question: What was your First musical performance you've attended?
Response: REM (Green tour Las Cruses)
His talking voice sounds nothing like his singing voice.
haha, thank's for showing up and docking your tugboat!
being 45 and this band is my generation of music its sad to see him look so much older.. hes such a cutie no matter and I love REM>> always
"That's me in the corner, that's me out of the spotlight losing my Norelco."
Wow, he seems scattered. And looks so different. But I love the book, and he ends on a very sharp note!
How do we know that isn't really David Cross under that beard?
I ask that question every time I look in a mirror.
David Cross couldn't possibly sound like this if he smoked five packs a day, so there's your clue.
The nose is not hit flat with a hammer.
Legend
Life And How To Live It.
Love the book with no pages, as even illiterate people can read it, love the concept as it says exactly what you want to read and escape with into never never land.
What a sweet guy
I thought it was David Cross doing a parody (just in the thumb nail)
SpecialHandlingUnit I thought it was David Cross.
WestCoastPCbuilder Now I want a David Cross, Michael Stripe dual interview/performance/Rabbi dance off.
Matisyahu can't come.
Beard of the month club winner!!!
He looks way older tha he actually is. He looks like 75 and he is 57.
Michael Stipe's "book" is like Yoko Ono-style "art."
2 words: Garden Gnome
I'd buy that for $300 before I'd buy Apple's book.
He looks like one of the dwarves in snow white
He looks like a cross between a Christmas Elf and the Santa on Miracle on 34th Street
he's more of an elf than he is a Santa.. It was in an 'Irish independent' article on Mon/Tues that St. Nicolas is buried in Thomastown..
he saved some kids.. the legend commercialised is said to be based on him.
I think he was a semi dwarf or little person from a history encyclopaedia page on him & a statue pic; hence elves
There's something so fatherly about him, he's just a wonderful man. Hell his last few albums may have been mediocre, but that doesn't stop him from being a legend.
so he did the real life of family guys Wish it, Want it, Do it?
He looks great for 73
Yeah, and that WOULD definitely be a great Christmas gift on Monday...
That hat makes him look like Papa Smurf
This answers "where is the cartoon escape hatch for me?"
that voice
if anyone of us had come up with a book with an
"escape hole", they'd ALL think we were really different and really strange and wonder what was wrong..although I do love Michael Stipe ...this was just a little strange.
deborah bonney strange is good
Wow. Late 2016. Electoral college. And what happened next? Bravo, Michael.
Fjallraven pants, this man is prepared to bug out anytime.
roy keane lost his irish accent real quickly
lil' wayne writes albums with no music
what else for heads without a brains to listen to.
Utopian National Anthem (John Lennon).
Man, haven't seen Michael Stipe in a hot minute. Digging the BEARD, it says, "I am tougher than the PAIN."(Michael Stipe not to be confused with Scott Stapp)
Stipe is a creative genius at least as good as Dylan and the other 20th century poet giants.
This man is such an interesting, talented, beautiful human being. Wish he was a friend of mine.
love stipe and rem; don't agree with all his politics, but he's a pure soul who fronted one of the best live bands i ever saw..saw them at reunion arena in dallas, first show of monster tour in '95..serena altschul was broadcasting live with mtv..big event..stipe had just had hernia surgery two weeks or so beforehand and even told the crowd "i'm pretty much frozen from the waist down"..point is that the show went on, he did his best and u couldn't really tell..that's work ethic
Elves Impersonator
To get yourself in the holiday spirit, listen to REM singing "Christmas Griping".
thank you for docking your tugboat....
From the thumbnail I thought it was David Cross playing a character
Used to live across from this guy on Hiawassee St!! Wore a bat costume one rainy halloween do you remember?????
No, because his house is not on Hiawassee Street
25 years since Out of Time. Wow. That was one of my first CDs.
Skid row Santa.....inspired!
OMG, that entrance made me think of a dog greeting
wow the last -time they performed was 2011, man that seems like ages ago
I really love Michael!
He's so nice and cool, I wish REM would make a comeback!
it's great to see mike again
Came for the beard, was not disappointed :)
man the dry cleaners tag on his jacket is so swag.. He doesnt give a fuck , is gettimg old and still starting new trends.
It actually says I'M WITH THEY
"Hey now that's not very nice, I don't sound like that at all! You're making me sound like Michael Stipe."
Skid Row Santa lmao
that's a beard to write home about
Homeless man, Moses, Grizzly Adams all rolled into one.
