"It's the end of the world as we know it" "It's time I had some time alone" This song just proves that R.E.M. was secretly composed of 3 time-travellers.
I remember hearing this song for the first time as a kid in the early 2000's thinking it was a fairly recent song, or at least from the late 90's, only to find out WAY later when I found the album that it was from the 80's. I couldn't believe it. It sounds so much like a 90's or early 00's indie rock song.
Yall, i wonder how people in 1918 felt. There was The First World War, little food for the war, Influenza epidemic that killed over 100 million, and so much death. It’s literally the four horses of the apocalypse 😳
I was thinking about this a few days ago, and I realized that this is likely the first global, widespread pandemic that nearly everyone actually *knows* about. The flu pandemic in 1918-1919 was not widely known; due to involvement in WW1, most countries weren't talking about it. In fact, that's why it's known as the Spanish flu; Spain wasn't in the war and was able to talk openly about it, even though it likely began in the US. For the first time, near-instant global communication has made us aware of the pandemic we're facing. This is largely unprecedented.

The one thing that amazes me about this song (as well as songs from the past), is that how it maintains its relevance over the years. Such songs are so iconic, that it does not need the status of achieving the number 1 song in the charts
The flipping through channels explanation actually put the song in context for me. The idea of going through news channels to only see all the terrible things in the world, then getting angry but feeling kind of powerless or detached. That’s a very universal thing I think
You're both right...things will never go back to "normal". Sure we will go back to work eventually n all that. But we'll be seeing and feeling the effects of this pandemic for a long time.
This is the first wave of this disease. This one hits the hardest, but it won't be the last wave. And it won't be the last pandemic disease, if we don't stop messing around with animals.
Even more of a bizarre coincidence though, is what Mike Mills sings in harmony while Stipe sings "It the end of the world as we know it..." Mills sings "It's time I had some time alone..."
You can be positive while still bearing in mind the at-times depressing truth of the world. The world can get better, and we have the power to do that.

Crazy thing was that March 13th was my last day in school for my sophomore year. Trying to finish your high school years during a pandemic while struggling mentally and then being thrown into a toxic relationship and trying to get out of said relationship. The hardest 2 years of my life but changed me for the best. REM is just a part of the soundtrack of those 2 years for me
I remember packing up my stuff to go home from the UK (Int. Student here) and this song started after I hit “shuffle”. My uni completely empty, halls abandoned, my room in chaos, amid packing up. I remember standing there, listening to this song and smoking. I thought, yeah I do indeed feel fine. I guess there is a chaotic, destructive and dark part of us that just loves hearing bad and alarming news. That part of us feels odd excitement when things go wrong.

i've always compared end of the world as we know it to we didn't start the fire biased on political lyrics no idea if it was an influence but in my mind it has similar structure too
I think that means there’s gonna be a massive change. “As we know it” means “as things are most days”, and I think that for most people the situation we’re in IS the end of the world as we know it.
When "We Didn't Start the Fire" first came out, it reminded me of this song! "End of the World" was released in 1987, "Fire" in 1989. (I looked up the dates to make sure I was remembering it right.)
Right on. As a GenXer I’ve always felt connected to Stipe’s lyrics even when I couldn’t always understand what he was saying. I did get to see them on the Green tour at LSU assembly center. Most impressive
Great episode. And yes, on curiositystream I've watched the Apocalypse WW1 documentary, it's pretty depressing stuff, graphic too at some points , wasn't quite expecting that, faces blown off..etc. but definitely interesting.
There’s something going on that’s not quite right!... There’s something going on that wasn’t here before, keep your eyes glued to the floor... loved REM... Michael’s nervous and the lights are bright, There’s something going on that’s not quite right!
The luxury of 30 years of history advancing and the march of technology is lyrics are easy to come by. I remember listening to this song over and over again trying to write down all the lyrics and then have to go look up any reference I didn’t get.

I've always thought this song was about growing up and being more aware of world happenings. You can't go back to being a child. This song could have done 100 years ago, or 100 years from now. It's all the same. Don't look to REM for answers, this was just an observational song about becoming more aware. It will happen to them again, as it will happen to all of us.
This song happened to start playing as I ordered a beer at a bar the last night before they all shut down near me. making that moment even better, before I walked in the door, the bartender yelled from the fence out back “welcome to the end of the world party!!”
So when I was small, my parents were doomsday preppers and big fans of R.E.M., and I grew up surrounded by their music and the abstract threat of apocalypse. This could simply be a side effect of my youth, but the past few years with climate emergencies, rising fascism, and now a plague, have been the first years I've actually felt like an apocalypse could happen. R.E.M.'s music is definitely a comfort in these trying times. Also, if you want something a bit more cheerful, I enjoy the work of Guillaume De Machaut, a 14th century composer who wrote a lot of music during the Black Death. His music is actually very cheerful, which I think is the perfect remedy to a depressing era.
I start listening to that song again a couple of weeks ago and was surprised how many people in the comment section were there listening to it because of covid-19 too. Also, I'm surprised that song is that old. I thought it came out in the mid-90s.
Now that the sun flares are being stronger, and our shield that is covering the earth is getting thinner, this is truly the theme song to 2022! So burn up humanity, because I won’t miss you. ☀️🔥
This really is great in times like these and helps coping with the stress of the pandemic. My roommates and I play it loud in the house at least once every other day. And by now most of us even nail it at karaoke😜
It tells that 'I feel fine' is that no matter what is daunting at the time, it doesn't matter, life goes on. So why worry about bs. I haven't watched more than an hour of the orchestra of the pandemic, and I haven't looked at a billboard chart in 30 years. Independent artists that never sign have more relevancy in my life than any mainstream artist does now days, whether they chart or not. The pandemic didn't affect me psychologically as much as it should have because I had risen above its meaning of despair.
My brother has been staying out in palm desert the last month. He said the last two days he’s heard bomb blasts, a rumble, and felt an earthquake after.

The capital building is in my neighborhood, and due to tensions between the US and North Korea at the time I was... terrified. Nobody took me seriously. My parents dismissed my anxieties. Everyone said I was being paranoid. Although the tensions have been more or less resolved, I look back, and don’t think I was.
Now, my entire family is in complete and utter panic mode about COVID-19. I know I should care more, but I just feel numb. They’re talking about it like it’s the end of the world, and I feel... fine.
