Blasted youtube... R.E.M. content http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FjSchBoch0

That was the pnly REM song I ever cared for.

I believe the redhead is Kate Pearson from the B-52s...(sigh)

Kate can really sing, not like the "Performers" that were on last night for New Years Eve....

I forgot that she was thin and he had hair.

Yeah, in the '80's Kate Pierson and Deborah Harry populated many of my fantasies.

Oops... is this thing on?

That was the song that signaled "the end" of the good REM.

The albums up to that were fantastic

Chronic town, murmur, fables of the reconstruction, lifes rich pageant. All "must listens"

yes it is on 11 hahahaha

Just as a total aside: Kate Pierson and her partner (Kate being a lesbitarian) own a kooky, kitschy retro cabin/trailer motel in the Catskills...

Funny, just saw that video last night on Beavis and Butthead and thought about the filter on this site.

Was never a big REM fan. Last time I even cared about them was Green and even then, I think I saw them live because a bunch of my friends were going.

As for Kate Pierson, I dug this collaboration

Thanks, Gamby - that's a great collaboration I'd forgotten! Never was a big fan of either of Iggy or REM on a collective basis, but both have their moments.

And let's raise a glass to awesome gingers, even when they ignore mere men.

Cheers. Yeah, she looked fantastic back then (20+ years ago ) I always loved the almost countryish vibe she gave in that vocal performance.

Gingers FTW. That is all.

52 girls was always my favorite B52's track. Love the wierd vocal interplay between Kate and Cindy. Dissonant and harmonious.

If the pic on her lazy meadow website's any indication, Pierson still has got it. Not bad looking at all
