R.E.M. POST TWO VIDEOS FOR BRAND-NEW SONG “WE ALL GO BACK TO WHERE WE BELONG”
Both black and white films for “We All Go Back To Where We Belong” capture their subjects in stark relief using a strong key light and shot with a stationary camera, an effect that Stipe describes as lending “gravity and beauty” to the proceedings.
These videos arrive on the heels of last years’ successful Collapse Into Now Film Project, which featured films by artists for every song on the album. Stipe said of the new project, “To be able to work with John and Kirsten was a dream I carried since we recorded the song, and their participation completes the song for me.”
“We All Go Back To Where We Belong,” which Rolling Stone recently premiered, is one of three new tracks to be included on R.E.M.’s upcoming final album R.E.M., Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage, 1982 – 2011 – a 40-song career-spanning retrospective that collects, for the first time ever, songs from pioneering American band’s entire 31-year career, including their years on both the IRS label (1982 to 1987) and Warner Bros. Records (1988 to 2011). The collection will be released on Warner Bros. Records on November 15th, 2011 and is currently available for pre-order on iTunes here and Amazon here.
