R.E.M. – “Losing My Religion” – 1991 – Tarsem Singh – 4 Million Copies Sold
“Losing My Religion” is R.E.M.’s iconic opening track from their 1991 album “Out of Time.” Before its music video made headwinds on VH1, the audio track had already enjoyed extensive airplay on the radio. This was the first time someone other than the band’s frontman Michael Stipe or his artistic compatriots had directed their videos as Tarsem Singh stepped in to work his magic behind the camera.
The video opens with a brief recreation of Andrei Tarkovsky’s “The Sacrifice” and ererily features the band members in a small dark room. R.E.M marked 25 years of “New Adventures” in 2021 with a Hi-Fi anniversary edition of their ’90s album.
