Fall On Me 22:08 ‘Succumbs’ is R.E.M.'s first commercially available full-length movie. Released in October 1987 on UNI/A&M, it contains video footage shot by R.E.M.'s lead singer Michael Stipe dating back to the early-1980s, while the band was still recording under the I.R.S. Records label. Stipe collaborated with local Athens, Georgia artist James Herbert. It offers a glimpse of the unique feel of the band before their commercial success. It was released only on VHS & laserdisc, however, all the videos contained in this package are included on the When the Light Is Mine DVD, released in September 2006. An introductory clip at the beginning of the collection features guitarist Peter Buck and the band's then-manager, Jefferson Holt, introducing "citizens of the future" to an "outmoded artform" called the "video", predicting it would have a staying power similar to that of Nehru jackets and other forgotten fads. #rem #1987 #succumbs #parttwo #musicvideo
