I never even owned this on vinyl.
REM’s Michael Stipe lashes out like he hasn’t since the mid ’80s:
The GOP presidential candidate took to the podium Wednesday on the steps of Capitol Hill to slam President Barack Obama’s proposed Iran nuclear deal. His walk-up music? R.E.M.’s 1987 hit “It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine).”
Rival candidate Sen. Ted Cruz, whom Trump acknowledged having a political “romance” with, was the one who invited Trump to speak at the rally.
R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe was livid after the use of his band’s song at the event.
“Go f*ck yourselves, the lot of you — you sad, attention-grabbing, power-hungry little men,” Stipe said in an email to The Daily Beast. “Do not use our music or my voice for your moronic charade of a campaign.”
Don’t you just love it when the mask slips and the Left reveals its true face?
