  • "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" is a song by the rock band R.E.M. , found on their 1987 album Document and the 1988 compilation Eponymous. It was also released as a single in 1988, reaching #69 US Billboard Hot 100 and later reaching #39 in the UK singles chart on its re-release in December 1991. The song originated from a previous, unreleased, R.E.M. song called "PSA"; the two songs are very similar in melody and tempo. "PSA" was itself later released as a single in 2003, under the title "Bad Day". In an interview with Guitar World magazine in the early 1990s, R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck indicated that one of the primary inspirations of "End of the World" was Bob Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues". The music video was directed by James Herbert, who worked with the band on several other videos in the late 1980s. It depicts a young skateboarder (Noah Ray) rifling through an abandoned, collapsing farmhouse and displaying the relics that he finds to the camera.
  • It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) ist ein Song der US-amerikanischen Rockband R.E.M. Der Titel wurde von R.E.M. im Jahr 1987 aufgenommen und auf dem Album Document veröffentlicht und ist auch als Single erschienen. Entstanden ist der Song aus einem Demo der Band namens Bad Day, welches im Jahr 2003 neu aufgenommen wurde, erst als Single herauskam und schließlich noch auf dem Album The Best of R.E.M. – In Time 1988–2003 erschien. Besonders auffällig an dem Song ist der Text, der in wahnwitziger und kaum zu verstehender Art von Sänger Michael Stipe gesungen wird. Dies verlieh dem Song in den Augen der Fans eine Art Partystimmung, auch wenn es von der Band so nicht beabsichtigt war. So dient It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) oft als „Rausschmeißer“ bei Konzerten von R.E.M. Im Text werden einige berühmte Persönlichkeiten mit den Initialen L. B. erwähnt. Das entstand laut Stipe aus einem Traum, in dem er als einziger bei einer Geburtstagsparty nicht die Initialen L. B. gehabt hatte. Das habe er in den Song gepackt, zusammen mit einigem anderen Zeug, das er beim Zappen im Fernsehen gesehen hatte. Das Lied wurde in einigen Filmen verwendet und eine abgewandelte Version des Songs fand in der Simpsons-Folge Homer the Moe Verwendung. Der Song selbst steht in der Tradition von Bob Dylans "Subterranean Homesick Blues". Seit 2005 wird der Titel regelmäßig im Abspann von Upps! Die Superpannenshow auf RTL eingesetzt. Der Song wurde für zwei Episoden der US-amerikanischen Erfolgsserie Serie Grey’s Anatomy als Titel verwendet; 2.16 „Code Black“ (It's The End of the World) und 2.17 „Der Letzte Tag“ Die kanadische Folk-Rockband Great Big Sea veröffentlichte auf ihrem Album "Play" ebenfalls eine Version dieses Liedes. Im Zuge der Terroranschläge vom 11. September 2001 wurde vom Radioverbund „Clear Channel Communications“ eine Liste mit 166 Liedern herausgegeben, mit der Empfehlung, diese vorerst nicht mehr zu senden. It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) befand sich darunter.
