Everybody Hurts


Hey guys! After reading our first text, we discussed the main idea and the message of it. Here I found a classic: REM's Everybody Hurts. I want you to watch it, understand the lyrics and tell me your opinion about it: What is it about? What's the message of this song? What's the relation between the reading passage and this song? I look forward to reading all of your comments! JMC.

  1. First this song is about advice for us of how we can see the life in other way. Second the message of the song is that life is full of good and bad times and the only thing we have to know is fight for what we want, and to learn to expect to achieve our happiness, but that "wait" do not mean "expect sitting", but be patient...!!

  2. It is a sad song and I think that people sometimes are sad but it is only a short time, after people get to stay better because we forgot everything bad in our lifes and we concentrate in the positive side......... By Cristhian R.

    1. You have to remember that in some cases is not easy to everbody moves on to their problems and sometimes they really need help. Also some people never give up and theey always remind theirselves to follow their goals and not fall at the first time. Katherine Pilaló

  3. This song is about we must be strong in this life. I think the message is that sometimes the life has many moments of pain. In spite of the adversities, we must be patient and fight for what we want at a steady pace and not succumb.

  4. I think that the message of this song is very important. Some people feel alone sometimes but, they are not alone. Are always people who love you. Such as your family and your friends.They never leave you alone and always are advising you. Sometimes some people commit suicide because, they feel bad.They think that their life is bad but, that is no true. The life is beautiful and short so, live the life.

    1. I think the song has an extremely especial message.The song expresses that everyone has problems, but we can overcome them, the decision depends on ourselves
      The way in which each person faces their situations shows that kind of person is.
      You are the MASTER of your life...

    1. That's right... everybody has problems! We could see that on the text we read. However, they were strong enough to overcome this situation and find the positive side of it.

  7. In my oppinion, this song has a very important message about how to find support when you feel. This song say that when you feel alone you can find a friend and that is true because a friend can help you and give you their affect. It is true that everybody have problems but you just have to hold on, because at some point of the life the problems will disappear.

    2. I partly agree, we must not only take refuge in our friends. the song talks about what happens to us in everyday life, that somehow or other we have to resolve, not with death.

  8. In my opinion I think that the main idea of this song is very beautiful and is the truth.Life can be hard , very hard but, that is life.We learn from the bad things that happend to us and that make us grow up as a person.The important is that when bad things happend to us never had to give up.We need to continue , we need to fight for what we want, because nothing is easy to get , and always remember the problems are not forever.

  9. Personally I think that this song treats about the human's loneliness,when sometimes the human feels alone without anybody who can comfort him and walk through this life ,he can not give up, and always there is an exit to the sadness,The life use those situations to make us better persons and stronger and courageus.

  10. In my opinion, this song is about people so depressed who feel that their life is worthless and they do not realize that there are people who love them and want to help them. I think the message of this song is that the depression may have occurred by failing in something, but you should realize that failure is part of success and not ¨the end of the world ¨. In addition, you will always find good people that can help you to go forward.

  11. Personally, I think that this song try to give a message very importan to each person that is sad. in spite of that we have a bad day , and I say "We" because late or early , each one of us sometime have a problem although it will could not have a solution , that is why I think, that this song try to say that we must not give up and we have to be strong and think that we are not alone in this world, we have friends, maybe a girlfriend or the most important, we have a family that will help us move forward , and like said a philosopher "True happiness is not the one without problems, but who knows how to overcome them. "

  12. Personally, I think this song is dedicated for those people that feel they have failed everytime and there is not forgiveness for them, for those people who think their life ends with a failure, but no! Life goes on! We have to learn from those mistakes because they are proof that we can do more! We always have to aim to victory. It is true that we can fail, because we are humans, but that does not mean that we have to give up so quickly. We must fight against our weaknesses and show the world that we can get what we want if we fight for it.

    1. Right! But even more important than showing the world, we must show OURSELVES that we can achieve our goals.

    2. I agree with your opinion Alfonso, and with your opinion teacher too. You said that we must show ourselves that we can achieve our goals and that's right.
      I have a opinion for this song, I think that this song is telling us not from hurting people, which is the main theme and that is true because when you go you're hurting more people you are being alone on the day and at night too.
      We must try not to continue hurting people, it's bad for everybody and it's bad for ourselves too.

  13. For me, the message of this song is very important because it makes us reflexionate about our life, and when we have bad moments, we want to die, but it is not the solution of that. Sometimes, we make mistakes, and that is normal because we are humans, and no one is perfect in the world, only god is perfect, so we must leave our problems back and continue living becuase we have a lot to live yet. We should hold on our problems, continue with our life, and do our best every day, to overcome our problems, to be better.

    1. Personally, this song is one of the saddest that I've heard. However, the message of this song is interesting in order to people feel depressed. Likewise, It shows we have to be strong in our life, and thought that everyone has moments in life where they feel they want to give up, but hang on, It will get better.

    2. In my opinion this song shows you that only conformist people surrendered at first obstacles. However, wise and true fighters know how to overcome these problems and know that if you keep trying you could obtain an excellent result.

  15. Be alive is something wonderful but not everything is rosy as it seems, that's the message of this song, it make us to reflect, be alive means that we have to fight, not to be perfect because we are not, so we can fight to adapt the world with a positive vision, where this takes time for it to happen, that one day you began to build. So, 'wait' deserves a reward, and in the same way that 'wait' must have a purpose for our wellness and the others. However, impatient people never reach to see the result of long and arduous work, that they have done for a long time. we can't said that we are alone since we always been accompanied by the blessing of God, and for that reason besides our families, we also have our friends, who always give us their unconditional support.

  16. This song is about the difficulty moments that a person can has in a relationship. In this world not all is pain, there are a little of love. The song says that everybody cries but you are not alone because you always are with God, your family and friends. Remember sadness is fleeting, nothing lasts forever.

  17. We should know that despite many things , troubles or worries that we usually have we can not forget that have someone very important in our lifes, his name is God .He never will leave us alone and less in our difficult moments.
    Also we does not have to forget that if we can dream ,we can do it ,but for reach our goal we have to fight for it.
    This song is sad we can say that the singer suffered , and thought that he was alone and forgot to never give up.

  18. In my opinion, this song is about when people feel alone and have a lot of problems. The message that this song gives us is that we must stop thinking that only bad things happen to us because everyone at anytime in our live we have to face problems and we just have to calm down and try to find a solution to these.

    1. Exactly! Problems happen everyday... we need to look for a solution and stop crying over the spilled milk.

  19. Personally, I think that REM in this song tries to mean that people always will have problems, and no matter the size of it, they are made to help us to grow up like human beings. And people voluntary or involuntary will helps us or will make us to cry. Finally, in sum, you have to forget the problems, you have to defeated them and search your own road.

  20. Personally. I think that this is a sad song because it is about when someone feel alone, they have problems or they don´t have someone to talk about. But we don´t have to think that we are the only that have problems.There are so many people with more problems than ours, Those cases we should be calm and try to solve ours problems. We never are alone because, have friends and family.

  21. This song is an exact message for one who feel so tired about his life´s problems. People needs to have some problems because in that way they learn, they grow up, they become mature and their point of view about life change a lot. People must cry if they want to apreciate and understand real smiles, they need to fail if they want to learn how to fight. Problems teach everyone to be determinate. As the song´s lyrics, they need to hold on, nothing is forever, specially problems that are just life´s obstacles that teach people how to live in different ways. But that life always continues in a million of different days full of surprises.

  22. This song really came to me very deep!! I think when you have problems, must not despair. Everything comes and goes in life but we must learn to accept the situations that God brings to our way. All us in any point of life have rejected the life or our luck or any problem that we had in the way, but, we never stopped to think about people who really suffer worse situations than us. As the song says "well hang on". The night is always darkest just before the sun rises.

    1. I agree with you in some parts, in others I don’t think the same. But that you say is true because there are some people that are passing more bad things than we and they are fighting not for anything, they are fighting for their life. Sometimes it is correct but not always. The people can choose if they want to steal living or dead.

  23. In my opinion, I think that the message of this song is really true. If you have many problems in your life, don't give up. Looking comfort in your friends is a good idea but sometimes, you just need to trust in God. He will resolve your problems. You should never lose the faith on him. You can achieve your dreams If you learn to cope difficult situations.

  24. The song's message.
    Personally, I think the message is suggestions or advice on how to handle life in many ways. Second, be cautious, careful and patient in order to be able to wait for the purposes that the life would give us, no matter the bad times that fate gives us.

  27. In my opinion, the singer (REM) dedicated this song to friend that he was passing for a difficulty and the message of the song is that you never give up the fight without matter the obstacles and your truly friends will ever be with you in the bad and the good.

In my opinion, this song have only one true message that is all people suffer because of problems or situations where we don’t know what to do but when it happens the best thing is not to lose the hope and wait for a better time because we can overcome them and the decision depends on ourselves

  32. In my opinion this song is very strong in some parts but it have an excellent message because hissing shows you that it's better to face your problems and avoid them instead of start crying and asking yourself why this happen to you, in my opinion problemsmake you better in the future because it makes you more mature and you know what you are not allow to do.
