As you may remember, a few weeks ago we posted a teaser snippet of Mike Mills’s interview with Streetdate Radio. And today they have posted all video clips of our hero Mike discussing everything and anything, from the compulsory praise of the band’s new album Collapse Into Now to various anecdotes from R.E.M.’s studio stints. Alas the embed links are not working at the moment, but I’ve made these clickable links that will lead you directly to these clips, so enjoy!

My pleasure girl! That’s the power of Internet, we’re not even aware that what we do here is actually seen and read by people.
I like to think that we’re contributing towards the imminent success of Collapse Into Now.

I second that! (Well, more like “I third that”
)
Team MMT rulezzzz!!
They even put an excerpt of my translation into the article!

This such a huge honor!!
Yup, it’s amazing what can happen on the internet, everything is possible…
(or maybe they just googled it
)
But then, Murmurs is quite an authority when it comes to infos concerning REM. Wow, the editors of big newspapers actually sift through the threads there
