Who gives a shlt about tibet? It’s another totally WORTHLESS third world shlthole. I’m going out today and buy shltloads of chinese made goods. Go have your shltty concerts and pat yourselves on the back to make yourselves feel worthwhile. NONE of the money raised will go to helping tibet anyway. Fvcking sheep! Oh , almost forgot…michael stipe is a washed up has been.

Pre-Chinese Tibet (pre-1959) was far worse than PRC Tibet. If you want to “free Tibet” than what you want is to enable the monks to bring back feudalist serfdom and a free labor system. Morons.

Peace is
Peace
is Peace

Referring to Nils Peter | 3/4/2007, 6:30 pm EST comments, no, my friend, it seems America either starts more wars or is instrumental in creating more wars than all religions put together! Think about it!

The Tibetan government is democratically elected, the Dalai Lama has stated he wants a complete seperation of church and state and the exiled government is moving toward that. We Tibetans have for over 50 years suffered the Chinese occupation of our land and in broad terms restrained ourselves due to the leadership of the Dalai Lama. The fact the Chinese would rather believe PRC propaganda then look at the plain as day light truth shatters my faith in humanity.

Religions are the begining of wars. It have always being.

For those who posted slander towards Tibet-it is pretty clear to me that they don’t know what or who they are denouncing.
“Give light, and the darkness will disappear” [Buddhist saying]
In other words, wisdom trumps ignorance.
Spewing obscenities and exhibiting contempt for problems of Tibet just about equates to supporting cultural and human genocide.
May all be happy and well- [the central wish from all Buddhists] and Nameste.

It’s incredible that for some people any excuse is good to abuse other people and seethe with hatred. How sad.

Dalai Lama is a Tibetan, he knows Tibet and its culture. We should support him.

Debbie Harry rocked out at CARNEGIE HALL, she was the highlight of the night. Support Tibet against it’s cruel invaders, do not buy products from them.

The issue of Tibet just shows the westerners’ ignorance and shortsight. A lot of people were misled by the media.

Dalai Lama uses their sympathy and political intentions. I think what Dailai wants is get back to Tibet and controls people’s mind there.

That isn’t not freedom, not democracy, just another kind of dictatorship, you know?

Why not come over here to see what happens around?

I’m a Chinese, yeah, I love American culture. But I have to admit when I saw the unjust unjust articles on RS, it was really hurtful & angry.

Hey nice try buddy, you know jahn
was putting you on. You knew that
didn’t you?
Not nice Jahn.

Hello Jahn. What is yer blogg? If you have more information please comunitcate to me. My favorite tunes is from Arcade Fire. I know alot about Bon Jovi and Beatels to (from my Childhood). NICE!

Perhaps NF didn’t do her homework,
but why all the anger? Oh, I know,
perhaps we all wish we were writers for RS, and this anger is
really jealousy. I think these immature comments speak more to
a lack civility through perceived
internet anoymity. Simple message to all of the hate peddlers out there.
You need to grow-up. You know who I mean: Muslum hater, all religion is crap, Satan god master(whatever)
Kudos to “nice try” & “NYC Nate”.
love, peace & caring

“Everybody need to be cooool! This is toooo crazy! Why eveybody gotta be so crazy (or like I say “Insane in da Membrame”). OKAY? Niocle made nice article and you use as excuse to be nasty on internets! Why you gotta do like that? GIVE ME A BREAK! ”

Nice try buddy,

I would like to offer you a job as a blog writer, we need someone on this staff with such a profound grasp of the english language

Everybody need to be cooool! This is toooo crazy! Why eveybody gotta be so crazy (or like I say “Insane in da Membrame”). OKAY? Niocle made nice article and you use as excuse to be nasty on internets! Why you gotta do like that? GIVE ME A BREAK!

Oh, yeah. Let’s allow, arguably, the only peaceful people on this planet die at the hands of the Red Chinks. Good idea, crotch-snorklers.

Also, Muslim Hater. - the Tibetans are Buddhists, you fvcking 27 chromosome having retard!

Hey, Muslim Hater - Tibet isn’t Muslim, it’s Buddhist. And you are a shit head.
And “People Have The Power” is quite possibly the worst song ever written.
” . . . rescue Earth from fools!”
Even my man Muslim Hater has enough sense to know that’s stupid.

Let Tibet burn.

Thank you.

Fuck Tibet. Why don’t these artists focus their attention on our countries problems first? These fuckers are as confused as PETA. Why are they so interested in preserving another cultures religion when at the same time they want to destroy religion in America?

michael stipe is god. i swear to god he is.

Was Thirty Seconds To Mars there? I saw them in a video where they go to Red China and seemed to have a good time. I don’t Michael Stipe approves of that.

“What Mike said, and what Nicole meant was that “chorus
and the ring” has never been
preformed live. What’s with all
the hostility? You must be lots
of fun to be around. Two words:
grow up.
Love, peace & caring.”

If this was true, why did she use the word “unveiled” and “a never-been-played tune”

I agree with the below comment, RS you really do need to do your homework, it seems that these posts for the most part are very half assed.

FREE TIBET!!! RIGHT ON!!! shame on the previous posters.

What Mike said, and what Nicole meant was that “chorus
and the ring” has never been

Does anyone know if there is a recording of Patti Smith’s cover of “Sweet Dreams” without the Mickey & Mallory voice overs? I love that song, but I don’t want to think of Natural Born Killers every time I hear it.

You lost me at Ben Harper.

Do you honestly think anyone in China will even hear about this or gives a shit about Tibet?

Perhaps Nicole meant that it has never been played live before perhaps? I don’t know.

I don’t know anything about REM, but I have a feeling Rolling Stone probably meant “never been played” to mean “never been played live”, not “never ever been played ever”. So you can still love Rolling Stone.

Tibetan Buddhism is at risk of being totally fucked, an entire religion! It is good to see someone doing something about it.

Like Other Dan said, The Chorus and the Ring is song number 10 on Reveal, released in 2001. I love you RS but do your homework.

Tibet is the jam. Didn’t anyone read the article in the last issue about it?

It’s a shame how ignorant people can be. If you want to be immature pricks, do it somewhere else.

F*CK TIBET!

I agree…f*ck Tibet,let em rot.

WHY HELP ANYONE?PEOPLE SUCK & WOULD SLIT YR FVCKING THROAT GIVIN A CHANCE!

FVCK TIBET!

Chorus and the Ring is on an REM album.
