Lead singer of REM. And I'm quite sure he's being sarcastic. They aren't ego-maniacs.

R.E.M. have been around for ~30 years -- Stipe is probably being sarcastic when he said this, but they are superstars

As another posted. Lead singer of REM and they are far from arrogant. Been around long enough that he has proven himself to be a great talent and can say whatever he wants.

I am sure this was said either sarcasticly or with a laugh of unbelief. REM is an "international phenomenon" like them or not they have been around for decades and have more than established that, they have proven it.

OMG, I feel ancient. People really don't know REM? I think this quote is also taken out of context. REM was never the "full of themselves" kind. It would hurt my heart if that was real
