R.E.M.

In June 1999, R.E.M. performed "Crush With Eyeliner" live at the Glastonbury Festival, showcasing their established status in the alternative rock scene. This performance came shortly after the release of their highly successful album "Up" in October 1998, marking a significant moment in their career as they experimented with a more electronic sound and introspective lyrics. "Crush With Eyeliner," a standout track from "Monster" (1994), highlights the band's transition from the previous album's sonic explorations to a unique stage presence characterized by vibrant performance energy. Glastonbury 1999 is noted for R.E.M.'s headlining act, affirming their influential role in the music industry during the late '90s. The performance exemplifies their ability to blend thoughtful artistry with live enthusiasm, a hallmark that has kept them relevant across decades.
