Arcade Fire Cover R.E.M. and Tease We Exist Video

05/06/2014
. (Radio.com) No strangers to throwing covers in their set, Arcade Fire put their own spin on R.E.M.'s "Radio Free Europe" at their Friday night (May 2) gig in Georgia. This continues the band's location-specific covers as R.E.M.'s home state is Georgia.

Previous covers throughout the band's 2014 tour include Prince, Stevie Wonder, Boys II Men and Blondie. Last month, Arcade Fire announced "We Exist" as their next single, which according to frontman Win Butler is about "a gay kid talking to his dad" about equality.

The band released a teaser for the clip, which was shot at Coachella and features Spider-Man star Andrew Garfield, during this past Saturday's episode of Saturday Night Live, hosted by Garfield.

Check out the clip here.
