Hi all! If any of you like to play along with the REM track (after learning the song via this tutorial) I thought I'd give you a heads up that they just released their 1991/2001 Unplugged sets. The 2001 version of "Religion" is just performed with the vocals, the mandolin and one acoustic guitar SO you can really hear the mandolin part very, very well. I listen to it wearing stereo headsets and play along and I'm not afraid to admit, it's a really cool experience to do it that way!
Hey CSIMelissa, many thanks for this heads up. I have been hoping for this release for a good while...
This is the tutorial that got me hooked on the Mandolin!
Outstanding job, very easy to understand!
thanks for checking this out...very appreciated!
Thread has been on here a good while so thought i'd bump to see if any news MC folks might want to check it out!
Hi there mandolin players
the middle and that little lick in the middle and the chords throughout the song no problem, just need to work on the sound of it. The beginning solo bit also needs some doing. Thanks for the video. I will see what I can learn.
Sure appreciate you checking this out...hope you can find something you can use.
thanks for checking it out!
Hi. I also love your tutorial. Another person just learning and really appreciate it. Wondered if you could help with a couple of things:
- I haven't managed to find the full run through video you mention.
- I'm OK on the chords, but finding strumming patterns tricky. Any way of explaining your strumming pattern in the tutorial?
Thanks again. It's awesome.
sorry this was difficult to find! Here's a link to me playing the entire song - thanks so much for checking this out, dale.

When I showed up to the first Christmas concert practice the electric guitar player said:
"Whoa, cool! A mandolin! Let's jam on Losing My Religion."
I laughed, played a note or two.... and we moved on. Mostly because I never learned it well enough to even "jam" on it.
I went home, looked your tutorial up and showed up the next week jammin'.
Thanks!
Great tutorial here, Dale. I'm just another one of your 36K YT subscribers - found your Black Water tutorial a few years back and it's awesome.
