A friend of me has just told me that Morrissey's sung a R.E.M. song once. He's read it on a Brazilian magazine called Bizz in 90's/.
Did it really happen?
 
Re:

Nope.

I think your friend mixed up with someone else.

If Morrissey actually sung a REM song, it would have been listed in live history (and lyrics section)of passionsjustlikemine.com.

However, passions does not mention about Industrial schools by Damien Dempsey which Morrissey sung in a cappella just few verses before Irish Blood, English Heart at Dublin June 2008.

Both REM and Morrissey have sung 'Moon River'. Maybe that's the source of confusion.

When he told me about it the first thing I did was to check Passions but I didn't find anything there...
As the mag mentions Morrissey sang it a capella before the last song of the gig... and it was on US leg of Kill Uncle tour.

Thanks for your help
 
There was a rumour of a duet (Moz/Stipe) in the early nineties, maybe Found Found Found, that could be the source of confusion.
