Well, no. But while this is a fun song, a better singer would vastly improve it. 

I used to love the TH. But I get tired of David Byrnes as Yodeling World Music Tourist.

David Byrne never was worth a crap.  He had one hit with Talking Heads and if you listen to it, everything is great except the vocals.

It's like a Jimmy Buffet song...from one of his crappy, recent albums.

I can find my way to the mute key, right enough. It's fitting that this album should be named "Uh oh" because to me yer man Byrne sounds like a Teletubby. An automute (and I don't even wear a starched shirt).

Oh, wait - lemme guess. You have a starched white shirt, pressed pants, and no sense of humor. And I really hope you're not in a cubicle, too. Gee - kinda sorry for you, but I just KNOW there's an Iggy Pop in you somewhere.

I'm teasing. Not all of David Byrne's stuff is easy on the ears, but it almost always demands to be heard. Your single-mindedness regarding Byrne is intriguing. 'Scuse me while I go see what you think is worthy of airplay...{#Mrgreen}

I'm thinking "all right".  Anything Byrne-related is guaranteed to bring out the cranks.  So glad that BillG ignores y'all.

I guess I'm one of the few wierdos on here that actually likes David Byrne/Talking Heads, B-52's, et al sound. I can deal with that. I like the hook on this one.

Mr. Byrne has been running on the monotony treadmill for quite a while now. It would sure be nice to hear him deviate from the familiar, once and a while.

Perhaps Bill, you might play anything off of "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts" that he did with Eno. Fantastic album!

Maybe Radio Paradise should change its name to "All David Byrne and Talking Heads - All the Time!"

I love you guys but MAN! David Byrne should own stock in Radio Paradise!
