If there's any band overrepresented on RP, it must be Talking Heads.

I can see your expression when you hear the talking heads...

I confess to not understanding why so many listeners dislike this artist and specifically this song. It touches on a subject, or subjects, that rarely get discussed, let alone sung about. Oh well, if you don't like, you don't. Oddly, it touches me emotionally and intellectually.

This song seems rather melancholy to me.

David is a god. Not as good as the stuff from 1977 and near but his voice jumps out at you 30+ years later.

Still an okay song, though.
i agree.. i have most heads albums but not this one. i'd expect this tune to be on the corporate album (little creatures).. |

Now I know why Talking Heads' music irritates me most of the time: David Byrne has the young, male equivalent to the quavering voice of the old lady who always sang in the congregation when you were a kid and were forced to go to church!

For many of us, those dreams are starting to crumble. Still, this is a cool song.  |

Music isn't music without TH/DB. Amazing how little middle ground there is on that subject on RP. It's almost like red state/blue state. Assuming DB would be blue (he gets around by bicycle for instance), I will just say, "Blue Rules." He's a genius and that was a great band. The movie True Stories is really funny, too—the fashion show at the mall has to be seen.

Certainly I love this song....but DB's "Dirty Old Town" would *really* bring Moe's super-lite "New York City" (just played) down to earth.  |
