Funny. I've loved the Heads since Fear was released. I think this album is one of their best efforts.

But like me mum said: That's what makes for horse racing.

I agree 100%. i am starting to believe the other posters when they say RP plays too much THs, and I am a fan of them. Most of this CD is weak and should be avoided.

I was going to say the exact opposite.

Very weak effort by them - I much prefer their other material and I don't mean just the commercially successful stuff.

Baba? That's a fine little tune and she had the smarts - like a lot of other modestly-talented stars - to hire the best backup band that she could afford. See also: Sting.

BTW, it's spelled "whose" in that usage.

They released True Stories and Naked after this, and while True Stories was at best a modest improvement, Naked was a real return to form.

But yes, this was a disappointment, and "Television Man" was surely one of the least interesting tracks on this record.

I totally agree...

A lousy album and flat song from a band that provided much better and exciting work before this last offering.

Yeah especially compared to Allanis Morissette who's music you rate a 10. *giggle*

The most over-rated band in rock history - and that's saying something.

Why the whining guy david byrne it's a MUST in RP .... arghhhh

Come to the conclusion the only Talking Heads song I enjoy is the song about the parking lot. The paradise song.

the call and response really bugs.

I don't know, I think this is a pretty solid track. Maybe it doesn't have the artsy cache of their first 4 albums, and sure it sounds polished, but this is still great music.
Everyone (including me) tends to judge new artists against the rest of the pack, whereas established acts get the extra scrutinty of comparisions to their best work. But sometimes this unfairly diminishes above-average music.
Just relax and enjoy!

As a man who really enjoys Rush, I understand just how wacked out it is to criticize the sound of any band's singer...

But there's something just snotty enough in David Byrne's voice that makes me want to slap that stupid grin off his face...

Yeah, I see what you mean. The band went from artsy to poppy. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing - David Byrne sure sounded like he was having a blast recording Little Creatures.

If RP would EVER play something from the first two albums you might understand how great they were - this song shows how they lost their ideas and energy toward the end.

I love all things Byrne. It takes every kinda' people, no?!

It's funny...I keep hearing people say what a genius David Byrne is. But whenever I hear him, I always hear an ADHD kid on Mountain Dew who keeps making annoying, incessant vocalizations for attention.

Just my opinion....

too much d byrne on RP

Now THAT tune is absolutely GODLIKE... this one only a 9 unfortunately

I don't know. My brain is wired for talking heads. I don't hear it played anywhere else. Depending upon my mood, it can be a background music or something to party with.
