Saw them a Lolla in '06 and they brought the house down. Frank Oral of Poi Dog Pondering covered the vocals for this one. I remember him doing laps around the stage . . . Saw them at the Aragon in Uptown and was blown away again. See this act live—they put on quite a party! |

Of course, I saw TH for the first time in 1977 and own all their albums.... so I guess I wouldn't get it.
Me, neither. Me, too. I saw them in Hampton Beach, NH, probably in '77. It's a treat to hear DB's distinctive voice with Thievery Corporation. |

Always amused to see the polarizing effect DB has on the RP audience. I like him and Thievery personally,

If you mean you don't want this particular song played anymore, I'm going to have to go ahead and respectfully disagree with you. Digging this. |

When these guys are good, they are very, very good. At times, I find them a bit nice-ho-pleasant-hum, but not here. If this is just a 7, I gotta hear the rest of the set. |

OK, David is a genious and all, but I am suffering from David Byrne/Talking Heads overload now. Somebody didn't massage the music log.

my old man and i agree on most music, but he really likes talking heads and i can't dig em at all. this is a good tune though. i wonder if he knows about this tune, as it is the first time i've heard it. good one!

Quite possibly the first tolerable song I've heard David Byrne participate in.

Honestly, I thought that the vocals sounded more like Cy Curnin of The Fixx.

Normally I'm not a fan of Byrne but he is actually pretty good, here.

If you like this song, you should check out the radio three-sixty podcast ( (click here), also on iTunes). Thats where I first heard this song, and they play a lot of eclectic music like this. There's about 40 episodes now, they're all pretty good but I prefer the earlier ones. |

Not my favourite Thievery tune, but it does feature David Byrne. Wait -- that may be what I don't like about it...hmmm....
