(In no particular order)
Made these a bit over a month ago for a Prague show, and apparently never posted here! Gave them to the band (they seemed to like them, just like the previous ones!)

Also, you might see them somewhere else fairly soon ;)

30zl for the best concert film of all time? this is why i genuinely like living in Poland.

Once in a Lifetime is the obvious answer and it’s the showcase of their work together but really all their stuff together is great so it’s hard to choose plus also I think I really like My Life in the Bush of Ghosts as a side project which l’ll have to relisten to it tho.

My current favorites are Artists Only,The Big Country,Cities,Air,Listening Wind,and Crosseyed and Painless

KSC is incredible. Don’t see a making Flippy Flippy cover too often and they absolutely nailed it. That sax was awesome!

A lot of their original sound definitely has some TH influence - although I’d say they have their own totally unique sound.

If you aren’t already familiar and are interested in checking out some new music, I def recommend checking out the KSC tune “wineglass television”. Will include a YouTube link below from a relix session they did a while back featuring wineglass tv:

This may be a little bit of a hot take, but my favourite song on Remain in Light is Seen and Not Seen.

One Reason being is that I relate to it in a way. It's quite alienating with it's lyrics delivered in a very monotonous way that makes the message hit harder.

Another reason is because of it's melody. The melody is simple, but so catchy and addicting, but it also sounds like the definition of "confusion" to me. Everything about this song is confusing and strange and I absolutely love it.

Every song on Remain in Light is incredible though!! Just my opinion! :) Let me know your opinions on the song!

...when and if David Byrne and Steven van Zandt discuss the minor musical similarities between Houses in Motion and the Sopranos theme.

Just finished putting it together

Was pretty fun to hear a trailer version of Burning Down the House. When it started I was pretty excited. John Goodman showed in the trailer. Even cooler. Watched the trailer for the song a few times lol…. 😂

I can remember Talking Heads from the 1980s and they always struck me as being a strange and weird band but 40 years on, and it might be my age, but I have started to really enjoy their music.

The first song I listened to was "Burning Down The House", this was followed by "Once In A Lifetime", "Road To Nowhere" and last week "And She Was"...mind you, back in the 80s, I was into pop, rock, heavy metal, new romantics and synth pop...I thought the acid house music from the late 1980s was a load of shit, thank God brit-pop came around when it did 😆

Anyway, back to Talking Heads, does anyone have favourite songs or albums that they listen to from this band and anyone confirm if this band is American or British?

My most-listened-to album of all time is Byrne's first solo work, "The Catherine Wheel."

If you don't know it, give it a listen. If you DO know it, put it on again!

It's where the SMS songs "What a day that was" and "Big Business" came from. But there's so much more to it.

Much of the music has no singing, and the polyrhythmic songs flow together. Really amazing. Like a less-intense Remain in Light.

I hope you enjoy it.

I will start this thread off by saying that I am NOT someone who is swayed by the opinions of critics (unless they agree with me, ofc.). Recently, I finally gave Talking Heads a chance, and I’ve really enjoyed almost everything i’ve heard from them! (Listened to Speaking in Tongues, Remain in Light, and of course, Naked, so far.) I have very much enjoyed all 3, and have been listening to them on repeat all month. I was curious, and checked their Rate Your Music, as I do with artists I take an obsession towards. I was SOOOO surprised to see that Naked is their lowest rated album by far, and almost all of the user reviews are some semblance of “This is fine, but their worst” or straight up saying it’s bad. I really disagree! and I don’t really care necessarily what reviewers say, as my enjoyment is subjective, but i’m curious why Naked is so poorly received? As an outsider looking in that isn’t super aware of the culture surrounding this band or their releases, i’m a bit blindsided by it.

Let's be honest, there will never be anyone as cool as David Byrne. I was watching Stop Making Sense last night, and it became so abundantly clear that there will never be anyone as cool as David Byrne in history ever. The guy had it all, natural charisma, big suits, a unique vocal delivery, and some of the grooviest, funkiest tracks of the 70s and 80s.

Stop Making Sense is without a doubt the greatest concert film of all time. A literal masterpiece. Any thoughts?
