In honor of David Byrne's birthday - post your favorite Talking Heads video

[LynneSin]

I Talking Heads but damnit - why can't they do just one more tour!!!

Here is my favorite!

And a close second is this song (done just a few years ago by Byrne)

[Arugula Latte]

1. This one: Once in a Lifetime

Can't post video directly, but it is in the link.

[Raine1967]

9. Mine as well. I love the video and the song. :)

I actually used it in a blog post I wrote the other day… http://www.fourfreedomsblog.com/Blog.php?Act=ViewBlogPost&BlogID=2802

I know it maybe TL;DR for some, but it was very cathartic to write. IT fell good to get it out and realize how I actually came to be a liberal!

2. "Take Me To The River"

One of the best covers of a tune I know. The Heads took this tune and made it their own. Great live version here.

8. Naive Melody (This Must Be The Place)

[hibbing]

11. I can't tell one from another

12. I like your first pic - my fave too. n/t

[melman]

13. The Great Curve - Rome '80

[sendero]

14. I'm a big fan also...

.. but I prefer the Eno period, More Songs..., Fear of Music, and their crowning achievement Remain in Light, to the later stuff.

In fact, after Speaking in Tongues where the Eno had not yet worn off, it goes downhill fast. Naked was embarrasing!

All just my humble opinion of course!

I'm linking the studio version of Houses in Motion, the various live versions really don't capture the brilliance IMHO...

18. "I'm so thin..."
