Talking Heads

[Rongi]

sorry milhouse for being all jerk like about this band lol :(

fear of music is great. i really like mind and i zimbra is a silly song and drugs is really funky.

[Helm]

remain in light

[Rongi]

i'm listiening to that right now

talking heads are probably the best new wave band ever

[sadie]

i love singing "take me to the river."

[SirGodzilla]

They're concert video for Stop Making Sense is incredible. Probably the best concert video I've ever seen.

[Dole]

I fucking love Talking Heads. Was completly nuts about them all through my teenage years. And stop making sense is the best concert video ever made.

[Helm]

when I first listened to talking heads I was blown away. Shame most of their later stuff really does nothing for me.

[ziggytrix]

True Stories (the movie!!)

[Royal Tenenbaum]

The name of this band is Talking Heads is a must for all. The Rhino remaster is amazing, and it captures there live energy even better than Stop Making Sense. I still love SMS, but, then again, I love all their music.

[Dole]

The SMS versions of the speaking in tongues songs are just amazing.

[Bobo Adobo]

"More songs about buildings and food" was the first Talking heads album I heard, and it is still probably my favorite.

[Rongi]

is it me or does david bryne kind of sound like robbin williams when he sings?

i'm gonna rent SMS tonight

[Rongi]

psycho killer was my favorite part with the spaz dance :o

it was gr8

[Helm]

Don't like psycho killer. But the huge suit thing was hilarious.

[Dole]

Psycho killer is one of my least favourite of their songs, never understood why it was so popular - but that performance is very entertaining.

[Rongi]

the song itself can get annoying, but the way Bryne performs it is just superb.

song wise i think i like crosseyed and painless the best, or the third song they played ( the name escapes me )

my favorite Talking Heads song is probably Life In Wartime, Crosseyed and Painless, or Cities.

[Helm]

Overload, Born under punches, crosseyed

[Royal Tenenbaum]

I love "A Clean Break (Let's Work)" but it's only on TNOTBITH so not that many people now it. Such an awesome song that it's strange they never recorded it for an album.

[Dole]

Aye, that song is ace. would fit right on to '77.

My picks: making flippy floppy, burning down the house, once in a lifetime, with our love.

[iron mitchell]

i've never seen "stop making sense", but it's been floating back and forth on my netflix queue for quite a while now. i'll give it a bump up.

i likes talking heads and david byrne lotsa.

[GADZOOKS]

A Clean Break is a terrific song.

Born Under The Punches is also my favorite opening song for an album ever.

[Esuohlim]

Shit how did I miss this thread? :(

The Great Curve (Rongi mentioned the "third song", I'm assuming this is it) is a phenomenally fun listen with its fast tempo and overlapping lyrics, and is my personal favorite. The first three on Remain in Light are all great, though.

77 is my favorite album, which surprises me because it's all just ordinary guitars-and-drums rock and roll. I usually don't like that kind of music, but for some reason I like every track on that album. That's how great the Talking Heads are. :(

[Rongi]

my favorite album so far is More Songs About Buildings and Food

also i THINK the third song was thank you for sending me an angel but idk

[ziggytrix]

seriously you guys, get drunk and watch True Stories (the movie)

it's got John Goodman and "It's a completely cool, multi-purpose movie."

[Esuohlim]

my favorite album so far is More Songs About Buildings and Food

also i THINK the third song was thank you for sending me an angel but idk

No that's the first song on that album, the third is called Good Thing

[Rongi]

i was talking about the third song on SMS

[Esuohlim]

oh w/e >:
