Better than Burning Down the House, I think.

Far and away the best Talking Heads song

Ancient Lighting ROUNDHEADS!!!! SQUAREHEADS!!!! @2020

Hell yeah!

New York CBGB Post punk New wave Funk

For some reason i think in a girl fighting againts a gay priest when i listen this song

Wrong song, brother. You better check out C-moon.

@Амир Кулиев You never notice the name of the Coffee, right?

Partying by myself watching the decades end. Glad I was alive to hear this.

#moonrocks

TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS...

wrong song

No thanks, I’m a government man.

This song is criminally underrated.

cave johnsons theme song lol

Yo, I can do that. Punk meets rockabilly

Lyrics?

Flying saucers, levitation
Yo, I could do that
Get ready, for heavy duty
Go on, give it a chance
Give it a chance, give it a chance
I saw your hair start to curl
So get up, write it down
You better wait for a while


So take your hands out of your pockets
Get your face adjusted
I heard it, somebody lied
And I’m staring out the window gonna let this thing continue
In its natural time
Round heads, Square heads
Get settled in
You can hear my belly rumble, there’s a voice that starts to mumble
Whoo, It’s starting to sing


Protons, neutrons
I ate a rock from the moon
Got shocked once, shocked twice
Let’s see what it can do
Man in the moon,Moon in the man
I got a rock in my throat
Up side, upside down
My tummy starts to talk


Gonna rock it till I shock it
Gonna kick it till I drop it
Love at first sight
You can kick it, you can poke it
Whoo, I think you broke it
Ooh, what about that
Skin from a snake
Blood from a stone
You know that ain’t no lie
I got hundreds of expressions, try to make a good impression
Right between the eye


I don’t mind, let me go
Right on time, I don’t know
Let me be, why not stay
I feel numb, let me play


I got wild imagination, talkin' transubstantiation
Any version will do
I got mass communication, I'm the human corporation
I ate a rock from the moon
Moon in the rock, rock in the moon
There's a moon in my throat
You might think I'm wasting time, you might laugh but not for long
Hey! I'm working it out (work it out)

STILL listening in 2017
I hear this song in my head every morning when I wake up, so I play it!

BUT IT'S 2019

Bass player from Tom Tom Club
& now there she is with Talking Heads

Parehuruhuru Witehira she was with talking heads when she formed tom tom club with chris frantz, though

con loro su n altro pianeta negli anni in cui droga e musica erano il mio essere vivo su questo pianeta

I hear this song in my head every morning when I wake up, so I play it!

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Living the dream

For my money one of the best albums of the 1980's.

Takes me back to the Regan 80's. If you hush- puppies are having a baby about Trump- Trump's a walk in the park compared to Regan/ Bush.

I was not born till after 911, but still I do Margret Thatcher and Trump are worse. Trump follows some of the same economic principles without trying . Too many slippery slopes and Slippery People

orion deschamps talking heads

They're aging incredibly well.

Fav TH track

Idk why some people think this track was just an album filler? This was one of the band's finest songs, I wish they played it live!

That it was never live probably held back its' success.

Best song on the album

Jared Brogdon : I hear you 🙌🏻💃💃💃

This album had no fillers. Whole thing fuckin SLAPS,

@Andy Williams ,
Ya dig!
#nofiller#jusSlaps#yeee

Man doesnt music get any better?.... No....

Tina is truly a master. And a nerd. I think i'm in love.

this fucking BUMPS

This song always makes me think of Alien for some reason

Song written by Byrne/Frantz/Harrison/Weymouth - Off Album - SP EAK IN GI N TO NGU ES - 1983 - Sire Records - Recorded at Blank Tapes - N.Y. - Butch Jones - Engineer - Mixed at Compass Point Studios & Sigma Sound - N.Y. - Alex Sadkin - Engineer - Mastered at Sterling Sound - N.Y. - Ted Jenson - Engineer - David Byrne - Keyboard - Guitar - Lead Vocals - Jerry Harrison - Keyboards - Guitar - Vocals - Chris Frantz - Drums - Vocals - Tina Weymouth - Bass - Guitar - Vocals - Alex Weir - Guitar - Steve Scales - Percussion - Produced by Talking Heads

Pretty sure this song is about smoking crack. Swamp also has heavy drug connotations

@-Waiting-For-Venus - Straight edge is doubtful...if you read "This Must Be The Place" or any of the post-breakup interviews of band members, coke and weed were in the mix. Not to defame DB or discredit his creativity around that period...just being realistic. It was the 80s after all.

Senzuri-Champion All four members have done drugs recreationally. Byrne even mentions his drug use in the Sand In The Vaseline liner notes. No biggie. And the heads made psychedelic music as well as anyone else. Memories Can’t Wait in particular is specifically about drugs.

@monkeytrousers ,
Thanks 4 all ur knowledge , information n insight! True Heads/ DB fan.
#yeeee

1983? Nah

m a g i c m u s h r o o m s

beginning like 'huhuhuhhuhuhuh'

STILL listening in 2017

Get on my level 2018

2019 bič

They lit a different candle. Talking Heads chose to go to the moon because it was groovy.

buzz fledderjohn going to the moon because it's a groovy place was the same mindset NASA had. They were right too.

@ShaddyCrunchum fuck NASA

Walking on the Moon
