Man, they must be one of the most underrated bands ever. Everyone likes their stuff, even if they don't realize it.

I think my favourite song is This Must Be The Place.

Gente?

Agreed.

Edit : Had an afterthought... theres an Aussie band called - architecture in helsinki - I swear they could of been fathered by talkheads... they are not a direct rip, and go places the heads didn't,  but if ANYBODY was going to do the cover of - Burning down the house ( my fav track ) - on a tribute release, its them.

Actually The Arcade Fire does a fucking awesome cover of the aforementioned This Must Be The Place.

mmhmm. love me some talking heads.

but my fave is probably the song in your sig.

I have no clue what they sound like.

they sound like a psycho killer, cutting out your eyeballs.

Oh man, I just farted real hard on that post above mine.

hahaha

I do a little dance of glee every time a Talking Heads song comes on the radio.

Point me to a good one.

"How did I get here?"

You folks have no idea how often I ask myself that very question...

Point me to a good one.

Since when did MTV have music?

"Sorry, we're unable to offer this video to users in your region"

Back in the days when your mom was getting fisted by your uncle.

That's lame about MTV not showing it.

Here's another song from you tube (embedding disabled):

Talking Heads "Burning Down the House"

that's one of my favorite Talking Heads songs!

My brain doesn't know what to do with that song.

as long as it doesn't do a shitty duet with the Cardigans then you're cool

Man, the Talking Heads are everything that was good about the 80s.

as long as it doesn't do a shitty duet with the Cardigans then you're cool

Lovefool was a quality pop song.

My brain doesn't know what to do with that song.

Have you really never heard that song before?

If so, it's a shame that the video for OH YEAH I FOUND IT!

Here's the video for Once in a Lifetime:

Talking Heads - Once In A Lifetime

Krsna is my new god of amazing

More like the demi-god of Meh.

More like the demi-god of Meh.

No way, you couldn't possibly be unseated.

Krsna is my new god of amazing

The Talking Heads are pretty fucking sweet when you're fucked up.
