    It just seemed right.

  • This is related to the hidden immigrants around the world. It is a beautiful song to explan the feelings of someone outside their own home.

  • this song belongs to the film "Dirty Pretty Things". After you watch it, you can understand much better the meaning of this song. Simply fantastic.

  • Crash Bandicoot!!

  • Absolute genius. I feel gratitude and am truly humbled by the beauty that David Byrne evokes.

  • David ... the best.....

  • This guy never seems to age. A true eccentric musician, love him!

  • "Now I'm wakin' at the crack of dawn to send a little money home from here to the moon."... David Byrne final admits he is not from this planet.

  • Amazing! :)

  • I'm a huge Andrew Bird fan, and just discovered David Byrne recently. I swear they must be related...

  • @crasshelmet Troll

  • @crasshelmet Who? You?

  • @hufclufc Yes, I am sure David Byrne needs an 'Oracle' such as yourself to defend his honor. tell you what, you´re lucky you´re good looking, ´cause you´ve got shit in the brains dept.

  • @crasshelmet

    1000 years is a spot in time.

  • 'Pardon my French' but David Byrne is a FOOKIN' capital G - Genius!

  • I remember seeing this late on TV when it was originally aired and loved it straight away. I think this may have been what got me into Talking Heads and David Byrnes solo stuff, but I can't quite remember.

  • Amazing!!!

  • Beautiful !!!!

  • david love

  • Its clips like this that make me ponder "what if there was no utube to watch clips like this?"

  • Long time David Byrne Fan - talking heads from my youth and now him from my older years. It's been a wonderful ride and sometimes sad, sometimes reminiscent, and a reminder of my own age, (I was about 15 when the Talking Heads came out), we have aged together. And I appreciated the wonderful transition.

  • Now...I'm waking at the break of dawn..

    Fuckin' A Bitemyballz. !!! Saw this tour, and many others thro' the early Byrne years. Thanks again !

  • skin, that covers me from head to toe, except the litlles tiny holes, and openings

  • He's a genius, no doubt about that. Don't know in how many dimensions this line speaks but, for heaven's sake, I hope I'm not the only one who sees the celestial one.

    the moon is rising like a disco-tech

    more holes in the skin...

  • the search for identity, for beauty, he speaks about that, all the time.

  • David Byrne is AWESOME .

    He is just amazing . =) Love him.

  • Enjoy it while it lasts.

  • dear bitemybalz,

    whats that supposed to mean?

  • What is what supposed to mean? Enjoy it while it last? Because Youtube is notorious for taking down vids. Or do you mean my name Bitemyballz? I was inebreiated when I opened my youtube account and thought it was funny. Mainly because I have NO balls for you or anybody to bite. Plus it just sounds kinda fierce and tough, but really I'm a pussycat. Wow! Long reply!

  • @bitemyballz Can I just say I'm so happy that it's three years later and this video has not been taken down. I'm not happy because you were wrong, but really happy because this is such a beautiful song, and thank you so much for taking the time to upload it.

  • @bitemyballz Did you lose your balls in a freak accident?
