A wall of sound created by a small army of real musicians playing live

[colmas]

[offroad40]

amazing, one of the BEST Live-Videos !!!

You can feel the fun of the band :o)))

[disastertom]

great song - but the dude looks wasted at 1:32.

[paul94611]

One of the first successful attempts to take 200bpm+ commercial.

[Chumleh]

Jerry Harrison is a pimp. <3

[aizuri8]

My god its amazing, i was looking for a collection and this definitely in the list

[EthanBobcean]

they still have slaves

[brotheroftheelements]

than u should listen to the third great version of this song by the cardigans and tom jones.

...and they are all different...

..crazy.

[ginbim]

And then the fourth one by Marcus Miller... ;)

[LittleMissMalfoy]

Oh my gosh, I only looked up this song after hearing The Used's version. I don't think you could get two more different versions of the same song...

[ToneFail]

Haha, same here.

They're both awesome. :)

[bjacko688]

Oh Yeah...burn down dat house....love it...

[hairycub69]

If you like this - check out the movie in full - "Stop making sense" by Talking Heads. Directed by Johnathan Demme who went on to do "The Silence of the lambs" as well as others movies. To this day this is still for me one of the best ever concerts filmed.....(o; welcome to 1983

[acvmaqp]

¡¡¡ my house is out of the ordinary!!!!

[Bamagal0426]

All wet

Hey you might need a raincoat

Shakedown

Dreams walking in broad daylight

Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees

Burning down the house

Love it!

[goblin0]

this is so fucking good it's unreal. It's great to see the whole band having so much fun and enjoying performing together so much.

I remember watching a gig on TV where David Byrne was wearing this massive suit. When asked why he was wearing it he said "Cos it makes my head look smaller". what a legend.

[Theochineh]

he gets the massive suit out later on in this performance you should see the whole thing from the beginning because it is actually incredible

[HanDaimond]

I'm with you.

I stopped listening to the radio since the 90's. The 80's was very controversial, since there were a lot of major hits in music, but had the worst culture of the past century. Nevertheless, I would want to live it once more while listening to The Police, Depeche Mode and, of course, Talking Heads.

[VeryCasualObserver]

Wow!

[Timmybear]

It's a shame Tina's stuck behind that bass synth, instead of working the four-string, but it's still funky. :)

[Timmybear]

I much prefer this to the studio version.

[lonchecaliente]

party!!!

[DoctorRobertBobby]

jesus christ, this song is amazing

[mynameiscursed]

Haha! Yeah!

[ss40lv]

[KYDNG]

[commander273]

uhhh im white and american but i listen to death metal to techno and the only reason people start fights about music is because they think their band is the best and hates all other music just for likeing that one genre..... except for rap and hip hop all those suck

[TonalFX]

If you start with i´m white or i´m black you suck...

[Mista3620]

U suck

[chino852456]

[jackass311]

[qvaris]

for some reason, even though racism has been pretty much abolished for decades i love seeing people coming together like this, oh and rocking the fuck out!

[andreik2]

Trust me, racism isn't nearly abolished, but nice thought :)

[mesenoth]

racism isn't abolished until people neglect it... You abolish something through neglect... the same way you can destroy a house or relationship by neglecting it.

[Roadbikebitch]

get over yourself

[cole1991]

totally agree

[kentsbay]

Percussion is truly amazing.

[40harb]

this band were fantastic so ahead of their time yet rooted in the past they knew music like so many others didn't wish i ha been ther e for this concert

[MrDeathmetaldrummer]

[kinshasaAPP]

[MultiParasite]

Where's Tina's tank?

[joegehl]

LOVED this song in 1986

[theresarowell]

I tell you...for you asshole naysayers....you're welcome to pop right up on stage and show us what you can do yourself/!

[AdrianAtTheDisco]

the audio lag ruined this video for me

[yawnlee]

looooooooooool horrible dance moves...

[FeelFreak4]

Oh man this is a good song! =D

[minimom33]

met my first boyfriend when i walked in a friends house and this song came on when I walked in. Dressed all in blacl and white with white hate...it was awesome...

[HarveyDentLives]

Hmm, I don't remember that.  I'll keep an eye out next time I see the film.

[HarveyDentLives]

Where did you get that info from? TH emerged from the CBGBs scene, where drug taking was prevalent, but I have never heard of the the Talking Heads being drug abusers.

[yawnlee]

im 19 years old and i was born in the last year of the 80's and this stuff is jamming, no one really likes old school anymore...im glad im brushing up on this great music im still searching for more to download...i got like a whole lot of classics...

[CreativeFilmMaker]

Can you tell us the rest of your life story?

[kinshasaAPP]

Don't be rude. My Lord...

[yawnlee]

maybe if you have time xd

[Etatdesiege1979]

Good for you man! When I was 16 I also dumped much of what I was listening to and started to listen to the ones that matter. The 80's were really good, there's so much music there. keep on the quest!

[yawnlee]

im a girl lol, and thankyou for the inspiration..i will keep on looking..hehehe

[koalabrownie]

check out psycho killer by talking heads. Much better song. (though this one is good too).

This one isn't bad either: " Midnight Oil - Beds are Burning " despite the horrible dance moves at 2:54

[yawnlee]

hnmmmmmm okay...thanks ^_^

[kentsbay]

What energy. Gotta love em. Amazing percussion.

[freshtilldeath017]

Cool baby!!!!!!!!!!! I love this, Gah the 1980's were so cool!♥Really fun song to dance too also. This is just awesome!!!!!!!!!!!♥

[riotgurlTFP]

This is the best live band ever! David Byrne is brilliant! I want to party like that!

[kentsbay]

Amazing percussion. Great song.

[beselbic]

I like when David say's "go ahead" right before Bernie's solo. Nice little nod to the P-Funk crew.

[brdodjandje]

Better then original version

[Lanark8]

If it takes years. You threatened mine!

[payndew]

LOL i love the description for this vid

[Alamsa24]

No it wont dumbass just stop

[berulia]

woo-hoo! mr byrne, you rock! and what a band!

[therealkyarush]

talking heads and men at work... straight up classic. the best!!!!

[biophysman]

can you reinstate the 1000 comments please?

[biophysman]

great. It got reinstated. No thanks to YouTube

[lalalasamburg]

aaaweeesooomme!!!!!

[dopplerefect]

I saw that video when i was 15 ( 15 years ago) and still like it!!

David Byrne was the start of to many things in the REAL pop Music

[dopplerefect]

too :(

[preliminar]

BURNING DOWN @ WORK!

[mitd11]

Burning down at home!!

Yeehah!!!

[GoStLBlues]

bitchin'

[Rainmkk1]

ie. Drum and organ GREAT sound. Visual performance energy  gos to back up .

[Rainmkk1]

401 K song. My best friend a former CSU black q-back. We played some baskets- he said "You make it look ugly"- remember we are friends. Other then excentric band leader- the black musicians MADE this a great video. Is it just me?

[koalabrownie]

Meh, they're all musicians/singers, doesn't really matter imo. Two of the white boys can't even move (drums + keyboard), the other guy near the pips is mostly just following their lead anyway. Good group performance. Though the camera work at 2:58 - 3:19 is pretty lame. Why they stayed in close up when he's moving around like that I don't know.

[mitd11]

You dumbass, How is a drummer suppose to move, and J. Harrison is so fucked up, he can't even hardly stand up!!

These fuckers are the backbone, AND ROCK!

[stigonbass]

is he fucked up? or is that just a joke.

hes funny when he dances.

[neofaustian]

Both

[stigonbass]

how?

[dopplerefect]

ass hole

[lukus77]

hes on coke

[etdude]

Looks like they're having a damn good time!!!

[Lchezar]

Great sound for live performance,

[fistusfanius]

I find the lead singer good looking

[SgtCheeseNOLS]

I touched his pee pee 10 years ago, it was flacid tho :(

[fistusfanius]

O.K.

[TheVerveFan]

10 times better than tom, anyway

[futuretennisstars]

Best version of this song!

[Dynamitrios]

yep. The original is still unbeaten

[vulgarvulcan]

its cool

[kilanziom]

Excuse me. What was the reason for removing the quicker version of this song from the same concert which used to hang here somewhere...?

It was gorgeous.

[intoitru]

I agree...Where is the faster version???

[halolamer]

how much cocaine did they do before this show.... awsome vid

[HalsRing]

I don't know, but it must have been just the right amount, because it was a great performance.

[bowledpeakey]

Ha ha- i love how Chris wears a blue shirt in some songs and its grey in others. Demme must have been pulling his hair out in the editing room.

[mossyboy33]

Disjointed, disarming, dyspraxic, dis is fucking unbelievable. Byrne baby, Byrne.

[Mattlefthook]

Masterpiece performance if I ever saw one....

[sweetredredwine]

My house

South of the ordinary

That's right

Dont want to hurt nobody

Some things sure can sweep me off my feet

Burning down the house

No visible means of support and you have not seen nothing yet

Everything's stuck together

I don't know what you expect staring into the tv set

Fighting Fire with Fire ...

[sweetredredwine]

All wet Hey you might need a raincoat Shakedown Dreams walking in broad daylight Three hundred sixty five degrees Burning down the house It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself Gonna come in first place People on their way to work said baby what did you except Gonna burst into flame Burning down the house ...
