The entire song sounds like it's been turned inside out - the paranoid, jumpy, alienated chant of the original is turned into a bunch of nonsense words crooned by preppies. It's like watching Se7en reformulated to be an episode of Happy Days.
Not everything is going to be sweet. You can't drop half a pound of sugar into whiskey and think that the sweetening is going to improve it.
An insult to the original of the Talking Heads. People who think this is good, must have never heard it. Unfortunately the terror of copyright is keeping it off Youtube.
NICE arrangement! Who did it?

@CannibalSmiley I agree about the incongruity but give them credit for doing a good song.

The spirit of the lyrics is in your performance.
You'd best believe This thing is real
Put away that gun This part is simple
Try to recognize What is in your mind
God help us! Help us loose our minds

I get that you want to do complicated music because, well, you can. But it's not the right song.
