[colllllllooooo]

Wedding= first dance. Love it

[2fetentissima]

[focusocus82]

never seen so much green on the like line :)

[Jungletroll01]

fml that rythm guitar is awesome

[Englishlamerced]

David Byrne is so cerebral that he doesn't notice that that on his right shoulder there are a couple of honies you would commit sin for.

[squarepusher645]

areet were ALL in our PLACE... Having fun...... LOL try and catch ME!.

[PsynceFiction]

That right backing vocal is looking gorgeous!!

[WinTheDayPDX]

Absolutely enchanting.

[brammerface]

I love lamp

[Mafer020614]

Que buena canción, desde que la escuché me enamoró...!!!! No puedo dejar de escucharla.. en mi mente se repite Over and Over again...!!!! Que buen baile que se pega, jajaja

[peny121]

instantly puts me in a good mood!! :D

[Urinsten]

This song is the most epic song in the world. I wanna learn how to dance like him at 4:25!!

[emilppppe]

It tottaly sucks!

[Urinsten]

@emilppppe U can't be serious!

[morgantown1]

@emilppppe so does your spelling!

[dansaghin1]

excellent song and performance...I am listening to it over and over again

[ziflever]

Home is where i want to be Pick me up and turn me round I feel numb - burn with a weak heart (so i) guess i must be having fun The less we say about it the better Make it up as we go along Feet on the ground Head in the sky It's ok i know nothing's wrong . . nothing Hi yo i got plenty of time Hi yoyou got light in your eyes And you're standing here beside me I love the passing of time Never for money Always for love Cover up + say goodnight . . . say goodnight

[Lanedude08]

@ziflever

It's "Born with a weak heart"

[ziflever]

Home - is where i want to be But i guess i'm already there I come home - -she lifted up her wings Guess that this must be the place I can't tell one from another Did i find you, or you find me? There was a time before we were born If someone asks, this where i'll b wher il be Hiyo we drift in and out Hi yo sing into my mouth Out of all these kinds of people U got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two

[jesushairdo]

I test all my dance lamps this way :)

[tpaladino]

Wow. What else can you say... David Byrne is amazing. He's also one of the most genuinely nicest, down to earth guys out there. Not a mean bone in his body.

[gkarber]

This video is sped up.

[vanorekify]

@LeftHandPathologist I kindly disagree... You need to start seeing new musicians perform!

[derekf138]

Every other song in the world just got worked! Sorry other bands I like...

[eve9189]

I want to get myself a lamp so I can jam out with it like that!

[agonzales1133]

oh how i miss the days when artists used real instruments. brilliant song it truly is a masterpiece!

[wutsgoodnukka]

4:25 - on...the lead singer is feeling that shit hard especially at 4:54 haha

[Isdelth]

one of my favorite songs ever and i love this song far more than the record one, im gonna dance to this in my wedding or something ♥

[falaqdad15]

Those synth licks.. Genius.

[rogereggbert]

concert movies shot on film are going extinct. what a shame

[PoisonErin]

Feet on the ground. Head in the sky. It's ok, I know nothing's wrong.

[Chancestodolak]

Bernie Worrell

[gdfellow19991]

Elation

[satinspiral]

Holy shit I never knew Bill Nye could sing!

[wezleroflife]

In all fairness, you might become an asshole if you were supporting three crappy musicians with your talent. Genius of love is a stupid song, and i skip it every time nowadays

[dsarkissian]

I can't just listen to this song once, seems to be a 10 listen minimum! That beat kills!

[krischanlive]

@dsarkissian you are sooo right friend :)

[maggiestroder]

so funny - he is completely digging on the lamp at the end

[StilettoSilhouette1]

kameron carl mcworkman you should watch this. the talking heads are the best ever. david is so sic, and the movie performance is excellent in the film of the same title as the song with sean penn. good stuff indeed.

[jmo119]

2:48 - 2:57 you can tell the guitarist is feeling that shit hard.

[bootsythornton]

@jmo119 haha for real

[brayaya]

@jmo119 its called orgasm xD

[nwknwk]

I want to marry this song.

[littlecave]

know what you mean!

[jmo119]

@joeraffe92 i've seen your comment atleast 10 times this week.

[fjolset]

Brilliantly melds geek with cool. But that's what they always did.

[Lylodile]

This is better than the studio version in my opinion.

[pintalnisto]

i think this is best song, on best concert in the world, really, say goodnight

[simotb00]

In this video, doesn't he look like Christian Bale?

[Tibutita]

totally agree with you, better than the studio version

[duonra10001]

they make great lyrics and funky!

[009BRIBRI]

Is so nice to be home...my couch..my bed...

[THEFLESHMANN1]

I am completely and irreverently psychotic . I peed on some christmas presents and sent them in the mail to my family , I listen to this after I set up shotgun traps in my two story brownstone. I enjoy dressing like a female and stabbing people /WAIT THIS ISNT EHARMONY

[jonpaulmoen]

are they even playing those instruments? sounds like it's all piped in

[TheAnarchanon]

@jonpaulmoen

These videos are taped together from different shows, so the sound is synched in later on. That's why it looks slightly off at times.

Good example is at 4:59: the sound is already him singing while in the video his timing was slightly off

[ivvy12]

I always associate this song w/Ryan Gosling. (crazy, stupid love & Lars and the real girl) I love him!!

[ivvy12]

Excuse me, would u like a lamp dance? lol :)

[jesuslovested]

caught lip syncing @ 4:59

[HadeesHeart]

@jesuslovested The videos to the Stop Making Sense songs are all made of clips from different nights over the tour, but to 1 song. For example this song could be from a concert in .. Texas, but that clip at 4:59 is in Georgia. That's why it's messed up a bit. :)

[jesuslovested]

@HadeesHeart wrong... stop making sense was filmed over the course of 3 nights at the hollywood pantages theater.... not from their whole tour.

[wildog348]

@jesuslovested exactly right! i was there for the last night of filming...so cool!

[humanpeyote]

This song...saved my life

[shellinwinter]

coooooooool

[uoprgo]

Awesome... Nice song and movie too.

[napowen]

is Tina high lol?

[junior1984able]

Bump this homies

[Rasoglumsteve]

1.970.980 ..........

The eighties will never come again

[HadeesHeart]

@Rasoglumsteve There's endless music out there, the 80's never left, friend :)

[MrChooch23]

Agreed, cant believe how good this song is. Classic David.

[TomG6000]

Masterpiece! (I wanna sleep with both those back-up girls...at the same time! Sorry but its the truth!) GREAT performance anyway!!!

[elserracho]

52 people disliked this. what the fuck is wrong with people?

[gelukkigin]

i just can't get over how amazing this song is.

thanks arcade fire for covering it!!!!

[cdt91]

tabs for the black guys guitar parts, anyone?

[swanny4692]

Bump the lamp

[nazepositive]

Thank you Lars and The Real Girl for making me discover this awesome song

[dav511]

I don't know about you, but this makes me wanna dance

[lifetimestube]

Thumbs up if 'tweak' sent you

[GenuineColour]

david byrne is such a good performer. Id probably say one of the best in music history. He is there to entertain you completely. a selfless performer at its best!

[evertonfc176]

@GenuineColour Selfless?!?! tina said he was an absorbed asshole

[GenuineColour]

@evertonfc176

selfless performer. He wants the audience to have a better time than him

[evertonfc176]

@GenuineColour selfless doesnt mean taking into account other peoples experiences with a greater deal of weight than your own. and where are you getting this bit about him being selfless?

[squarepusher645]

If mum waS still around, in meh mind she would say this song reminds me of some Well happy days..

[blasterskv]

such a warm song. makes me wanna hug my family :D

i sound like gay hahah

[119Agent]

What is Tina looking at?

[texasrv]

Can I just say. I love this song and video. It's such a Happy Happy Song. the guitar is sublime. It makes me smile every time i hear it and I've heard it a lot!

[jeffkoenig79]

Pretty pathetic when MGMT has more views than Talking Heads on This Must Be The Place. I like MGMT as well...but seriously? Have so many kids' parent failed to inform them about the importance of the Talking Heads and David Byrne? I guess my parents failed as well. I found the Talking Heads through Phish. Forever changed. Love peace and prosperity for all.

[119Agent]

@jeffkoenig79

Not really fair comparison since this has been taken down numerous times.

[coop2391]

@jeffkoenig79 yes because we all know that kids love to take the advise of their parents when it comes to the music they should listen to

[rockandrollnigger]

this is amazing

[junior1984able]

year i was born

[KurtG85]

1:55 Oh my.

[woodchuckmool]

maravilloso!! 

[squarepusher645]

I'll have this tune playe at my wake.. not to be a bummer but it's always good!

[xenophonon123]

yes but thanks for the response.

[gennaiafebbraio]

That guitar player has his groove on!

[Bajerloco]

That dude is having a great time playing the guitar!

[JDizzle785]

either the audio is out of sinch during parts of this or hes lip synching

[hamburgerstastegood]

@JDizzle785 They recorded this movie over several shows and took the best audio and video. So sometimes the audio is from one performance and the video is from another. That's probably why it isn't quite synced. 

[klair90]

Hey Lady Gaga...take a look...THIS is ART..not your stupid copycat crap

[joeraffe92]

David Byrne loves lamp.

[gompth1966]

I've always loved this song, and now I love the lamp-dance.

[odiealegodediego]

I think this song is perfect

[commandercortez]

Holy shit, this groove is intoxicating

I've watched this about 10 times in the past 2 days

[gelukkigin]

@commandercortez i'm so glad i'm not the only one - i simply can't get enough

[xenophonon123]

so wonderful....mesmerizingly good. A lot like Silence of The Lambs (oddly enough).

[bfdhvcnvvbjdn]

@xenophonon123 Both were directed by Jonathan Demme (or maybe you already knew that)

[Korbal]

this is probably the best thing ever recorded

[Mrmrpopo]

if you dont like this, how did you even stumble upon this?

[aamontal]

50 people were in the wrong place

[SailorLeda]

Stupenda...



[MGMDubstep]

Thumbs up if you instantly recognized this song in Crazy, Stupid, Love!!

[ErinMarieChase]

This is great! I <3 David Byrne.

[canguro1978]

Just bought this cd from play.com. no video, oh well.

[smartin233]

"Love me till my heart stops, Love me till I'm dead"

[cheboludisimo]

how can you not like that? it's the bomb, the hellified looooveee music!

[oskiewhoaskie]

Perfection!



[Dallaslampworking]

at 4:30- That is how I test all my dance lamps.

steve/Lodi

[Patriccio72]

I like this video because everyone looks like they're having genuine fun!

[lakers1427]

Mgmt cover is better

[awhiteman1986]

@lakers1427 no your just assclown why would a cover be better than the original idoit

[cloob1000]

such good sound quality

[canguro1978]

Couldn't have the co singers dressed better? They look like they just got out of a sweat shop.

[harshlight7]

David Byrne from 1984! If you can hear me, please travel forward in time to the year 2011 and use your lamp from this performance to beat someone called "Justin Bieber" to death! You will have altered the space-time continuum for the better! Trust me!

[jjjjjdog9090]

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this.

[aquariusrizing]

This'll be in the book for sure, thanks for posting.

[SuperLaney81]

Great band. Great tune!!! Wallstreet!!!

[glasgol727]

@TheJetlaggg funny really my boyfriend did not like it and didn`t want me to play it. What the hell that means!

:D

[blindshadow01]

Does anyone know how to get this version of this track? Is it from the movie stop making sense? This version is off the charts!

[domthewelsh]

@blindshadow01

It's from Stop making Sense yeah. Which is also a live album.

[yessimed]

[snarfinigus]

Talking Heads, this is snarfy, pleeez get back together, before I hear this awesome interplay of talented artists "converted" to elevator music. Come on!

Chuck Norris could ya do it.......

[snarfinigus]

America needs Heads

America needs Heads!

America needs the Talking Heads!!!!

This music lives because its practically on fire, and because of genius. Its fun.

Come on David Byrne, Pleeeeez, you gotta do this again,

[Amhlair]

@TheJetlaggg me me me me I I I I me me me me I I

[JimboSlice2929]

I have never hated anyone in my life....but now i HATE 50 people.

[jackcenyeart]

@TheJetlaggg You have officially stopped making sense.

[pimpanjoeleo]

ahhhhrgh, what can i say, my brother used to do that with my mums lamp and we used to laugh. now im in my 30s and fully appreciate the music. probably the best concert ive ever seen.

[joeytwosubs]

@TheJetlaggg That was so nice of you to share that with us. Who gives a fuck? You should kill yourself right away. Thanks

[gelukkigin]

this song is amazing.... love it.

[zaperfan]

[sminkyminky]

genius songwriter/musicians. unlike MG whatever they be. 

[tajto92]

[svideogame]

Incredible!!! :D :D I love this song !

[1986alec]

Charlie Sheen would be proud of this

[thelodgeartscentre]

This is one of my all time favorites...pure naive genius! saw David play at Bracknell festival a few years back...Gggrreat:)

[ghostboy1230]

DAVID BYRNE YOURE AMAZING

[garrettwarren2]

@ghostboy1230 I upvoted your comment because A.) I fucking agree and B) You used the proper form of "You're"

[skyfeverrr]

leave MGMT alone they're mint.

[TheBoomSlayer]

these guys are so amazing, this song is like no other ive ever heard.

[NormanArches]

Surely the best concert video ever made?

Oh, and leave MGMT alone - they´re great as well.

[mirawela]

@NormanArches they cant be great like talking heads just learn about music and then comment

[Gallas1000]

This has to be the best video on the internet, anywhere.

[TravellerFellow]

great song, super movie. *****

[jlalewicz]

Know this song has its own regard, HOWEVER, who could possibly forget 'Wall Street'???? Impossible!!!! I heard this & am like....WHO THE FUCK IS THAT??? WANT SUM!! Discovered the Talking Heads....rest is HISTORY:)

[todgreenfield]

"There was a place before I was born, if someone asks Luis is where I'll be"

[funktrane]

Locked-in effortless joy.

[Longnez]

Allez, on aimerait bien revivre ces années là ne serait ce pour réécouter cette bonne musique!

[stevenjsmith1903]

Sheer genius

[itsRaee123]

The beginning instrumental is so peaceful. I wish there was an instrumental video of this version

[Smithworks2]

awesome song watched wall street in the eighties and still groovin at the end of "money never Sleeps (Wall Street II) ....Byrne is an icon.....

[flyekkeepdiscovering]

[The0bvious]

E P I C
