i have always loved this video.when he sings hey hey hey bit,the animation of those items.i had that vampire figure (was from a dracula board game :-) also the lady's legs remined me of 2 baguettes for some reason :-?
I was driving home on March 11 to check on my house after the Japan earthquake, and this song came on Jack FM. "The world was moving, she was right there with it, and she was..." It was one of those synchronous moments that makes life awesome even in the midst of uncertainty.
Heres what Wiki says. Of course that might be incorrect.
"According to Byrne, the song was written about a girl he knew who used to take LSD in a field next to a Yoo-hoo beverage factory in Baltimore, Maryland. "
The 80's were more than madonna and michael jackson!!! I love this band, I love The Smiths, I love joy division, I love depeche mode, and my favorite band was born in the 80's: REM. This song is great and David Byrne is The master. (I love Queen too).
@waldentree there was more innocence for me, i was sub-teen. But less darkness? The cold war, recession and state encouraged greed? Things are more hyperbolic now, i agree...but darker...not sure 'bout that, buddy.
@waldentree u must have been asleep! we had the Toxteth Riots here in Liverpool in 1981 and around the country was unrest. Maggie Thatcher was the Iron Lady and there were hardly any jobs and high unemployment. There was the Falklands conflict going on and people killing and being killed! Innocent...my arse!
