[musicmagic18]

"then the dos have the power by themselves" said in rhythm. brilliant

[burningburney94]

"one must never underestimate the power of a good hair-do" Never heard a quote so true.

[mediagod2004]

@burningburney94 'not about the people underneath' (the hair-do). That cracks me up. I love how he explains how he wants to make his head smaller....and in the video he uses that little mexican kid....it's cute. They ruled. He still rules. Where are the others? Never underestimate LSD and College where these guys got together either. heh. 8)

[Bosirant]

True genius!

[uhlexuhmoray]

I'll tell you later..again again!

[lmfviolet78]

This is the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life. Seriously sometimes I randomly think of it while I'm walking down the street and I spontaneously start laughing

[Mike07P]

wtf is going on

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

@Mike07P "I'll tell you later"

[birdizzle]

-If I gave you 50 dollars right now, what would you do with it?

[solomantaylorplayer]

what is happening at 3:50. This is hilarious

[DizzyPuke]

he's a Scottish origin...so now I understand that most of the people in the music industry who are original and creative are from UK...just like David Bowie... :)

[conormcc2006]

At 0.38, "I like Symmetry and geometric shapes." Sooo Strange 

[Michelis28]

This is the greatest thing ever !

[ScottFree37]

"The better the singer's voice, the harder it is to believe what they're saying."

Pure Brilliance

[ChrisWestaway]

[haveyouseencrazy]

looks a bit like forest gump

[eb0nikz]

"Music is very physical, and often the body understands it before the head."

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

What the fuck am I looking at.

[blackrad101]

@Mr11MUSICMAN I'll tell you later

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

@blackrad101 Stop making sense.

[xyoop]

[xbradx11]

David Byrne cut his penis off for art....he's real sick.

[RFGTP]

[ndbballdrummer]

He kinda looks like Bill Nye the Science guy lol

[shrinkwrap]

[lakshmimittal]

[ilijad]

David Byrne is like a living Cleverbot.

[NESavoth415]

classic

[mario0318]

Wished the volume was higher =/

[talladegajunkie1439]

I lost it at "The David Bowie" part.

[youtubbs67]

In addition, this is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

[youtubbs67]

He talk just like he sings!

[CamButler]

The Prince? The Sting? The David Bowie?

[piromaniac9999]

HAHA you got to have a sense of humor DAMM LOL

[JRodC24]

If you understand this interview, then you don't understand Talking Heads.

[AFlockOfBeagulls]

@JRodC24 I dont understand that comment. Do I understand Talking Heads.

[youtubbs67]

@JRodC24 Are you trying to be cool, or are you naturally pretentious?

[JRodC24]

@youtubbs67 Oh it's very natural. Now stop trolling and just enjoy the video.

[youtubbs67]

@JRodC24 Alright just making sure, bub.

[lunasspecto]

This makes me want to get something to eat.

[MrPipkelly]

Wow this interview is like 60 minutes on Acid

[1982pencil]

I love his answer to "When will you tour again?"

[koolcowhoney]

the doos have a power by themselves

[wantsomecake328]

I would like to show people the movies. In. My. Head.

You wanna be in movies, like the Prince? The Sting? The David Bowie?

No, but do you have anything to eat?

[colpetne]

this is the weirdest interview ever

[megasam10000]

so, was there an album about true stories from tabbloids?

[jdtheknockout]

@megasam10000 Yes, it's called True Stories.

[megasam10000]

@jdtheknockout yeah i found it thanks to you. thank you :D

[variationsthereof]

60 minutes on acid lllloooollll

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

what made me think of mardi gras 2011? she asked from the past. so he knew as an outsider he knew what he had to do besides songs about trying to say and peoples

[obesityofego]

Stop paraphrasing.

[UrbanGuerilla88]

"you wanna hear IT?"

[fangsteen]

I Love David Byrne and His Multiple

Personalities

[FlyingOBryan]

This is your brain on drugs

[EdeleSiren]

"then the doos have a power by themselves." 2:15

[DarksZero]

he looks weird

[The1stDukeDroklar]

The man is on a level i strive to achieve. I can only wonder at how he achieved it at such a young age.

[FlyingOBryan]

@The1stDukeDroklar Keep trying you will get there - But first you must escape -

[The1stDukeDroklar]

@FlyingOBryan thanks for the faith, i do understand what you mean... at least mostly ;)

[InToonamIsLegacy]

the guy at 1:58 is the best - the david bowie

[InToonamIsLegacy]

the black guy is funny

[TheMonsterMeat1]

too much crack

[Padulas]

FAKE

[alexmouseladyname]

@Padulas obviously he is dressing up as other people and interviewing himself.................

[pigobenis]

the messiah

[GrilloJ123]

ALL I CAN SAY IS "WHAT THE EFF"

[MommieDearest67]

Always loved his big suit!

[ratonpalom]

someone so great that he had to be interviewed by himself!!

[rcs202]

this was like 4 and half minutes on acid

[EastofForever]

"My God! What have I done!"

[bigtmoney8000]

"I'd like to show people the movies...in...my...head..."...­.there is a reasont this man is my hero

[sirspen]

I'll tell you later

[jekk23]

pure pure gold. This makes me laugh and glad to breathe.

He knew what not to do is what he did do

[tooterooterville]

"well...maybe later!"

[lukepleaseshutup]

38 people were mad he never got his food.

[spankythedog56]

from now on, and forever more, when i'm asked a question my response will be "i'll tell you later."

[dirtynuke]

I clicked on this video immediately after catching sight of those gigantic shoulder pads. Hahahahaa

[TVindustries5000]

i love how he potrays himself so akwardly straight forward

[bullshitfish]

Its not what the interviewers are asking him (or himself), but what his responses are. Byrne should have made another movie long since True Stories. Directors should have spotted that...

[SirPwn4lot]

What the fuck, how is his head so small???

[mackac81]

@SirPwn4lot he is making fun of the 80's during the 80's with that suit.

[RnDnproductions]

@mackac81 yeah, David Byrne is one strange person (in a good way)

[nayzany]

@SirPwn4lot Because his suit is so big!!!

[hokalee]

38 people don't understand David Byrne

[andygreenpeace]

David Byrne is coming to the UK on January 20th to premiere new concert film Ride, Rise, Roar. You can find more details on facebook "David Byrne - Ride, Rise, Roar"

[dovie2blue]

The Big Suit!!!!

[ahaymish]

Serious pair of shoulders!!

[ignoranttwat]

David Byrne. The end.

[DooomSurf]

man to man with dean learner?

[voicecrack99]

"The Sting, The Prince, The David Bowie"

[andreandeahhh]

omg blackface

[kickinitonthetube]

good god david looks strange

[kevinflo]

2:33 "I have written a love song though. In this film I sing it to a lamp."

Oh my god that entire song and performance just made sense to me.

[stubby019]

"When there is something new to say to an audience, then we'll tour again -- besides new songs -- when the only way to say that thing is through a live performance ... making ... that's what we'll be doing -- Then it's ... wha ... what we have to do ... be ... is to be touring. Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

[halifuckinfan]

Maybe later.

[MrDylaman]

have you ever taken drugs? i'll tell you later.

[mission2marsden]

"It's like 60 minutes on acid."

XD

[Spyder8477]

it's like I just found out what Talking Heads is all about now....I've been representin' "same as it ever was..." for like 20 years now, right? I'd just used in another comment and wish I'd knew the name of that song but couldn't....which led me here....must investigate and finish the bowl of kush after this menthol......."water flowing underground" What song is that frum....anyone? N E 1?

[Diggity308]

@Spyder8477 Once in a life time? might be the name of the song you are looking for if you have not found it yet "water flowing underground"

[Spyder8477]

@Diggity308 super fucking duper! u rock! I don't see how it didn't just come to me....coulda been the kush!

[skaskinhead79]

@Spyder8477

once in a lifetime!!

[TheGmgirl77]

@Spyder8477 Once in a lifetime, (but you probably know that by now already, lol)

[facer50]

Then the do's have a power by themselves.

[RnDnproductions]

2:18. i wrote a song about hair, wanna hear IT. funny.

[hairyscarydrapes]

this is fucked

[DelicateKiller13]

I don't know whether to think that this is scary or entertaining.

[rammstein11004]

is this where andy kaufman got that alter ego character in the tux? or did this come after kaufman.?

[Robama09]

@rammstein11004 I'll tell you later

[rammstein11004]

@Robama09 first you gotta do me a favor.. go fuck your mother if you got one.

[calvinjohn999]

I'll tell you later.

[KirahTheMuse]

jeez, too much shoulders,, more head please.

[theslothmonkey]

"Then the doos have a power by themselves."

[Wacek4444]

"the better the singer's voice is, the harder to believe what he sings"

[MrPepper1616]

lol this is hilarious

[ickypick39]

Less talk, more head.

[TevezHater]

David Byrne as a woman looks like Esther Rantzen

[jdstooge]

It looks like he's hiding footlong subway rolls under the jacket as shoulder pads lol!.

[angler23babe]

I would like to tell you what i thought of this video, but...

I'll tell you later.

[ferr811]

STOP MAKING SENSE

[ryantherocker74]

i just watched his film 'true stories'.. it was more like 90 minutes on acid..

[FrumpyShakes]

first I'm gonna take Acid, then I'll watch 60 minutes, and then buy food with $50.

[TheBrilliantGeniuses]

lol. i'll bet

in 2010

time machine

[tkx7]

I guess we can see why David Bryne didnt go into acting :)

[YouSmellLikeACat]

@tkx7 He made a movie called "True Stories" It's weird but still entertaining.

[mrfudgeyhead]

@tkx7

Or fashion design.

It would be a better world if he did.

[aarthoor]

Delightfully surreal!
