[divisioneight]

Funk for the mind.

Juice for the Brain

Soul for the Body

[gelman62]

How the hell does this video have less than a million hits?! This song has been in a million different venues. David Byrne is a genius.

[JarpiDarpi]

The best thing that happened to TH!

[23stav]

J'adore toujours !!!! MERCI David

[blackhorse099]

haha i like this song just because it's groovy and i like his crazy babbling! it's so entertaining

[rexpulsar]

Saw them play Hammersmith Odeon with U2 as the supporting act. Needless to say it was a fine evening...........

[mimefan]

For some strange reason, I always think that this song is about water-boarding.

[Peppepoppldoppl]

Talking Heads is one of those few bands along with a few other artists that has only produced quality music. Every single one of their songs are amazing.

[gorillazhead]

@Peppepoppldoppl Like Pink Floyd, I own almost everything they've ever recorded.

[Champiness]

Just recently I had the privilege of watching a local politician trying to use the lyrics of this song to explain why some law shouldn’t be passed. Needless to say he failed miserably!

[cassie371000]

In a 100 years it will the same as it ever was for that day

[feralmusic]

i know exactly where i was when i 1st heard this on the radio, and i remember thinking that this was still going to sound great 30 years later. i was right.

[idmannn]

Great band

[borgellachrist]

i first heard this song at the garage....wow i had know idea

[Jur4ssicPark]

You can't sync the song and the video because there is a 21 second difference, awesome discovery, they made the intro to the vid ten seconds longer than the actual song, this squeezed out parts of this song and made for Byrne doing a shorter dance. :(

[Jur4ssicPark]

In the music video, they skip eighteen seconds of the song, the part after "Same as it Ever Was" but before the chorus, "There is water under the ocean, carry the water" That bit.

[thegrandwazoooo]

@Jur4ssicPark so what???

[mushy295]

@Jur4ssicPark you may tell yourself i deserve a medal

[PoppySandals]

Left Hand & Left Hand

[lo0puggo]

this song is 30 years old o.o

[xterminatorofficial]

brian eno treated the band like shit in this project. he recorded the band in the studio as always, but afterwards he would re-arrange and undo everything making the end product nothing like the band intended. basically, eno used the band as musical samples to what was actually HIS project. it sounds great, but the band weren't happy. that's why red paint is masking their faces; to symbolise their true identity being masked, and being turned into something else more grotesque and monstrous.

[gabysalter]

@xterminatorofficial That is fascinating stuff, I had no idea. I've seen that album cover many times but would never have guessed the reason behind it. I'd love to hear the bands version of the album, the way they'd intended it to sound.

[cwell2112]

@xterminatorofficial Source? (Not suggesting this is wrong, I'm curious and would like to read more).

[Corechase]

you may find yourself...liking this song!

[patmos789]

chorus: ¿Brian Eno?

[johnreyes78]

Another great 80s anthem!! :))

[SpadoniSauro]

VERY BEST SOUND IN THE WORLD

[TheCagedTiger]

LETTING THE DAYS GO BY, LET THE WATER HOLD ME DOWN, LETTING THE DAYS GO BY, WATER FLOWING UNDERGROUND, INTO THE BLUE AGAIN, INTO THE SILENT WATER, UNDER THE ROCKS AND STONE, THERE IS WATER UNDER

Feelgood song of the world.

[PunkysDilema1970]

[fleamarket3000]

@MagicCryo Eno has the Midas touch

[superarmysoldier12]

@MagicCryo I think you're a genius. Maybe, I'm just drunk and high, but you are a philosophical giant.

[AnthropomorphicHorse]
