Talking Heads - Slippery People

[stekel60]

an example of right timing with the right people!...

super.

[victoriamason1]

crickey!

[chopseee]

look at these girls dancin my lord class

[nathanB091]

I love the backing singers, there's just not much music today with backing singers, and when there is it's very subtle, instead of like this were it's nice and present in the song. Plus they look like they're having a blast on this video :)

[MrMinutemen]

best concert ever! Stop making sense!

[Taffy5757]

Saw Talking Heads in Providence, RI years ago. This was the BEST show I have EVER been to ! And I've been to a lot of shows..... David Byrne is THE BEST !

[charleshowarth1]

The bass is so goddamn funky and catchy !!!! Proper music

[imacpherson3]

This is one of those songs that is timeless. It still sounds as fresh today as when it first came out. Love TH!

[falaqdad15]

Lyric meaning : making fun of crazy TV preachers of the 80s

when Eno and Byrne teamed up for my life an the bush of ghosts, they would record preachers from the radio

the song is sort of describing an exorcism

[musicmagic18]

he is so hot

[zetalore]

that guy is crazy in the head, but that makes a great musician i guess.

[furi0usfungus]

So disappointed I wasn't born in time to see this concert

[asxtc]

@furi0usfungus You can get the whole brilliant concert on DvD these days...its worth getting imho.

[chongygardner]

damn! hes doin some FUNKY ASS SHIT on that guitar!

[xenophonon123]

...everyone in traffic is listening to this same song; all over the world.

[tweezerfreezer]

i love the black chicks dancing!!!

[peeceeuk]

@tweezerfreezer Edna Holt is one of them. I think that is her name.

[tsjoukie1]

[TonyTuthill]

Love this one so much.

[tsjoukie1]

i saw and danced all the concert long togheter with 2000 more in brussels

[childrensadvil]

@dontcareyourestupid

i absolutely agree. just a few hours ago i had to clean up my basement, and i listened to this album not only to get me energized/start moving uncontrollably, but also dancing to the talking heads can make anything seem like intensely amazing fun. i mean, if hell were the devil forcing me to dance to the talking heads for eternity, he'd just get frustrated with me because i'd enjoy it and be oh too willing. :)

[pennydesouza]

I hope this doesn't sound pretentious, but I think this video shows how good life can be.

[stekel60]

so freak,n nice!!!!......

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

could watch this concert over and over, what amazing energy David Byrne has!!

this group was very underrated, they really put on great live show, very tight band!!!

[mickcranie]

wife made me dance like him 20 years ago loved it .

[kocean1]

These lyrics kill...!

[Lukiel666]

This is what happens when a genius is also insane and creative. If only there were more...

[TherMoJo]

this part is simple...bloody great lyrics ,music and showmanship...imagine this on x factor!!!!!

[mohigney1]

im sitting here ...and dancing all over the house ...what a lovley noise.....

[MrZachman7]

After all these years, I still have a crush on David Byrne.

[Whiter00m]

Hey these guys are having a great time. especially these two black chicks - just a delight to watch.

[pennydesouza]

Looks like so much fun.

[bob8738]

@dontcareyourestupid no

[srmrolltide1111]

[catamaranman333]

God help us!

Help us loose our minds

These YouTube posters

help us understand - David Byrne

[probrojeffro]

That's one white black man. Soul Man Byrnes.

[pennydesouza]

Damn, this performance has such a groove.

[adamtzsch]

Demme got it right. Scorcese ought to stick to gangster movies (The Last Waltz?)

[HerrDionysus]

beautiful bassist

Tina I love your dancing

Will you marry me?

-haiku for tina...

[Slipandfall360]

[jacobpayne89]

@LocketRaunchers you're a hero

[cultenhove]

@LocketRaunchers Hello, I grew up in Scotland and this was a life changing thing when I saw the video, where was it filmed? Kind regards, Brian

[LocketRaunchers]

@cultenhove I think it was at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood.

[billgutsky]

@LocketRaunchers now it's mine too :)

[axeldaubree]

@LocketRaunchers excellent!!

[muttley299]

@LocketRaunchers what about the awesome bit between 0:00 and 4:06

[mugglemoomoo]

[Froebs]

@adampegler90 well fucking said

[tessysox]

I want that suit...

[superhep44]

david byrne absoluteley 1st class, the rest of the band anyway, but those two background girls....aaaa++++, they must have lost 10 kilos of weight after this performance, wonderful!!!!

[NightmareBill]

Talking Heads are awesome. I love how the camera man gives the backing vocals some well deserved attention. Pretty girls with great voices.

[Robotrock04]

Perfection.

[clawspace]

Love love, love this!!

[PremiseTester]

I never knew David Byrne ever had a job in a Corporation. Hard to imagine that he ever wrote these lyics without one.

[jrpears1]

I've often wondered if people don't realize how good a guitar player David Byrne is. I didn't, until I saw Stop Making Sense. Listening to the record, I thought "well, that's probably easy enough to do in the studio", but watching this clip...

[kenseyolman]

Quite possibly my most favorite song of all time.

[patrickbontinckx]

Talking heads, David Byrne !, all the mucic of the heads .... Deep grove and fun !

[bob1234619]

I saw this concert with my mom at 12 years old. It was a life changing experience for me . Tina and Chris did Genius of love. Slippery people, Life during War time, Psyco Killer, so many incredible songs. To this day my eyes tear up when I hear Naive Melody/this must be the place.

[Araclain]

@bob1234619 /JELOUS ENGAGED

[funktrane]

@bob1234619 Your mom rocks.

[hemmingway28]

@bob1234619 you are one lucky dude, you had a cool mom too

[musicmagic18]

@bob1234619 you lucky fucking bastard, my dad had tickets to this concert but sold them to help pay for a new car or something. I watch this movie at least 3 times a week

[huizen33]

great!!!

[WishItWas1969]

genius!

[CrustyDoom]

a friend of mine showed me this about a year ago. its changed my whole perspective on the talking heads, as well as my life.

[kamikadze1300]

it has to be one of my fav songs of all time :). also: this concert was amazing :O

[housexmx]

Sorry hoor maar was ik niet geil dab werd ik het nu wel intussen .

[mani5233]

[timages]

...love the lyrics!

...post modern's first comic of rock...didn't know he played a nice second guitar...but it's Tina's bass...kills me, (she's always got it goin, listen to their other songs).

[jabel5]

The bassist, she's cool, but the bass is divine.

[elconijo]

Bill Nye on lead vocals, everybody.. Bill Nye

[Araclain]

@elconijo Who is Bill Nye...?

[elconijo]

@Araclain the science guy..

[1glassMilk]

I like the black ladies! :)

[MFlanders1]

Great Music,,Great Band!

I really miss GOOD MUSIC

Our world is really going downhill. Although I would like to be younger,,not if it had to be in the current times.

[glynchandeliers]

Maybe the 80s weren't so bad after all.

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

@glynchandeliers the Heads were a large part of the 80's with their breakthrough music, and they were a very good live band. David Byrne's genius and ecclectic nature made the Heads a truly unique band

[mustardcheetahful]

I wanna bang that bassist

[platter1000]

@mustardcheetahful r u sure about that? she's pushing 60 by now

[elginxxxman]

@platter1000 And? That doesn't mean anything. Have you seen Patti Hansen lately?

[MacBubbles]

@mustardcheetahful

I have banged that bassist.

.

..

...

Naaaaaaaaahh.. just kidding!  Hey, could you imagine? Ha!

[snowghostshires]

Some of the best dance music ever!

[croydonsbest]

being sober sucks just like music these days......

[Doblevi90]

En los descansos del futbol del Atletico de Madrid lo ponían siempre durante aquella temporada

[mrbignose888]

one of their bests, but the pitch of this version and speed is not right, too bad

[thebenoch]

@mrbignose888 Yes, this is running a little fast, isn't it?

[greppia92]

man I'm in love with the chorister on the right

[TheD1763]

Most swinging song ever...David Birne,best song writer, I was stoned as hell!

[9theAwfulbet]

Wow I was raised on this album and am seeing the video half for the first time. Was worried it would change my impression but actually just enhances it! Nice bongos! Is there anything Phil LaMarr can't do? Aside from reprise his role from Spiderman 2 of course.

[glynchandeliers]

@9theAwfulbet Say whu?



[9theAwfulbet]

@glynchandeliers Well because of the Spiderman reboot he will have to play a different character.

[glynchandeliers]

@9theAwfulbet Who was he in Spiderman 2? I am perplexed. I could google it but I'd rather hear it from you

[royalnaz1]

cheers mate im drunk too. happy friday the 13th watch out for jason

[chetumalkid]

I´m sure those 5 people that didn´t like it, will change their mind by the time they turn 13 years old.

[chetumalkid]

I´m sure those 5 people that didn´t like it, will change their mind by the time they turn 15 years old.

[donttouchmybikini]

The Talking Heads are on a whole different orbit. So good...so funky.

[seeitflyquickly]

haha, orbit. I'm so drunk.

[zephyro11]

David's face at the end of this song chills me to the bone.

[uRBaNDaMaGe]

One of the baddest tracks ever produced

Fuck the fascists - enjoy the funkists :)

[kamikadze1300]

ahh i just watched this concert, it's so amazing!!!

[th1nk21]

Best version.

[GLynn4421]

why is David Byrne so fucking cool?

[Wernerandreasli]

Ich liebe es seit 1983

[bartxg92]

Tina <3

[luigicamp69]

When I was a DJ back in 1984, I used to put on this song and the dance floor would be packed within seconds. It was amazing.

[ABEEZY9]

Man, these guys are fuckin' cool

[kamikadze1300]

it;s definitely THE best version of this song :). i dont know why, but although i listened to it hundreds of times, it didnt get boring at all! next to mozart's 'confutatis' it has to be my biggest 'music' addiction :D

[ciderpressmedia]

I saw this in a theater at the Pike Place Market in Seattle. I'll never forget. 

[mrbignose888]

the sound is really wrong in this version :( but ah well, that's the best we can get

[waltonherb]

[roommojo]
