Talking Heads - Live in Rome 1980 - 02 Stay Hungry

[sadfasdf74]

is their a way to get this in a audio only version?

[HArryhood421]

@sadfasdf74 yea, just dont watch the video

[rabbitfish63]

I would venture to say that Byrne learned from Belew. He is playing Belewish lines in Stop Making Sense just a few years later when Belew was gone and he was the showy guitarist of the band.

[meawhead]

:) :) :) :)

[chesterlott821]

Your video is a favorite on Colombia

[Stefano4393]

Awesome.Nothing less.!! Thanks for uploading.!

[thavmoe]

@irislove that look turns my on.,

She so hot

[thavmoe]

At iris, it turns my on she so hot

[Irisplove]

Wow. That sultry look that Tina gives at 1.22 is sooooo hot!

[ripsaa2003]

Belew is a machine

[TrapFloors]

Anyone figure out Belew's solo?

[dynmohum]

This is video is so great. Adrian Belew rocks!!!

[gxtmfa]

David's comping under Belew's solo is pretty neat

[boibad12]

That melody at about 2:30 is so beautiful

[Sunflower0122Z]

The crowd is in ecstasy the entire night and man are they loud!

[filzam1]

16 yo and one of my first concerts..fascinating by one band who mixed noise, music and an incredible live at the same time..unique in 1980..and at that time italian state tv was still airing live music...sigh

...and yes finally Tina....we all wanted to marry her ....once in the lifetime....

[hellohelloveromica]

Oh Belew

[Wrkncacnter777]

I am lucky enough to have seen Belew in concert twice this last decade with King Crimson, and each time, and every time I see him in video, at how great a performer he is in addition to his talent with the guitar.

[Angryjazz]

Adrian... Fucking... Belew...

[bennyh8]

Tina's thinking.....'You are not supposed to be playing that.'

[boibad12]

adrian belew has one of the biggest widows peaks i've ever seen. great performance from him and everybody else nonetheless

[zenpaganwarrior]

@boibad12 Yeah, thank the guitar gods that his widow's peak didn't interfere with the extreme guitar innovation going on lol

[sauce33]

1:15 ommmg amazing..

[hellojenny20]

i want to make sweet love to Tina <3

[nick1137]

chris frantz always looks like hes having such a good time

[vutrack72]

that dude's crazy on the bongos

[tippycolfax]

Tina is so intense.

[java7686]

I love david byrne and the talking heads. Have you ever seen Adrian Belew with Zappa?

[johnmckinlay67]

@java7686 He played on Zappas "Sheik Yerbouti" album...another classic. PS thanks tpatgod for posting this ..Talking Heads at their finest. ***** 5 Stars !

[zaezen]

tina weymouth ........wow !!

[mccullochker]

the PZMs do it for me

[RKM52925]

Adrien KILLS it on this track...

[woowootata]

excellent stuff

[sydbarret1973]

i would **** tina senseless;-)

[tethystheone]

Belew is amazing

[kimonui]

check out Tina looking askance at Adrian. ('didn't hear THAT in rehearsa!")

[clairc9]

Adrian is such an addition to this band,with his skills it's amazing.

[vulgarvulcan]

great band, supa sexy bassist

[sloaney33]

She is the best fucking bass player I have heard, My god!!!!

[tnway]

1:13 Tina is so sexy

[FormerlyKnownAsShun]

some very experimental stuff going on here live, different from the record track... enjoy it very much, this was Byrne in his prime...

[monkeytrousers]

No one even approaches guitar the way Adrian Belew does.

[FunnyHaHaFunnyHaHa]

A great band. David Byrne has never made rock music as compelling and sophisticated as he did while in the Talking Heads.

[sandrovic1970]

Talking Heads are so unique and unlike anyone else and for some strange reason they strike the perfect chord for me. This is music that you can just listen to by yourself and it does not matter if others are not into it.

[Alexm799]

that was one of the best comments ive seen on youtube,couldnt of said it better myself..

[iPwnzorz]

2:19 is when it gets REAL good <3

[farblondjetter]

I agree, Tina may have married Chris but its Adrian she is checking out then.

[JRJigsawyer]

Ahaha, so true... what a sick breakdown!  I'd have killed to go to a Heads show in the early 80s.

[daegrant]

It's not exactly average at any point but I'd say it's 1.14 when the real fun starts

[bethellodge]

who writes a song like that??!!! Brilliant! the shift after 1:14 is genius

This Belew character is amazing.

...yeah and Weymouth's pretty groovy huh?

[2pru123]

Brilliant and weird - could be the soundtrack to a 1,000 lives. An anthem to the Talking Heads and a taste of what followed on Remain In light.

[bushido4kanzler]

Tina Weymouth is the most beautiful woman on this planet.

[chibitiny]

I agree. She is so sweet and hot!

[sydbarret1973]

talking heads were on fire at this gig...along with pink floyd the heads are the greatest live band ever

[daddysquirrel]

what about the beatles? seriously, this shit is fun, a lot of fun, but it won't stand the test of time.

[vulgarvulcan]

the beatles were great but they stopped giving live stuff in '66, and the talking heads have stood the test of time, 1980 was 29 years ago

[daddysquirrel]

ok, you win.

[mfduregon]

You're right, this was back in the 80's and we're still talking about it... it obviously won't stand the test of time will it!!!

[DerKosmonaut1972]

Adrian Belew's electric guitar during the coda is eerie. David Byrne is probably the best ryhtm guitarist of his generation. I still don't know how he manufactured many of his extraordinary guitar sounds. Part 2 from the 1982 live album The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads has recordings from 1980-81 Remain In Light Tour. The 2004 CD release of it includes all the songs played during that tour. If you like this clip, then I suggest that you get the CD.

[johnmckinlay67]

@DerKosmonaut1972 Reading some of the comments on this song, and I couldn't agree with you more. I have the original "Name of this band.." on vinyl, and part 2 of this album just blows me away. It's the best live album I've ever heard , and that includes "Stop Making Sense", which kinda gave Talking Heads a new fanbase.The re-released CD is also on a par with the original vinyl. Well said my friend.

[evenjesuspooped]

sounds like the version off of 'the name of this band is...'. idk if it's the same version, but that album is the best live album of all time

[vulgarvulcan]

it probably is, they used a collection of songs from a variety of concerts

[maxmagnum74]

Adoro come Tina guarda Adrien durante l'assolo. Lo sguardo comunica: "ma come fa a tirar fuori sti suoni da un chitarra??!"

I love how Linda looks Adrien while he plays the guitar solo. She is probably thinking "how can this guy produce this sound from a guitar??!"

[squonkamatic]

Amazing version of this song. I like David's guitar playing on this one especially.

[distanza101]

Adrian "The Shaker" Belew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aliensatemybrain2]

the louder i listen to this the better it makes me feel

[iesus68]

from moment 2'24" look as an amazing song become heaven.

[reyesauteur]

why did i find these videos midnight before an exam? I'm staying up all night watching all of them. OMG I WISH I WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!!

[gellius]

Great live performance. The entire concert is one of the best I've ever seen - from any band. Goosebumps indeed!

[btrjr007]

i have a 48 minute concert dvd of the talking heads with this line up from germany 1980 show that is great. adrien belew wails on his guitar big time. video quality blows this away. if you have an interest please send me a message via youtube for information on this and many other hard to get cool concert dvd's (more)

[remain0in0light]

great. Saw them several times.

The buildup in the Studio version of this song, with the rifts building then kicking out, then again, then again, with Tina's baseline thumping away still is one of the unique/great rock/new wave tunes. Play it LOUD.

[truespaceball]

hey this video is pretty good

i like that shot of adrian belew shaking the shaker thing in front of his face. its almost like a surreal thing

another comment:

the beginning of this song sounds like franz ferdinand. i wonder if they developed their style based off of the first 30 seconds of this song. that would be pretty funny.

[gellius]

Hands down. This concert is amazing.

[nightclubdwight]

*drool*

Thank you for posting this.

Best band ever?

[aclockworkprple]

How can this song possibly be this good? When Frantz lays into his snare with that single stroke roll about 2/3 through and Belew comes in with that melody and Tinas bass line somehow sounds even better than it did 5 seconds before... goosebumps. Gah!

[mblasko]

thx for posting this new song! anything else from this concert?

[btrjr007]

i saw your comment on the talking heads live in rome clip and i thought you might have an interest in that i have a 48 minute concert dvd of the talking heads with this line up from germany 1980 that is great. video quality blows this away. if you have an interest please send me a message via youtube for information on this and many other hard to get cool concert dvd's (more)

[bringback2002]

what is the set list for that show?

[CyclingStartlists]

'77 Nijmegen (where I live), The Netherlands... Is that 30 years ago...??? Talking Heads, one of the greatest bands ever...

[jlm2117]

I went to school with Adrian's son. I have seen him first hand. The most amazing guitarist ever period. Most Under-known and under-estimated too.

[jbk1286]

oh man, i LOVE you for posting all of these. more songs about buildings and food is amazing.

[TheAmericanOne]

Priceless! THANKS

[undersolo]

Great to see this stuff up on the web!

[kevlarturbo]

really enjoy these clips thanks. lived in nyc when they first started.  they were so good.

[funjohnnie40]

great clip! Thanks for puttin' it out there. There are a couple of times where Tina looks facinated by Belew's playing...

[tpatgod2007]

and a couple of times when the cameraman looks facinated by Tinas leg!

:->

[birdiejoehoaks]

hottest bass player ever?

i say yes.

[cazoo]

she's quite beguiling here whereas normally she has that androgynous tom boy thing goin on.

[birdiejoehoaks]

i totally know what you're talking about.

its trippy.

[juddyydduj]

She is definately in the top ten.

Julie Slick gets my vote.

Coincidentally, she and her brother are Adrian Belew's backup band on his recent tour.

[hgrob66]

So cool

[dylanzeth]

Tina and Kim Deal are our winners there.
