  • Amazing..Awesome..Africa ryth-funk-rock. What an inspire ..!!?..could be this place?!!!! David knows better...!!!

  • Why no Tina Weymouth?

  • @watchstrap1 - I always loved how Adrian Belew turned his guitar into a pinball machine, or any other machine, for that matter :)

  • I LOVE this song. Talking Heads were an absoulute paradigm shift in their time. Suddenly and without warning we all found ourselves on the dancefloor, which wasn't an obvious thing in 1980. House music didn't exist yet - actually I feel that the "Cross Eyed and Painless" album together with "My Life in the Bush of Ghost" (Byrne & Eno) sort of layed the foundation for it. 

  • This IS PUNK!!!

  • I wish I could see stuff like this again.I know there is all sorts of great music out there that I have never heard,but if it isn't GaGa or J-sean we'll never here it.Sad.How awesome these people are.Zappa too.He is soooooo missed.Just getting up on stage and playing because you love to do it is so rare these days.For all of you that do it cause you love it I raise my glass in a toast to you.Put some of your stuff on here so we can see it!

  • ::Still Waiting:: for the time period this song was written in...
