Psycho Killer. Once in a Lifetime. Burning Down The House.

Who made all of these classics? Why, The Talking Heads of course!

What do you all want to know?

YAS. Psycho Killer is a bop. I learned about them in my music of New York class at NYU. They're p cool!

I know nothing about The Talking Heads; educate me.

What's so great 'bout em?

[StonedSoulPicnic]

This song has been stuck in my head for the past few days.

Their debut album is very infectious.

The only Talking Heads album I've listened to/own is More Songs About Buildings And Food. Perched for an education.

Fun Fact: Many assumed Psycho Killer was about David Berkowitz - the Son of Sam. (If you don't know, he went on a notorious killing spree in NYC in the summer of 1977 - Spike Lee made a movie about it!)

It wasn't - David Byrne had written the song four years earlier!

But man, what an influential track, right? The "fa-fa-fa-fa-fa" bit is essentially Rivers Cuomo his entire career.

God bless New Wave.

"Road to Nowhere" still gets me in the feels tbqh. I dunno why, but the way it builds up just gets to me

The Great Curve is the catchiest song of all time. Ive been listening to this song for 6 hours on loop. Help me.



Unbelievable, simply unbelievable. The greatest pop song ever. Like Uptown Funk on steroids.

I mean, that rhythm. You can devise like 10 million choreographed dances to it.

edit: Damnit I cant embed it. Whatever, song is too good, link time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3N5qQrGSuJ4

[maddisonbutt]

YASS Talking Heads! I've been listening to Remain in Light on repeat this whole year and it's already one of my favourite album of all time... the lyrics in Seen and Not Seen alone...

Edit: they're not 'The Talking Heads' just 'Talking Heads' I believe
