David Byrne always struck me as a guy coming from another planet or alternate universe. Love these 2
Starting to think the same lol-other worldly talent and personality...plus he barely seems to age! Hmmmmmm...
Him and Bowie.
Byrne is the pilot. Eno is the spaceship.
@@jessica5497 And now Bowie is gone. Time waits for no Man Who Fell to Earth.
he's a typical liberal, an idiot
"Song as an Affirmation for Humanity"
David Byrne, you beautiful man..
"Song Is An Affirmation For Humanity".....That's what I hear in David's music. Songs about building, community, people, coming, together, perpetual, party, forever.
It's hard to calculate how important these two are. But that aside I always love what they do and have pretty much everything they've ever done and I'm better for it.
Life in the Bush of Ghosts is an extraordinary piece of work.
I got used to hearing it in the early 80s because it was on one side of a C90 that had a favoirite album on the other side....
Soon it was the other album that was the "one you play to wind the tape back".
I have no idea why I like it so much, bit there is something exquisite about it.
On the other hand, how many times have you listened to _Everything That Happens Will Happen Today?_ I couldn't make it to the end.
I never imagined David Byrne would own a kitchen for some reason.
(grin) I couldn't him owning one for no reason whatsoever....

I don't think this is his house
Maximum Blaster He broke in? 🙃
@@mattycfox Lol I meant it's Eno's home
David Byrne, still cranking out excellent material. Great combo.
Brian in this interview sells himself way too short, though I understand his points, yet still love the enthusiasm. He's artistically quite malleable and allows the musical canvas to have no limits sonically. If there are limits, he's chose them to be just that. An extension different than what he often starts out with. For David, that's just great fodder to groove with. These are possibly the two musical artists I identify with the most. From Heads, Music for Airports, Before and After Science, to Bush of Ghosts. These are just some of life's simple pleasures".
Thank you, Gentleman.

Everything they have done together is amazing. Love these guys.
Everything they did together, they did together today
My Life in the Bush of Ghost is way more than just an album it is a prophetic vision.
99thDimension hear here
I will listen for this.
u should hear what Chris Frantz has to say in his book about what happened during the recording of My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Im not gonna tell ya! Youre gonna have to read it yerself!! Ok, ill tell u its in either chapter 42 or 43. Then again, its hard to believe any of Frants's recollections seeing as he says that Damon Albarn was the night barman at a hotel he was staying at in London in 1977. Albarn wouldve been about 8 years old.
"prophetic vision"
That is the best review ever written.
Kinda shocking to hear songs like "Regiment" and realize even that one song inspired a whole generation of electronic beat music.
Brilliant musicians & nice guys.. Didn't realise David Byrne was so nice ha
Brian Eno is a genius .. Thanks for this, love from UK x
I don't now what much is about, but thanks to these guys for making me feel like somethining when I feel like there's no something.
That was quite an interesting statement! Makes me think that you know more about much...
These giants aged very nicely, indeed. Eno is a genius and Byrne is a unique and original singer/dancer with a crazy, great sense of rhythm.
Byrne is genius as well
Thanks for sharing this. Have loved Eno and Byrne's work for decades. I was privileged to meet Hillman Curtis and fell in love with his work as well. RIP Hillman.👍👍👽
Cant say much but life without David Brian would be life without art
This guys are real artists always searching for something new.
I cannot begin to describe what a warm fuzzy feeling it gives me to discover that somehow (having just watched this) not only has David Byrne got a music studio work space somewhere steeped in the kind of homemade organised chaos & with an element almost of 'Just moved in / might move out again anytime' impermanency about it, that I'm extremely familiar with from my own sweet bolt hole ; but that despite him having been pretty much my alltime musical idol since I was a kid (now in my 50's) I discover from this, that somehow, by accident, we share pretty much the exact same aproach to coaxng songs to take on form out of the ether. It's genuinely made my f*cking day that !
Love these guys! Thank you Brian Eno!! just for being you!
Thank you David Byrne for working with Brian Eno on " My Life in the Bush of Ghosts " !!!! One of my most favorite albums!!! Cant wait to get ahold of this newest material!!!!! 😎👍
I love the way David describes his writing process of fitting lyrics and moods to the music, exactly my method too, sometimes you just dont know the lyrical theme until you accidentally string together a sentence that makes some sort of sense when you listen back, very cool video
I see both in a new light after reading Remain in Love.
THIS IS MY BLISS thank you for sharing this part of your process. I am more than inspired. I want to be in a room with you both.
I want David Byrne asmr
Lmao
This just proves that music that is 'thought out' and all of the details of each track considered ,can still feel so unplanned and satisfyingly emotive when listening
A really beautiful album
David has motion, a throughput, but rarely has context or a landscape to put them in. Eno provides that. Eno is a catalyst for quite a few musicians.
He also has a list of cats.
Hi, I'm Brian Eno - wouldn't it be cool to say that and know that you were..?
I imagine it would be cool to say "Hi, I'm Nick Adams", and like; be Nick Adams.
And eirik løvhaug too! And all !
It's much cooler to say I'm Nick Adams.
He looks really proud of his varying textures 😊
I try to restrain myself whenever the urge strikes me to say "I'm Nick Adams, or maybe Brian Eno".
David looks like a proud dad in those last couple of shots, taking pictures of his son Brian Eno and making Brian take one of him too
I don't get all the hate in this comment section for either of the albums they've made together. Both Bush of Ghosts and Everything That Happens are great albums, regardless of genre.
Too right, Connor. 'Bush' is one of the great albums...the TH's stuff was brilliant and Roxy's only peer was Bowie.
True that it's the internet and things _can_ get mad on here but it's also easy to misinterpret things without any tone of voice to go by.
Haters gonna hate, Trolls gonna troll, Lovers gonna love and Artist gonna keep creating
@@garymorgan3314 U2's best albums were also produced by Eno and he also helped out with Slowdive's Souvlaki. Also can't forget his own solo material from the 70s which was brilliant as well
Yes ‘Ghosts’ is especially brilliant, Eric Satie would have been proud of some of those tracks. As to the hate here, well Eno is very far from hateful... it’s trolling, just feel sorry for those who don’t get it.
Damn that television, what a bad picture.
What a great interview. Wonderful insights from Two Music Icons. It was especially great to learn about their creative process and collaboration. Very inspiring.
They are both so brilliant.
"My life in the bush of ghosts" Epico!
Two monsters, thanks to both of them for making my life greater.
Just saying this here David Byrne and Brian Eno with “My Life In A Bush Of Ghosts” and beyond literally unspoken genius of music and without them I would have never kept trying to make music
I loved this record.
one of my favorite videos on youtube. thank you guys for existing and changing my life
Absolutely love the different versions of the songs from the album "Everything That Happens.." playing in the background. Very cool !!
Playfulness, chance and playing with the ugly is important in pushing the envelope of art. Bravo!
The first album they did was highly anticipated here. Purchased upon release. Not much surprises around here, until I caught wind that this album was released. It's a perfect album.
This is the top level.
These guys are the best. Funny how the albums Eno produced are on the list of best ever recorded. Even though subjective, can carry merit.
Remain in Light had some killer tracks that could stand up to anything!
Those two men have made the album that is my absolute favorite. Sometimes their geniusness shines through, but only slight.
I enjoyed that. Criminally short tho lol. Two of my fave musicians and creative minds there. is there more to this vid to be found...or is it only a short film?
this is awesome! I get excited exactly like Brian when showing music to friends haha. David is a bit more enigmatic in this B-)
Two legendary electricians!
Two legendary EGOMANIACS
"..affirmation of humanity, something along those lines."
Kridian01 .....❤
I just know these two great artists because of David Bowie, and I thank him for that. Thanks David 💙
Bowie was a controlled puppet, these 2 arent
@@karlstrausside107 controlled puppet...sure lol by who? Sorry but dont think so,If you dont like him is your choice...but that just doesn't make sense.
@@jessica5497 I dont care what you think, I know 😁👍
@@jessica5497 I think he stopped making sense a long time ago. Unfortunately he remains in light.
@@karlstrausside107 I don't care what you think you know. You don't know it.
I want David Byrne's music collection!!
He wants it also.
not being ten years old anymore..and always looking for inspiring music..i love the album..melodically,stylisticly (sic) and content.
Interesting coincidence that David Byrne lived for a good part of his youth in Hamilton,Ontario and Brian spent severl years in Hamilton as well and collaborated with a fellow Hamiltonian Daniel Lanois who became his production partner for many succesful musical creations
thank from the honest ...relaxed interview with two artist I admire
Two of my favorites. All the way back to Eno and Fripp and the Lamb lies down on Broadway. Eno was a part of.
A beautiful capturing of brilliance. ❤
I appreciate the "feelings" these artists focus upon creating and sharing for what seems to be emotional fun while expressing a variety of ways they are seeking after more beauty and to influence the inner ears or whoever listens. I love the way the video get the viewer 'there'... with the artist in each of us. Creativity at its best. Great job!
an amazing example of what will happen when two artists meet.
RIP Hillman Curtis. Gone way too soon.
I know Brian would never do it, but I'd love to see them tour together.
Just a glimpse really into the creative process. Those allusions to the 'I don't know somehow it just comes to me. It works itself out' That is a reference to an unfathomable abyss of intelligence and creativity. Probably the most fascinating thing about Artists like David and Brian. You know I'm sorry I drifted away from David Byrne and his music. Somewhere after his collaborations with Latin sounds or was it the 'Knee Plays' I can't remember. Fun to catch up on the missing years with interviews like this.
💛💛💛💛 much love for this amazing ppl
Brilliant and thanks for sharing.
David Always Looks So Spaced Out. Almost As If He Doesn’t Quite Know Whats Going On & He’s Just Winging It. 😄
The very BEST Music produced in this century and NO ONE even knows that it exists! 'Idiocracy' folks! It's where we live, it's who we are.
It's hard to quantify what these two have meant to me - both together, and working separately (Eno especially). The thing with Eno is that his back catalogue is so rich, you ca nnever exhaust it.
Super music, super photography, and at last an interviewer of eno who understands enough about art to know there is nothing to know. And all for free.
David, once again the connection continues. I just listened to this album. The song, My Big Nurse is an uncanny name since when I was a visual artist, my boss and old friend at the time was married to a nurse (who was quite overweight) and who made a decent salary and allowed him to remain in the profession until where he was making enough to support a family. (Sears didn't pay us much in those days) But when I left to give birth, he became quite angry with me and threatened "If you leave, I will blackball you" I believe he did do just that since every job I had after that ended with me being dismissed for being "too slow" And the reasons I was let go were very minor, like cursing on the job, or talking about my supervisor behind her back. I think the seriousness to my psyche bears investigation as it ended up costing me money as I look back on it now.
Thank two you♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️
LEGENDARY...ready for more of you two together.
i very much enjoyed all 8 pixels of this video
Well done.What a trip!!
I saw David Byrne at the Pageant, an intimate venue, and it was really fun. He's awesome. Why did Brian Eno have to leave the Talking Heads so soon?
ummm brian was never in the talking heads
he just produced their best albums.
if by 'keyboards' you mean synthesizer than probably, but he was NEVER a part of the band, he just liked to contribute stuff sometimes because he was their producer.
Brian Eno also toured with the talking heads.
I believe that you can see him in the movie
Stop making sense
@@jamesfarrell8339 I don't think so
Really wonderful dolly shots at the seven minute mark.
help me somebody!
Only if you're the type of person God wanted you to be.
both two amazing artists...and 'feel my stuff' is an exceptionally brilliant tune. great stuff!
Nice work Joseph. Love the interview and some of your photos have a Lynchian quality as does DB's music!
Those Two are a Hoot!
Love it!
This was way too short!
My life in the bush of ghosts is a great album - very cutting edge at the time and must have been a blast to create.
corporatist artist how now before and afther years i love it iam a real fan
"I feel my stuff" is a masterpiece for me, even though in moments it goes slightly beyond David's capabilities as a singer.
two great sensitive brains
This is a really super record and is of the same high standard as the only two other of their collaborations that I am aware of: My life in the Bush of Ghosts and Remain in light. There isn't one track that isn't fucking great.
It's so touching as well because there is a touch of nostalgia and regret running all the way through which perhaps alludes to their previous work together and the length of time since they last worked together. I'll buy it as soon as I can get my prepaid card charged up. The dimming of the lights LOL Make sure the door doesn't hit you on the way out.
Fear of Music and to a much lesser degree, Songs About Buildings and Food had treatments by Eno as he was the producer on those albums
so creative and positive, lovely human beings
Gorgeous album
Love Davids Shoes & Watch.
This was great to watch.
amazing!!!
I love these two gentlemen, though this documentary was filmed and edited really strangely.
Unforgettable...
On est frappé par leur beauté, puis s'installe l'essentiel : l'esprit, très fort , trés libre, trés vivant
Assez merveilleux en fait...l'air palpite au gré de leurs pensées.
Nice to hear these guys talk about their work and not have some interviewer firing out inane questions.
thanks for sharing
brilliant, thanks.
When Eno said ' sounds like someone stuck their finger
in it' sounds like Fripp?
I like the enthusiasm and play between the two great musicians,. But the photographer is completelyfawning over them.
they do'nt age,...how cool if they just never die at all!
Great music.
Great track!Holly cow.
both the music and the camera work in this have something in common, its just a bunch of style and no substance. im happy to see that these guys are still doing music especially David Byrne (im a talking heads fan). its not my kind of thing but if you enjoy it then more power to you
TWO GENIUS
byrne *has* hair
eno *doesn't*
you decide
That "poster" of The Economist "Better ways to attack Bush" just cracked me up
My life with the ghost of Bush lol
thanks to you!
