I remember when this was aired. Sessions at West 54. One of the best music shows of cable TV. It was one of my references to world and experimental music back in the day.
Awesome!! Thank you so much! I saw this many years ago and been looking for this since then. Love the Balanescu Quartet! Great album, great arrangement. Specially like this song and 'Want Me', with Miranda Sex Garden. Thanks for sharing.
Can I find this or any of Balanescu's Kraftwerk covers anywhere... Please... I have this balanescu cover on CD but without David Byrne... I want it all... Brilliant !
I think you may need to learn a thing or two about Kraftwerk, Mr PoeticBullets. Their electronic music is incredible, was way ahead of the pack and has had a massive influence on music ever since, hence bands like Rammstein bringing it to your attention.
Madonna mia che meraviglia 🤍🥹 mi vengono i brividi
Mamma mia❤
Sembra che Byrne non abbia fatto altro che i Kraftwerk, anche quando interpretava "Once in a lifetime"! Meraviglioso.
Only just discovered this. Where have I been for the last 12 years. Anyway two of my favourite bands Kraftwerk and Mr Byrne. Love his dancing.
Hey you re so advanced. I m just at day 1.

Simply great. Byrne and the Balanescu Quartet. What a combination!
amazing
David byrne is simply brilliant ..so is the quartet
His dancing remembers me of a great italian actor Toto'. Brilliant
My favorite cover yet of this classic.
Very very nice, I love balanescu´s versions of kraftwerk´s songs and this with "talking heads" head was awesome !
i love this Kraftwerk song!! so simple yet brilliant!! the cover and arrangements here are awesome!!
No me canso de ver este video, ni de escuchar el disco completo "possessed"
Me encanta como le sacan el sonido a los instrumentos

Incredible performance! I don't remember this one! Distinctively Byrne! such a unique rendering! Wish that West 54th was still around.

her name is Christina Wheeler, and she's a very talented producer/performer in her own right.
Fantástico!
Ho i brividi..........!
Love it.
maravilha....
oh wow he also covered Kraftwerk awesome!
Her name is Claire Connors. For many years the second violin of the quartet.
Fantastic song, but fantastic singer and composer....
:D Wow, at first I was a bit sceptic... BUT: the choice of instruments, voice and performance do fit together ;-)
Tres cool!
Yes. And that originally Russian electroinstrument called "Teremin" makes it awesome*2:-)
pero qué buen baile!
Can I find this or any of Balanescu's Kraftwerk covers anywhere... Please... I have this balanescu cover on CD but without David Byrne... I want it all... Brilliant !
Looking for the model.. stumbled upon the addams family!
Oh my god!
Three myths together: Kraftwerk, Balanescu, David.

Da brivido....

Is the girl on keyboards the same girl who sings with david byrne on miss america? what is her name?
Those of us who knew, know where he was going. Don Strickand
Where?
rad
I thought it was fun and very edgy and almost classical, sorry I loved it.
Time when non classical music was also art…
Pretty awesome, but one of the violinists was having issues at the beginning
*theremin
strange kind of the Model kraft OF werk
It's well but I prefer the trilogy's version ;)
usually I like byrne and TH but this is underdevelopped culture !
Dommage pour le tempo, trop rapide à mon gout
@roadsideprophet2001 No shit, Sherlock
if mr byrne liked kraftwerk?. who knows?
WOW. What kind of drugs??
Sie sind klingende ausgezeichnet! Ach ja.
much better than the original
Time to stop surfing youtube.
The Theremin ruins this version of an otherwise cool song.
Unfortunately I agree
