    The black keyboardist is Bernie Worrell, the genius behind the sound of Parliament Funkadelic and George Clinton...

    When he raises up from his limbo pose and starts singing, "Time isn't holding us, time isn't after us!" The cinematography showing the backup singers, also rising from a limbo position, is majestic and heart-fluttering! I don't know why but it levels me.

    7:30 Best shot in any concert movie I've ever seen. Saw this in the theatre when it came out. Blew my mind.

    In America Stop Making Sense is playing for its 40th anniversary. Finally bought tickets to take my husband tomorrow night. So lucky that this band was a part of the soundtrack of my early teen years. I can see the preacher aspect in this performance. For Little Creatures (1985 album) they used folk artist the Reverend Howard Finster. His covers also include REM. At the time I hated living in the bible belt (Ohio born and raised) - but his art wasn't a total turnoff - it kind of occupied a space between appealing and uncomfortable which is sometimes a good place to be. In the late 80s the Toledo Museum of Art had an exhibition of his work including the album artwork for Talking Heads and REM, but he also painted on television sets, chairs, etc. It never occured to me when seeing Once In A Lifetime as a kid on MTV that there is a evangelical preacher aspect to his delivery in this song. Another Talking Heads album is even called Speaking In Tongues - so I guess all of this isn't coincidental. GREAT REACTION. Love your channel.

      Sounds like you don’t know Byrne’s brilliant album collaboration with Brian Eno “My Life in the Bush of Ghosts” where they use others’ recorded voices as the vocals on songs, including at least one preacher. It’s great you’ll love it.

    I still have my original “Stop Making Sense” promo poster when I worked in the record shop for its release. It’s framed and in pride of place. They were one of my go to bands when we each took turns to play our own music during a stock take in the shop. It was a great opportunity to expand your musical taste hearing albums from others choices. Happy times

    The concert movie Stop Making Sense shows the progression of Talking Heads in both people and the music itself... By the time they get to the Remain In Light record, the stage is full and so is the music...

    David Byrne was was trying to sound like a preacher. His vocals were inspired by preachers delivering sermons, with lyrics addressing existential crisis and the unconscious.

    Likely from a movie soundtrack.
    There’s a video on UA-cam of the entire Heads concert on the tour a couple years before Stop Making Sense - it’s excellent, and cool for band history: this is the Remain in Light tour, the album was a revolutionary smash. Their first tour having morphed from minimalism to many guest musicians and fusing musical genres:
    “HEADS ROME 1980”

    Like Bryan Ferry/
    Roxy Music, and
    Elvis Costello, Talking Heads are in the rare genre of "Art Rock".
    Sophisticated music.

    I said on your first reaction that you'd know this track. It's one of those that has always been there lurking in musical landscape and pops up quite a lot in small snippets.
    Have a look at the iconic music video for it, you might have even seen some of that too.

    Talking Heads was just an amazing band. I really recommend the movie True Stories, directed by David Byrne. It is a hard movie to describe, but the story revolves around Byrne visiting a small Texas town during their sesquicentennial celebration. They put on a talent show, and the actors sang all the songs. The Talking Heads album True Stories was the band's version of the music from the movie.
