Summary:
This is a killer performance all around. This is arguably the greatest Talking Heads lineup (with King Crimson guitarist Adrian Belew in scorching form!) and most of the "Remain In Light" material performed when it was groundbreaking and new. Fans should love every second of this incredible performance.
Just the fact the dude is playing the whole synth part by hand...not a loop
I know I'm a bit surprised aha
Bernie Worrell of P-Funk.... we lost him recently. died because he was unable to afford his medical care. welcome to the united states....
Youd think it was sequenced....nope!....a real hand made syth bed:)
If im not mistaken, his name was Bernie Worrell
I dig the rolling 3-over-4 pattern.
He is doing it unconsciously, which is quite fitting, given the songs primary theme
2:12 Feel the Bern "Berrnie Worrell" keyboardist for Parliament / Funkadelic
R.I.P.
The best part? He's doing all that manually. In the pocket. NO SEQUENCER.
that's talent.
Supergroovalistic !!!
And you may find yourself watching this in 2020~ and you may say to yourself; “My God where has the time gone!”
david krent sooo freaking true.
Same as it ever was.
Too bleeding right 😂
best comment !
Happy to give this # 100 thumbs up. "Time isn't holding us. Time isn't after us."
David Byrne is unique talent.❤
His body shape, general appearance, and movements coupled with his creative talents definitely makes him unique and very appropriate for the period.
You may ask yourself why I was so lucky to live through a lifetime of days go by.
You may say to yourself, what a fukn lineup of great players, once in a lifetime.
Great reply George.....
Well said George
you can see the sense of greatness inside these lyrics, it just gets bigger and bigger until it reaches a state of intemporal apocalipse. it was big in 1980 and it's still as huge and relevant in 2020, truly impressive
Same As It Ever Was..
In-F’ing- Deed!
I love them but youre an idiot
same as it ever was
Do you understand what he is saying..?
Bernie Worrell on keys Adrian Belew on guitar just made this much more of an epic monstrosity.
Those are hosses.
Bernie Worrell. A legend. Love his keyboard work here among his other work. #RIP
Im feelin' the "Bern"
To the lost 🍻
That song will never be out of style ...NEVEr!!!!!
In many ways Byrne is a musical Sheldon. Just as brilliant. Just as awkward. Just as beautiful.
This song makes me feel so good. It has since the first time I heard it. I expect it always will.
Rarely does a song achieve such magic through the feeling, energy and passion of singers not just transcending, but utterly trivializing technique. Like a lot of the alternative music scene and masterpiece performances at the time, music focused on certain kinds of poetry and poetic effects, pushing technique far into the background, and this gives the music incredible power. When they sing the repeating refrain, several are off key, yet anchored by Byrne, one or two others in the group, and that luscious sounding but simple bass. The resulting dissonance and spontaneous variation gives it incredible living energy and naturalness that would be ruined by polished singing. I can't get enough of this sound, just plain ADDICTED. Their youth and energy captured at that moment is forever, thanks to this recording. Utterly CLASSIC and TIMELESS!!!
This is dope!! Bernie Worrell from Funkadelic on keys and the bass player Busta Jones is tight too!!
Adrian on guitar.
@@MilesBellas He's dope too!! :)
@@MilesBellas How did he play a guitar down by his knees, though?
@@stevekastenbaum6678
Yes !!!!
It moved up in later years in defiance of gravity !!!!
My favorite lineup of this band.
To be alive is a fine thing. It is the finest thing in the world, though hazardous. It is a unique thing. It happens only once in a lifetime. To be alive, to know consciously that you are alive, and to relish that knowledge - this is a kind of magic. Or it may be a kind of madness, exhilarating but harmless....Don't waste your time to make new dreams. but waste it to make one of your lifetime dream, come true....
Well said!
Touchè
petros pappas Thank you.....
you have said the word! Buddha word :)
Wow. Just, wow.
The B-52s played 3 days after this...I was 6 months old. The true golden days for the Capitol Theatre.
I think it was February, I don't know. I just know for sure it was the same year though, but The Clash also performed there. Golden days indeed
1 of those rare songs that has everything 👍
" and I say to myself" .....as I approach the middle of my 5th decade on this planet, this song makes more sense than it did when I first heard it in school! "into the silent waters"....."how did I get here?" ........"and as the days go by"
That brother playing the keyboards is the real deal
That is Bernie Worrell from Parliament-Funkadelic.
Damn. Hard to decide which one is better - this one or the SNL performance on 2020-02-29 ... BRAVO!
It's definitely good to see him freed from behind the guitar. (Why keep playing guitar after you add Adrian Below to your band?). IMO, that opens up a whole new dimension to his weirdness when he's running around on stage acting out his existential angst.
Just came from there. Great!
I liked that, in the SNL performance, he acted like a motivational speaker. That matched the lyrics perfectly.
This one is much better. It is the real thing after all. The SNL version is him trying to recreate magic that's already lost now. I personally think the Stop Making Sense version is the best
@@jaspergillgannon4991 yep! STOP MAKING SENSE!
MILES Ahead of Anything going on right now! 42+ years Later...Still!
this performance is the future i'm still waiting on.
Great drumming. Solid as a rock.
Great performance!!!
You can feel how fresh this was. They’re digging it themselves;
I think this is better than the SMS version.
Anyone brought here by David Byrne’s #SNL performance on 2/29/20? Sounds good as ever.
His voice is stronger here - more like the one heard on the record. But SNL performance at 67 years old was amazing.
You betcha. Wow.
you tube removed the snl video 2020 performance b/c of copyright i think
The growth of this band's music from their formation in 1975 to the time of this 1980 performance is extraordinary.
This song never bores me it is like a forever hit !!! ❤️❤️
for me this Capitol theater show is the zenith - this lineup and performance.
Bernie Worrell. A legend. Love his keyboard work here among his other work. #RIP
Masterful truly Superb.
THIS IS SO TALENTED AND WONDERFUL MUSIC 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶 ITS VERY VERY PEACEFUL 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
What a perfect amalgamation of musicians. The sweet sweet ways of the universe...☺️🥰
My favorite song by this group I remember it in 1983 the official video was awesome I'm jealous over David Byrne he was great over this one song that's powerful good job david
Damn, almost 40 years ago. Where does it go...
I grew up in the 80's but somehow didn't get into this band back then. Now I find myself blown away by them. I mean I heard the hits and MTV made sure WIld Wild Life and Burning Down the House got heard a lot. But at that time I was to young and stupid to appreciate these guys.
It's okay. When the student is ready, the teacher shall appear
I have seen life in athens summer 1983 david burne crazy musician talking heads out of this world
So much better than the official video! Raw talent. ☺️
Here it is 2023 same as it ever was.
I'm writing this in 2046, and feel the same way.
I didn't 'discover' them until the 1990's. Loving this song still in 2021; Bernie Worrell on keyboards is manic.
Time isn’t holding us 💫
Time isn’t after us.
love this song i can listen to it all day (: amazing band
Taking me back, THIS IS HOW IT WAS...
Wonderful time, much fun and many things to do without dangers like we have today...
GREAT music THAT will be remembered like "muscle cars" and this particular era.
Gawd, seems so long ago !
SO BADLY NEEDED AGAIN 😢...
Great performance!!!
2:03 is by far the best part.
Best live version ever!!!!
I'm not a Talking Heads fan but I cant help but admire how way ahead of its time this song is.
Never ever tired of this....pure genious
I ve seen them twice. I miss the 80s
Bernie is amazing in this. All so cool.
Wow. What a great concert. They look like they're having a lot of fun up there.
legend says, the keyboard dude is still playing that riff
I'm kind of a jazz snob, have not really got into rock but have listened to some. I would have to say I LOVE THIS!
I love it too and I find a lot of Miles' "On the corner" vibes
Wow. What a great concert. They look like they're having a lot of fun up there.
How come Tina is not playing the bass? and who is?
Simply awesome... Love the talking heads!!!
"And you may ask yourself how do I work this" the line here is used by myself daily from now on! Thanks David
2:03 is by far the best part.
Andrew Heakes lol
🎼🎶🎶🎶🎤 for me the best "once in a life time"👑 great times the 80's Talking Heads my biggest 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wow, what a performance.
Timeless truth. Letting the days go by.
The message in this song comes thru here way more than it does in the "hit" version.
You may say to yourself, no auto tune or anything else added! Just real musicians. I love it😂
Timeless Groove.... Music for your soul.... Look how hard everyone is feeling it...
I knew Talking Heads had to have some black musicians, this song has that funk groove to it, this band is just bad-ass!
Can you believe one web site voted Talking Heads the best artist of the 1980's? And rightfully so🤩.
Better than the official video. Just brilliant live footage.🎼✌️❤️
Timeless and thank you for a great upload.
Simply awesome... Love the talking heads!!!
Aaaaaaaaaah speechless. Except for unforgettable.
I like all the singers impact
Sublime...
Same as it eva was.......

You can tell yourself this version rocks!!!

Pure greatness.

Wow!
Why is it that bands like Talking Heads, Smashing Pumpkins, REM, Alice In Chains, and Blind Mellon sound fresh from the day they come together until the day the world ends.
You my friend have discovered the magic of alternative music
it was a whole different time AND music back then....awesome!!!!
and The Smiths!
Mr D. whats the difference between back then and now?
Cause it’s original in its time . Not just a clone of everything else.
Anyone brought here by David Byrne’s #SNL performance on 2/29/20? Sounds good as ever.
U may ask urself what kind of acid am i trippin on ? Ah, the good ole days, same as it over was !
2:03 is by far the best part.
Absolutely brilliant!!!!
Their greatest tour.
Does everyone realize that there is absolutely NO rhythmic modulation in this song, from start to finish. It is one giant philosophical meme sung over one chord. Amazing!
Watch his live version on Austin City Limits . Amazing.
nice and jagged funkiness with a manic edge!!
Talking Heads is my all time fav band an Once in a Lifetime is my all time fav song ever! I love the music video so much I've seen it so many times I know all the dance moves by ❤. I can even do them.
I love that you can do the dance moves :)
@@robbiarohac3848 Thanks! I just can't help it whenever I hear that song I start dancing like David Bryne does in the music video.
Great share!!! This would be unforgettable if I had been there.
2022 brudda. Still watching chur
