Talking Heads / David Byrne - This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)

from movie - This Must Be The Place (2011)
Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me around
I feel numb, burn with a weak heart
Guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground, head in the sky
It's okay, I know nothing's wrong, nothing
I got plenty of time
You got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money, always for love
Cover up and say goodnight, say goodnight
Home, is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home, she lifted up her wings
I guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from the other
I find you, or you find me?
There was a time before we were born
If someone asks, this is where I'll be, where I'll be
We drift in and out
Sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm just an animal looking for a home
And share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead
Eyes that light up
Eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head

This is my favorite heads song. This was mine and my beautiful wife for 40 years song. Every word in this song hits the heart. My wife died last year and the words are so true.

There’s something in this song, something you don’t understand, but can’t get enough of it. i call it perfection.

I thank the parents of David Byrne for letting him be himself as a child and for the encouragement they gave him.

My wife and I were lucky enough to be at this Filming in Detroit. It was filmed and recorded live.

Am I crazy or is this the best song ever written?

[@livvo7948]

My favourite song of all time.

Hi Bob, my beautiful wife of 35 years went for a "routine surgery" and was rendered without speech or mobility due to admitted medical negligence. I am now her sole carer and although it is hard, I know that this still is the place. God bless you. Kevin xxx

Possibly the most beautiful David Byrne and the Talking Heads song.

[@PamCavanaugh-kx5qb]

David Byrne is my spirit animal always.

[@Helmkat]

The notes are whimsy...the words are full of the anxiety and bliss that envelopes the soul when love finds you...they swirl together in a dance that makes you want to cry. Sublime.

David Byrne is one of the finest groundbreaking original musicians of the last 50 years. He's humble magnificent and ever changing. He's the American Bowie. And god do I love him.❤

My daughter and I were extras in this scene. Filmed at The Magic Bag in Ferndale, Michigan. I lost count of how many takes, but we were there for over 6 hours, so somewhere around 30 takes...

Always emotionally well when he sings "love me till my heart stops, love me till I'm dead"

David Byrne on this song:

[@karelbellic8480]

Loved the way the crowd got in on the vocals. What I'd give to spend just a minute... There.

[@SparkMemes]

Every time I listen, I get an unnatural compulsion to stay up for numerous days straight fuelled only by coffee, making industrial quantities of Kimchi... Hauntingly beautiful...

[@OriginalGaucho]

This song is a total masterpiece. ❤

[@MichiganUSASingaporeSEAsia]

I was an actor in this part of the movie😉 the more we had to rehearsed I liked simply because the music was so enjoyable
