1% of viewers gave this a thumbs-up 😟. This is phenomenal. Heads with Belew is one the greatest outfits in my lifetime (pretty brittle now in 7th decade).
As a Scotsman still can't believe he had the mind he had coming from Dumbarton in that era. Effing genius. Jesus strike me down if I'm lying. I wore out the VHS tape of Stop Making Sense I had. It blew a 17 year old head off!
Well I thought the Rome 1980 version was the best but....... And not just because Tina finally showed a smile! I have trouble imagining the high it must have been playing in this band.
I was at this show and am suprised what a mark it made on me to this day.Also,there were more black people on stage than in the audience.Trust me on that.
Amazing raw footage of how this song was formed and has taken on its timeless persona/i.d. in this current day cult following . One of their greatest songs . Takes on so many other meanings due to the layered instrumentals .
Talking heads r ma fav band when they split a wis sad . Ma first ever gig was David Byrne at the Glasgow barrowland nov 1989 .n ppl were doing the congo doon sauchiehall st at 1 in the morning . He's Scottish btw n wan of oor ane
Spud from train spotting on lead...Talking Heads should have been beamed live from the moon across the universe so a three toed wibble could have wobbled in the Orion Nebula :0)
Best one-chord song in history.
The Fact That I'm Still Waiting. - Crosseyed & Painless - 1980
talking heads is a state of mind, and i have a summer house there.
Adrian Belew. Fantastic Guitarist.
George Reagan I didn't know he played with them!
Where did you think theses guitar scream was coming from ? Its like a signature for him, look out it did a lot with kcrimson
OHHHHH GOD.
That opening jam/transition was oh so heavy
The ultimate “ jam band “ on this one 😂
You have to love 💕 Nona Hendryx’s vocals .
That beat puts you in a damn trance. it's fantastic. The interplay between the guitars, keyboards & percussion.
The funk is powerful on this one.

My favorite live version of this, can’t beat the line up.
Always nice seeing Adrian Belew doing his guitar wizardry
I was at this show.
Sooooo FUNKY. One of my favorite Talking Heads song.
As simple as it is, I love their guitar work.
They've got Belew on stage. enough said.
this is so very good it makes me restless with joy.
such a unique band...LOVE LOVE LOVE this!
their best line up ever
Astonishing. I saw them a couple of years after this. They were magnificent, but didn’t have this wonderful raw energy
or Adrian Belew on guitar. Bowie, Zappa, King Crimson, Vai, to nam a few
So cool to see this pre STMS vid. These guys rehearsed and practiced like the Beatles. That's why they were soooooo good.
That's just plain bad ass. What a great line up, might even be better than the Rome video.
There you hear belew far better, good
I thank the Heavens for getting to spend several weeks working with Bernie Worrell in the early 90's.
That is amazing, how was it?
Tina, oh my, your Bass lines are so hot you are setting my soul on fire.
Bruh lol
Well I thought the Rome 1980 version was the best but.......
And not just because Tina finally showed a smile!
I have trouble imagining the high it must have been playing in this band.
Bernie Worrell snorted all the high that was in the arena LOL
The best and hardest to categories band ever! Fronted by the most talented Scotsman, DB
Daniel Jackson
Proto New Wave Polyrhythmic Pop Rock Band
Cheers 🥂🍻

What a show to see. I think if I could choose any tour ever to attend it would be this one. Cheers Darryl!
The best band ever!
I'm all over this, it's amazing!!
This really blew me away. Total fucking jam session that could have continued for hours
Sorry, that's just awesome, never seen that footage before x
Belew…Tina ❤️
este tema es alucinogeno marihuanezco increible los tolkin fueron la mejor musica de todos los tiempos de argentina carajo
Stunningly hot groove. Twin bassists. Pretty cool.
thank you for sharing your talent. your gift of music to the world is appreciated. "get in the funk"
See it in Byrne's eyes...this talking heads band had become beautiful and giant...his ego was humbled.
others times....other places.....thankyou Blunt!
groovin along so niceee. this is great
Dig on the early footage ! Thanks for posting !
Amazing raw footage of how this song was formed and has taken on its timeless persona/i.d. in this current day cult following . One of their greatest songs . Takes on so many other meanings due to the layered instrumentals .
Sweet, my man, what a mix.
Era proprio un bel gruppo BRAVO
wow Tina looks amazing in this.
puts you in a trance ... Afro King Sunny Ade beat, new wave, avant-garde, light years ahead of their time
OMG I LOVE it
Reminds me a lot of Live/Evil or Cellar Door era Miles Davis (and that's a good thing).
Ohhhh yeah!
Awesome
outrageous...
Agree with this assessment.
Favourite version after Stop Making Sense
Truely, the STANDARD by which others are compared; say no more.
Talking heads r ma fav band when they split a wis sad . Ma first ever gig was David Byrne at the Glasgow barrowland nov 1989 .n ppl were doing the congo doon sauchiehall st at 1 in the morning . He's Scottish btw n wan of oor ane
Euphoric
Guys These Love I! Song Awesome An What! God My Oh
is that Adrian Belew with them?
+Max Aronow Yep!
Checkout live in Rome , same year, 1980. It will blow your socks off. Esp. second part, like Born Under Punches and Great Curve.
Wow
Whoa. Facts don't do what I want them to...
Belew reminds me of that (amazing) male dancer from Wim Wender's movie PINA (2011).
King Crimson front man in there too... idk his name... @1:55 and @2:44 else where... : )
Tina is looking super-hot!
Crunchy Jamming
Adrian!
Check out Phish's version of this...
kikkkkkk zeeee azzzzzzz bendddddd
cross-pain and faceless
Bm....and that's it....but don't fool yourself thinking just simply playing Bm will get you the sound here. This is a very difficult song to master
:)
Realize how many hours sound check will spend
lionguy200....whatever you say there...........I ALWAYS give cred to someone with a KISS avatar!
Adrian Belew.
Spud from train spotting on lead...Talking Heads should have been beamed live from the moon across the universe so a three toed wibble could have wobbled in the Orion Nebula :0)
Adrian Belew on lead guitar!!!!
That guy was Byrne to be on stage.
Underrated
More cowbell
ur both wrong adrain on guitar and tina & busta on bass alex weir is not even with talking heads yet
Wow 666 like damn
john barret take a seat
Tina is smokin hot.....
no, Tina is on bass and Alex Weir no slouch either on back up.
Wouldn’t Tina’s bass have sufficed? I think I read David somewhere saying they went overboard with extra musicians on this tour…
@@benjaminhatcher9846 Actually it was Tina who said that when Byrne added all the extras to the band.
@@daveanderson718 Thanks for info
yo arf arf yo
i a lone rhino
Not much better than this here.
If Dave wasn't doing cocaine, I was.
I love Phish, and it's good, but seventeen minutes is a little excessive for a cover.
now 7 thumbs down on this. who are these people?!
they press the wrong button by mystake?
John Barrett "who are these people?!"
I cant imagine, even uncle Adolf was a Talking Head...Head :D
lada gaga and jusin bieber is way way much better
That is such a disgusting thought..... you enjoy music from Disney channel I bet...
