    “Life during Wartime” got extensive FM radio airplay in Chicago circa 1977. That’s how I discovered Talking Heads. My god what an oeuvre he has. They don’t make ’em like that anymore.

    The best way to find growth stocks, key features to keep in mind is as follows: 1. Ensure gross margins are greater than 50% 2. Ensure P/E ratio is less than 100 3. Buy companies that are PROFITABLE, very important irrespective of sector. 4. Debt to equity ratio is less than 30% 5. Current ratio is above I 6. and a Float under 100 million One stock that fits the bill is FLGT (Fulgent)

    I like that David never speaks ill of his ex bandmates in public. He talks about Talking Heads as something he did in the past with his friends of the time and that’s it. No need for nostalgia and no need for reunion.

    “How Music Works” by David Byrne – please if you like this stuff read this book. You can hear this voice in that book which is trippy for me because I read the book first.

    • Elra Beechum

      February 19, 2022 at 5:27 pm

      Haha I read a lot of it aloud doing my best Byrne impression and that somehow made it really come alive. It’s nice that his authorial ‘voice’ is consistent with his physical one.

    “Psycho Killer”, released in 1977, was the first Talking Heads track to make it into Billboard’s Top 100, though it only made it to #92.

    • Jeffrey Slotnikoff

      February 21, 2022 at 7:04 pm

      @GorgeousRoddyChrome Look it up for yourself… but, since I was personally around at the time (I’m 66), and I still retain some memories of that period in time, I’m pretty confident that the facts and the truth are brother and sister in this instance.

    • GorgeousRoddyChrome

      February 21, 2022 at 7:17 pm

      @Jeffrey Slotnikoff
      My comment was a tongue-in-cheek joke. Hence, the lyrics quote.
      I was around then too. Wonderful times. Saw them live before the “big band” days with just the 4 of them.
      Cheers!

    • Jeffrey Slotnikoff

      February 21, 2022 at 7:38 pm

      @GorgeousRoddyChrome Didn’t get the lyrics quote because, and I confess this with a bit of red in my face, I was not that big of a Talking Heads fan. I had a couple of their albums, but my any other familiarity with their music was through FM radio.. way, way, way back when.

    Interestingly, he didn’t answer the question “Why he doesn’t reunite Talking Heads”. He only explained why they split up, which is a different matter.

    An absolute unheralded genius this man is. People don’t talk about his contribution to mainstream punk funk and synth inspired music enough. His musical is pure performance art magic

    The David Bowie question is quite possibly a result of the song “DJ” on Lodger? Bowie said he tried to sound like David Byrne on that song.

    These are legitimately becoming really important historical documents. Like think of what a treasure trove it would be if JFK, or MLK, or Orson Welles, etc… had interviews like this where they just answered questions about themselves. It’s cool we get to witness this.

    Is David Byrne college educated and holds several degrees? that’s what I heard. probably my favorite song is “Wild Wild Life” followed by “Burning Down the house” and there are so many more. I remember the big suit it had really big shoulders. and it made the optical illusion that his head looked small. The Talking Heads were brilliant no doubt.

    February 24, 2022 at 9:30 pm

    He pathologically honest and precise. I would love to watch an espionage movie starring David Byrne as a spy who can’t lie. He could inadvertently start an international crisis which culminates in a World Dance Off. Cameos with Albert Brooks etc.

    I remember as a kid jamming out to a few different Talking Heads CDs that my parents had. They were some of my favorite albums in their collection, but I never went back and really listened to them after my teen years. I think it’s long overdue for me to put on a good set of headphones and dive into his music more in depth.

  149. CapAnson12345

    Ok, two: if that band on SNL was *not* the Heads, they were still damned good, and I was *so* glad he went for the hit on at least one song.

    I don’t like Byrne and the Heads much but I have the utmost respect for their talent. Every time I see them it makes me sad because a sadly-departed friend of mine was a huge fan and wrote a book about them. Rest in peace my friend.

    I grew up really loving blues and gospel, which of course led me to rock n roll (awww snap) and really wasn’t that much into pop,mainly because I guess rock, r&b, and soul seemed more “authentic” to me as a young man, whatever that means..when I saw “stop making sense” and started really listening to talking heads, I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the originality and the coolness of someone so unafraid of their…awkwardness? idk what…just unafraid to be themselves…so cool..such a huge DB fan, talking heads and solo. What an artist

  217. David Carpenter

    February 27, 2022 at 3:32 pm

    This reminds me of the record Stop Making Sense. The back cover (or possibly the inner sleeve, I am not certain) had a list of frequently-asked questions, with no answers given. I liked the originality of presenting the familiar Q&A format stripped of the As. The questions were left floating. But I also like this more normal version of a Q&A which does have answers. But since this Autocomplete Interview is part of a WIRED series, the producers probably were not even thinking about this being a kind of echo of that album cover.

    I heard Life During Wartime as a young kid, wore out a cassette tape of True Stories, and had a vague paranoia ever since that has served me well.. thanks David! Considering living that song as a volunteer in Ukraine, got some groceries, some peanut butter, should last a couple of dayys

I listen to Stop Making Sense all the time in my car. My boyfriend played “This Must be the Place” to me before 3 surgeries. It calmed me. I would LOVE to sing it with him sometime. I was jealous watching Stephen Colbert singing with him. If l ever get married again, please let me know if you’re available 💞

    And he was making all the bike racks
    And he was singing in a tutu
    And he was meeting with St. Vincent

    My husband and I both have the quote “Never for money, always for love” tattooed on our left arms in different font. We actually did this 6 months into our relationship and before we got married! We just love the song so much 💖 and yes it was played at our wedding 😝

    March 1, 2022 at 8:47 am

    I love how genuine he is throughout this whole thing. You can tell he just…loves music and making music and talking about music…and as an autistic musician myself, I *wish* my infodumps were as clear and enlightening as his are.

    Wow! Mr. Byrnes talked 2 my talking head! When will it be time for his little snoot and his big suit? JK I already know because i listened to the comprehensive and encyclopedic compendium of all things Talking Heads.

    That right there, the definition of inspiration: “When you don’t try to imitate them, but inspires you to be more of yourself to express yourself and find your own way of expressing things.”

    does anyone know where to find the collab with mitski?

  301. Derek Dash

    March 4, 2022 at 4:26 am

    If I were David Byrne, I’d go to galleries and not be too concerned. And I’d have a cup of coffee. And I’d find my surroundings quite amusing. People would ask me which were my favourite paintings.

    This cat is so deep. As much as I’d love to see Talking Heads reunite, I totally understand and respect why he doesn’t want or need to.

  308. Tom Livanos

    March 5, 2022 at 12:31 am

    Is David Byrne the same as he ever was? The first question listed on the thumbnail. David Byrne ends here wanting more philosophical questions. It is not a question presented to him. You clickbait so-and-so’s.

    While Mr Byrne’s music has never really appealed to me, I have always respected the effort he has put into his craft and his willingness to take chances and go off the beaten path. It is refreshing to see people that follow their muse wherever it leads them. I enjoy hearing him talk about his art and his process.

    How did they not ask him what he thinks of Kermit’s cover of Once In A Lifetime???

    Seriously though, it’s awesome to see David on here, and I would love if you had him back to answer some more metaphysical questions in the future!

  314. Matt Ludlam

  317. Bob

    David Byrne has more talent in his little finger than the top 50 Pop artists today. He’s selfish for not swallowing his pride and getting the band together for the fans.

  331. Jason Bass

    March 9, 2022 at 6:29 pm

    the question was not “where is david byrne right now?” but instead “where is david byrnes right now?” we want to know where your ‘right now’ is. how’s that for philosophical?

  332. Leon Prowse

    March 9, 2022 at 11:45 pm

    “I got married at a Talking Heads show.”

    “Showoff”

  333. If you say fold in, one more time.

    March 9, 2022 at 11:46 pm

    “…not for grammar.” 😂 This was better than I could have ever imagined. Here, he has the essence of a highly intellectual, nerdy, yet cool college professor…and I love it.

    “Not only does he think I’m a fictional character, but it’s a psycho killer.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    David Byrne changed my life… in a good way? I had ’77 & ‘More Songs…” on constant loop for 6 months.

  349. Bee Whistler

    Currently, David Byrne looks a bit like a Marx Brother.

  350. Giorgia Colferai

    March 16, 2022 at 7:18 am

    If I made a joke and David Byrne laughed at it as he did at the interviewer’s I would literally die

  351. Billy Cox

    March 16, 2022 at 2:56 pm

    I would like to hear about his collaboration/relationship with Pops Staples

  352. 2760ade

    March 16, 2022 at 6:55 pm

    He is so personable and normal in this interview! I’ve always assumed him to be an angst ridden and difficult eccentric. Well that’s how he appears on stage with his vaguely hostile stare, and strange twitches and tics!😂

  353. 1HORNYJESUS

    March 16, 2022 at 8:50 pm

    Where is the visual?

  354. Eric Janssen

    March 16, 2022 at 9:20 pm

    Absolutely love this man and the Talking Heads.

  361. Hunter S

    March 18, 2022 at 10:43 pm

    I appreciate this video. I’m not feeling good right now so it’s really nice to see him get all of his charm and humor. It just makes things that much easier❤️ you really don’t know how much this means to me right now.

  362. wcg66

    He’s such a natural and engaging person.

  363. RunningAfterAntelope

    Disappointing that none of his answers were “I’ll tell you later.”

  364. CMcc

    March 19, 2022 at 4:31 am

    Every comment should start and end with “absolute legend”. Everything else is just white noise.

  365. Thawney

    March 19, 2022 at 11:10 pm

    David is an absolute legend

  366. crinbob

    He seems like a lovely man. I think we’d get along.

  367. Merging Marky

    March 20, 2022 at 4:48 am

    So love how Byrne shaped his life… Asperger’s only added to his talents and weirdness…n btw: Psycho Killer – first major, well underground hit for them i.m.o…lotsa college airplay, around the time of REM’s beginnings..❤️

  368. Jonathan Ross

    Fascinating man, this David Byrne.

  371. Captain

    March 21, 2022 at 1:02 am

    incredibly selfish for Byrne to not reunite the Talking Heads for the fans. He is the only barrier to that happening. Such a shame. Especially in this time when so many people are suffering and need love.

  372. Barbara Benavente Duval

    March 21, 2022 at 3:39 pm

    David is Himself and its beautiful!
