Or is one already happening and I don’t know about it? Because if so, I think I’d be down with that. WWD reported yesterday that Paul Smith was given access to the band’s archives to collaborate on a few t-shirts, and their songs just keep popping up on rotation wherever I go—the combined outcome of both 80s nostalgia and Pandora, maybe. They just played “Once in a Lifetime” here in my corner cafe/work HQ—which made me so happy it inspired a search for cool gig posters. (And if you’re wondering: yes, I can work a retail angle into pretty much anything.)
Well, David Byrne did just put out a new album with St. Vincent, so he’s out there…
Also, I just saw a trailer for the new Sean Penn movie this weekend (This Must Be the Place?) and David Byrne did the music and is featured somewhat, I think. All fantastic! I spent many of my college years wishing I were Tina Weymouth……….
My parents listed to Talking Heads on repeat one summer growing up and I know every single word.
Everybody
Get in line!
The Talking Heads and the B-52s? What a great concert that would have been!
Once in a lifetime came on just as my husband proposed to me. Love the talking heads.
