Corby Dinzen Yes and now we’re talking about it. You wanna talk sports or some shit? Want to discuss topics totally removed from that of the video? If you don’t like people outlining parts of the video they liked then either don’t read the comments of the fucking video expecting people to talk about the video... maybe don’t even read the comments at all if it’s an irritant to you.
I had a very brief encounter with David Byrne. Talking Heads performed on my campus in '82 or '83 and I helped the stage crew. As we were breaking down after the show, he came out from wherever the band had been backstage and on the way out of the colosseum he stopped for a few seconds and softly said, to no one in particular, "thank you very much, I really appreciate you guys."
The same happened with Adam Granduciel from War on Drugs. He was cleaning up the stage with the roadies, rolling up cables and I walked up to the stage to get the setlist and he didn't even hesitate to drop everything, rip it off the floor and he kneeled and gave me one of those surfer handshakes (apparently it's called a hand hug lol) and after me saying I loved the show, he said "Thanks dude, I really appreciate that." and something along the lines of hopefully coming back soon with the biggest smile on his face. After that he just went back to helping the roadies and kinda ignored the other fans hovering in front of the stage.
As someone who for an unknown reason, idolises many artists without technical singing abilities, I really like this explanation! Dunno if it's true, but its better than cus I'm just a hipster.
not really. This kind of weirdo shit was common in the early 80s. One example I saw recently is the band 'Crash Course in Science' playing their song 'Kitchen Motors', which they did using common kitchen devices.
It's funny how some people do put a "the" before a famous celebrities name sometimes, like the Howard Stern types David Byrne was impersonating. "You wanna be in movies like 'the' Prince, 'the' Sting, 'the' David Bowie." Meaning like Prince in Purple Rain, Sting in Dune, David Bowie in The Man Who Fell to Earth.

David Byrne’s ASD really adds to how odd he seems. He’s a real inspiration to me as a person with Asperger’s, knowing that he feels no shame in seeming odd to other people.
@@myway7367I’m not entirely sure what you mean by this, but Byrne has said he is on the ASD spectrum. He doesn’t simply have dry humor and autistic people are not “slow”. Many of us think in ways considered incredibly smart because we can find answers to problems someone not autistic couldn’t find. Some of the greatest minds in recent history were likely autistic.
I thought it might be the case but it was very hard to recognize him under so much make up. Was looking for clarification in the comments section. Thanks.
A statement from Bryne on this video: Recently a journalist pointed out something I did in a promo video skit in 1984 for the Talking Heads concert film Stop Making Sense. In the piece I appear as a number of different characters interviewing myself, and some of the characters portrayed are people of color. I’d just about forgotten about this skit and I’m grateful that it has been brought to my attention. To watch myself in the various characters, including black and brown face, I acknowledge it was a major mistake in judgement that showed a lack of real understanding. It’s like looking in a mirror and seeing someone else- you’re not, or were not, the person you thought you were. We have huge blind spots about ourselves- well, I certainly do. I’d like to think I am beyond making mistakes like this, but clearly at the time I was not. Like I say at the end of our Broadway show American Utopia "I need to change too"...and I believe I have changed since then. One hopes that folks have the grace and understanding to allow that someone like me, anyone really, can grow and change, and that the past can be examined with honesty and accountability. - David Byrne
That's the smart and sensible response. David understands that there is no need to drag this out with the SJW crowd. No sense in being rational to an irrational point of view.
If he didn't have at least one black character, people would have complained that all the interviewers were white. It's a no win situation. At least nobody is calling the female interviewer trans, or "womanface."
I love you guys... genius. But your comedy timing is for shit. Even that made me laugh... Keep it up guys. Good material. You're spinning straw into... pure... gold. Congratulations!
Notecrusher yep. Probably. Now that I think of it he also had a hit song called 'And She Does' where he talks about a girl "feeling the highway breathing".
For someone who endorses the idea of "stop making sense" he sure does give some pretty logical answers to these questions. Which I guess in itself doesn't make sense. Damn David, you're good.
@@Paranormal_Gaming_ Who has a "fake account"? You know some people just watch youtube and don't create their own content, right? But it's kind of odd that you're so upset because someone said that a person wearing a giant suit to make their head look small looks odd. He meant it to be odd, so I don't know why your feelings are hurt, sir.
@@jan_Travis Maybe because he was intentionally portraying black characters/people like Sammy Davis and Issac from The Love Boat? If I interviewed people dressed like Jerry Lewis and talking/immitating the body language of Woody Allen, I'd expect people to be offended, just saying. Maybe work on your empathy stat a bit, chap?
I say this about the Talking Heads all the time. They are almost impossible to cover because of that. If anyone does what they try to do, it sounds awful. Only they could make it genius.
It's so dense, every single frame has so many things going on. David's a much more tense character than we've ever had, and far less relaxed. But we can diminish the effects of that. It's gonna be great.
stop limiting autistic people to their autism. He just made a funny interview that other people could have done without autism. It's so sad to be seen as the autism itself instead of a normal person with a slightly different mindset
"... like The Prince, The Sting, The David Bowie?" Ouch, that's a suspicious omen. If Sting doesn't make it to the year's end I think David Byrne should be taken in for questioning.
