I love Tina Weymouth. She was always completely professional and yet also always looked like she was having so much fun.
I saw them around the time of Stop Making Sense and Tina did a dynamic job while very, very pregnant.
Y se conserva muy bien
Most underrated bassist of all time imo

Tina absolutely smashes this performance! I just love hearing her bass. She seems like a lovely woman and I admire her talents immensely
Tina is a brililant bassist!
Nuce boobs too
Loved her choice of attire
Always wished she would increase her amp volume
This is not a terrible performance at all. Considering they'd probably not played together for about 14 years then it's pretty bloody good. (And a lot better than a lot of Hall of Fame performances you see).
aires69uk Talking Heads last toured in 1984. And hadn’t performed together since 1985. It had been 17 years since they had.
You don't climb on the stage and then just start playing after 20 years. You rehearse before such an event. They sound like they not only never rehearsed, but also as if they did not play at all for years, at least two of them. That bass and the drums are horrible.
Peter Kroll Yes. Talking Heads hadn’t performed together in 17 years. They broke up ambicly officially in 1991.
Nah it’s exceptionally bad
@@plawson8577 How the eff do you know they didnt get together and practice for weeks or months for this. You can BET they had LOTS of notice for this....and can bet your ass they practiced the SHIT out of this because they knew 1,000,000+ people were watching.
Chris ALWAYS looks like he's having a good time
I have a feeling that the only reason the band members never killed each other was because of Chris Frantz's permanent grin. He should get a Nobel Peace Prize for it.
psycho drummer, qu'est ce que c'est...
You’d have a permanent grin too if you got to screw Tina every day!
@@boataxe4605 unless She was passed out DRUNK
D. Dios How did my comment solicit a response about date rape? One, she’s never been known to be a heavy drinker who drinks to the point of passing out. Two, she’s his wife and he doesn’t have to get her drunk to fuck her. You know, happy, consensual, married sex where each persons goal is to please the other ( or maybe you don’t know).
That’s about the best comment ever for Talking Heads.
They seem kind of tense and nervous, almost as if they can't relax.
They can't help it. They’re Psycho Killers......
fat beast Thanks. Except, bklynboyeny spelled "they're" as "their," which is a crime in some countries.
danielscissorhands I think they were still mad the breakup and all. I hear they going on tour this year though.
you are really uneducated i mean music talking heads is a mater of dont give a fuck buut love whatewer you f and well qia
Sounds legit
What I want to see is how these guys interacted at the rehearsals where the cameras weren't involved.
I have a feeling they didn't interact.
Per Chris's book, they had a good time rehearsing..." Just like old times" but this was before his book came out lol.
@@smokingsamosa I have a feeling only the three were interacting. Heck, the other one may not be attending rehearsal at all (so awkward to be so outnumbered), just agreed to perform the way it was on records. At 4:40 I guess Jerry Harrison cuing Chris Frantz (drummer) to conclude the instrumentals.
WHO CARES? READ PEOPLE MAGAZINE FOR THAT KIND OF TRASH!
@@thornil2231 You cared. You browse the replies and even commented yourself.
This is like watching a divorced couple having sex one last time, "for old time sake."
Very well said
Best analogy ever. And I should know.
Yep. The same for Burning Down the House. But check out Life During Wartime. They look like they've finally loosened up.
But, they did it. They had a sac to do this. More than many can say.
Wow ! Someone seems to know what they are talking about
Damn Tinas Bass has more Character than a Disney movie, fucking love that thing!
Odd Juxtaposition.
@@unclefester9113 indeed lol
Tina's bass is like the glue to this whole song. Also that little dance David does when he's singing "fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better" always gets me hyped
So much talent, so much history. Byrne may have broke from the group, but Frantz, Weymouth, and Harrison had so much stake in that pool.
David Byrne has aged REALLY well.
+Zack Kammler He's good looking I always thought.
David has only changed through his hair color
he's definitely been to a dermatologist and had " a little work done" there's no lines on his forehead ( botox) and his laugh lines hardly appear (fillers).
His attitude has not, however...he came across as very stand-offish during this show. Not sure wtf the rest of the band did to make him so "tense and nervous"...but somebody needs to let something go, so this group can do their things again. David has waited too long to make amends.
I think Jerry looks great!
Chris looks like he always does behind the drums: He looks like he's having fun! David can still hit those high notes and Tina looks great as always.....I'm really diggin' her blouse!
Tina is like fine wine....she always got better with age....
Chris playing is like Nick Mason playing: This is great, no one's arguing right now!
Tina's see-through blouse knocked me out.
@@bird10498 She knows she's Hot!
Tina Weymouth has an ageless beauty, she is mesmerizing.
HER AND STEVIE NICKS HAVE AGED ABOUT THE SAME THESE DAYS
3ducs i
Yes!
Nipples.
Yes and she's freaking hot.
it took a minute to get into the swing of it, but once they did it was a great performance
agreed
Yup. And it's beautiful to watch. This is humans with all their foibles overcoming them in the service of creating art. We also get to see Byrne go from an apparently self-conscious, almost ironic performance, to being fully engaged in the song and the moment. It's live music in its most human, most vital form.
No, not really.
I so miss the Talking Heads.
Never heard of "the" Talking Heads.
You new to sentence structure?
Nope. The Name of This Band Is Talking Heads.
ruclips.net/video/G5jRAvQ7ZM0/видео.html
Teddy Salad Yeah he didnt ask about the band he asked about sentence structure big fella just you calm down
Me too
Love, love, love...Tina Weymouth. What a great bass line she came up with for this track, all those years ago. She is brilliant. Genius. And still...gorgeous.
Great band for five albums. Saw them live in Florida, like 1982 or something. Front row, got Byrne's guitar pick. Still have it.
Incredible performers.
is crazy how this was nearly 20 years ago
fuck off i was born in that year, just until this comment i realized im almost 20
Это было 22 года назад
This band exemplifies all the best qualities of musicians who have worked together for over 45 years
Life During Wartime,Burning Down the House and this song....really brought out Talking heads and their unique style brand to all
One of the best songs with the best bass and drum beat ...so memorable
I havent heard these guys in probably twenty years.
Love these guys.
Now Im gonna have to drink beer and watch all night.
Sounding maybe a bit tired all these decades later, but it's still great to hear the band play. One of the best bands ever.
This band were just so good even on an off day.
My favourite band growing up- love how they rocked out at the end - even DB looked like he was enjoying it
trust me...he didn't...they hated each other at this time
It was unfortunate, but at this time they still disliked lead singer David Bryne because at the end he had insisted on taking all the credit and the other three resented him for that. They barely got along with him in this last performance at the Hall of Fame in 2002. Fortunately, he got over this condition and when the movie they did was recreated for release in 2023, they actually get along now. It was nice to see them together both on CBS and then Steven Colbert and they were actually getting along much better than they were at this rewards ceremony. I think they sound pretty good considering the long time apart they spent before this one-off performance which they obviously practiced some for.
there are so many slams in this thread, but compared to a great majority of washed up rock stars who phone it in or sound horrid, THIS is a very solid performance, and a good rendition of this song. factor in that they probably hadn't played together in 15 years or more, and this is remarkable.
Really feels like Frantz is the only one who wants to be there. Ringo vibes of “everyone seems to hate each other but I just wanna bang on my drums”
What I love about this song is it sounds a little different every time they perform it. Like some words get stressed when they weren't originally stressed and vice versa.
I don't think it's that they can't play consistently, I think it's to the song's advantage.
This song will never get old... 🎶
Crazy song, crazy song, crazy people, crazy me
psycho killer
love them
they seem like the coolest people i feel like hangin out with them i dont know why
Chris looks happy as always, Jerry looks bored, Tina looks awkward and David definitely looks like he doesn’t want to be there
Isn’t that how he always looked?
Jerry definitely looks like he took a nap afterwards
Emocionante ver essa banda tocando essa música. Meu pai escutava em sua juventude. Eu escutei durante toda a minha vida e agora, é uma das canções preferidas do meu sobrinho de 15 anos.Mais de 40 anos de história!Existem canções que são eternas!
i have no idea what i’m liking
Ha 30 anos , não tinha ma festa de universitários que não tocasse esta banda. Eu curtia muito.
@@the-ph2pk The guy really likes the band
Talking Heads’ music sounds so crazy, yet the artists always seem so chill
The perfect song for an uneasy situation.
This song was great back in the day and it and the band still sounds great.
What a high energy, high voltage band. They each play their respective instruments to the very edge of what can be done with them. I am exhausted from this balls to the walls performance.
One of my Favorites..Love the bass player!
They are live great as in studio.. Awesome musicians 🥰👍
Astonishing live performance.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
My favourite version/take they have ever done on it!
the ending of this song rocks, they should have played the whole song like that
Unlike John Fogerty, at least this guys got together to perform for all of us!
TALKING HEADS YOU'RE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!
Unlike, perhaps, some other bands where the lead person isn't as much without the band, Fogerty (John) WAS CCR. He wrote the songs, arranged the songs, largely produced the songs, sang the songs, and played the lead guitar in what was essentially a riff based band. And the rest of the band BITCHED AND MOANED, so he said "fine, we'll run this like a one-quarter each partnership", and when each guy was as fully responsible, top to bottom. one fourth of the album was up to snuff while three fourths was dreadful. AND THEY STILL BITCHED AND MOANED that HE should do all the work but the rewards should still be shared equally. SOMETIMES the lead person IS the band, and Fogerty is one instance. I'll concede Clifford had some crisp drumming in CCR's heyday, but it certainly wasn't a focal point that couldn't be done without, and the other two were placeholders that anyone could have filled. So if I was Fogerty, and I was put through what the others put him through, I'd have washed my hands for good too.
Fogerty is an arrogant douche bag. CCR will always be John Fogerty, Tom Fogerty, Doug Clifford, and Stu Cook. To screw his band mates at the RNR Hall of Fame induction was WRONG! Frig John Fogerty and his ass kissing accomplice, Springsteen. The world renowned King of the douche bags.
@@dadeo8957 c'mon men, the other members were practically John's backing band
@@charlie172011 a backing band who treated him like shit, bitched constantly, and wanted equal splitting of the money for songs that john wrote, sang, arranged, produced, and played all the lead to
John Fogerty was to CCR as Michael Jordan was to dah Bulls.
Saw them at CBGBs...fabulous
Lucky you!
Hard to believe it's been 44 years since the songs release.
Its great to see them play without all the other musicians. GREAT BAND!!!
Damn! She is an animal in the bass!
Saw them in 1983, at their best! Tina’s bass killed it.
These hall of fame shows are just soul sapping
When Lora and I saw them at Memorial Coliseum in Lexington Kentucky in 1982 the sold out show was smoking HOT! Ranked as a top live show of the 80's, Prince and the Boss completed a 3 month run in that era. ENJOY
Yeah, it's a perfunctory Psycho Killer from Talking Heads, but remember this song was released in 1976 and they have not played together for a long time. Tina (in her see-through blouse) and Chris are still cool and cute and David is still captivating, and Jerry is sort of sleep-walking through it, but I still have big respect for the band.
Ring0fSaturn Talking Heads had unofficially disbanded in 1985. And had not performed together since then.
If you want note for note perfection, listen to the album version. Seriously, and without judgement I say this. Like what *you* like... but to me...
This is humans with all their foibles overcoming them in the service of creating art. They fumble a bit at the beginning and then find their way into the groove. Hearing that process makes the whole song lift when they finally lock in.
We also get to see Byrne go from an apparently self-conscious, almost ironic performance, to being fully engaged in the song and the moment.
It's live music in its most human, most vital form.
Weymouth described Byrne as "a man incapable of returning friendship". She told Glasgow's Sunday Herald: "Cutting off attachments when a thing/person is perceived to have served its purpose or there is a perceived threat to ego is the lifelong pattern of his relations".
Look amazing and still together hell yeah. After all these years I love when band mates are still playing. They probably look back and go damn.
Tina plays an amazing bass. Carries the whole band.
She stole the show as always 🤘😍
Such talent and so tight all these years later....
BRILLIANT
Heard this song the first week it came out. Been a BIG fan ever since.
I am a huge fan of theirs and I will always be.
+Leah Koval me too.
Wow, David's voice as it wasy some 60 years ago ;-) Incredible
60 years before this performance in 2002 David had no voice.
He wasn't born until 1952.
At least these guys and gal
We're able to play together ,
Unlike all these other rock bands who are still feuding
and won't honor the work and craft they created together
time slips away very fast
I'll agree 1000 % that this is no intesety in the beginning but the 2 last verses is much more likely the 82? Version. But the whole TALKING HEADS contribute to the 70's and 80's music are one of the most important to music history's...!! And David Byrne still makes good record's and conserts. Saw him in Oslo on the Byrne/Eno concert tour, Fantastic!!
Methinks these kids got a great future in the music biz
solid bass... she's awesome
An old T.H classic, the years favored his voice and looks
One of the best funk bands of all time.
Read the title again
David Byrne is amazing. Talking Heads were amazing. While a reunion would be great, its not necessarily needed. David's Everything That Happens Happens Today album with Brian Eno was amazing. And his new album Love this Giant with St. Vincent is great.
Bryne's solo material pales in comparison to the Talking Heads.
Tina looks amazing here.
thanks Tina, Chris and Jerry, David couldn't of done it without you in 1975 76 77 79
CONGRATS
This takes me back to being 15 in Kalgoorlie Western Australia
Chris, always smiling!
Same as they ever were...
Exactly opposite. You must be related to Helen Keller, because you're obviously deaf
Toolmybass It’s a joke.
David Byrne blew a lot of minds that were already thoroughly well blown
They're amazing!
You can just see how there's not enough room for those 3 gigantic egos up front... lol
Jerry doesn't have a gigantic ego.
+Joseph Scott: I concur...been following this group for a long time and Jerry has never struck me as being egotistical with the exception of ONE interview I saw him do with Tina & Chris (it's probably on RUclips). David has enormous talent and the personality of a goat. His ego is so big that when he's on the freeway he needs a WIDE LOAD sign and a police escort. But I guess when you are that good you're allowed some ego. Don't know about Tina. I personally believe David tried to keep her in the background. In all of the live performance videos of Talking Heads I've seen, I've never seen one where Tina looked excited or happy. But look at her Tom Tom Club performances and she's smiling and bubbly and shaking that great ass of hers.

Threat_Dynamics Keep in mind that Talking Heads was David Byrne's art. He more or less wrote the music, all the lyrics and sang every song. He brought in all the other musicians when he saw the limitations of his bandmates. He never held Tina back, she never would have been without him. Tom Tom was a cute project, but slight in comparison to Byrne's efforts. Like any great artist, Byrne was finished with THs by 1990, and he moved on to other projects. This is the reason for all the bitterness towards him.
TallTyrionLannister David and Tina's feud happened because he left the band unceremoniously and moved onto other projects. He felt he was finished with THs artistically, they had done every thing they could, and the music was growing stale. She had other ideas. Keep in mind that Byrne pretty much was THs, without him they were shrunken heads.
Tina is right on time and keeping it all tight great harmonies all round, seems like they all thought "hey we are adults lets kick this in the butt tonight then go home for a nice cup of tea and coco lol
Wow, David couldn’t possibly be less interested. Talk about mailing it in.
I was in elementary school during the 80s, grew up watching MTV and my mother hated it! I love the Talking Heads videos!
Seems like Chris just loves to play... He's always wearing in a big smile in any video I've seen of them. Good for him. After all it's "PLAYING music" not "WORKING music". I'm glad he and Tina had such success with Tom Tom Club. I think at the time, their album had sold more than the ENTIRE TH catalog up to that point -- I'm sure that pissed off David to no end. Just a few weeks ago, I heard some baller in his fancy ride blasting "Genius of Love" as he cruised down the street.
Egos have ruined the best of bands. Can't we all just get along and make great music!
Yeah, but bands hating each other has also made for some great music, like Rumours
Just read Chris Frantz's brand new autobiography. It explains this awkward performance very well. And it unmasks the, cough, "genius", cough, of DB.
I absolutely love the talking heads!!
Awesome. Did not know of the existence of this. Thanks for posting.
You didn`t know Talking Heads were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Were you in a coma?
Muito boa banda tenho 47 anos desde 89 escuto
Favorite scene in Heroes......Sylar turns on the car radio....cue up the Psycho killer and he sort of smiles....classic!
Bloody hell! This takes phoning it in to a whole new level.
The solo was cool
A mi siempre me encantó en todas sus versiones.
Jerry has aged the best
(Also David)
I love David Byrne so much
Been listening to this song constantly.
David almost hasn't aged if he dyed his hair brown he would look exactly the same
música boa ! Brasil na representação
Don't be pessimistic people, at 3:40 I'd say they prove us THEY STILL GOT IT GOING!
Hall of fame material. Hall of fame social impact. Hall of fame TALENT. Hall of fame performance.
Jesus, David just doesn't want to be there. The first line is him seemingly going 'shit I'm actually doing this'. Can see they've argued, can't look to his left or right. Just tunnel vision and he's got his back to everyone. Can see the tension between him and Jerry until they focus. Shame, but a shambles, though much tighter towards the end once David let Jerry check his fretboard. "We are vain & we are blind, I hate people when they're not polite", said with such vigour, and it's shows David, it really does.
They're all so uninterested in being there. A sad fate for one of the greatest bands of all time, and my personal favourite.
Watching this after finishing the Chris Frantz book Remain in Love... it is about what I expected...a band that doesn’t like one another anymore. The Frantz book was sad...a real attack.
All I can think about is that energy they had back in the day...but of course I love them.
