In his book he talks extensively about the making of the album and the subsequent tour and he gives due credit to the artists involved. I don't think he had an exploitative attitude with this project.
@@buddymx163 I don't agree. He actually mentioned his sources (not in the title of the video, but in a number of occasions), so I think there's a difference between Rei Momo and, for example, Elvis Presley stealing "hound dog". Surely, the "my Life in the Bush of Ghosts" thing is a lot more questionable both for its method and for its contents.
David Byrne has brought so much joy into my life, and every time I put my 6yo daughter in the car, she says Daddy can we listen to David Byrne? Her favorite song is Burning Down the House.
Im so in love with Byrne and having all these videos I've never seen before pop in my sub box is honestly a blessing i love adding visuals to songs i already adore
My daughter LOVES david byrne! and his music! she is 13 and is a very very big Talking heads fan as well loves david byrne solo to she is very unique musicly out of her freinds😊
They used to play this constantly in the radio when i was a child, so long ago when i lived in Antofagasta (northern Chile) today they played it on Universo fm, such beautiful memories, amazing track 💝😊
Este genio escocés logró capturar la esencia del mambo ( que es difícil para alguien que no es latino), en una canción que es universalmente una pieza maestra sin idioma. Gracias David Byrne..
My LATINA Body can't sit still while watching & Listening to this...MUY CALIENTE ! You can clearly hear The Queen Celia Cruz in the background. Muchas Gracias David Byrne.
No tengo idea de donde sacó la inspiración este señor para esta pieza musical tan electrizante....el sabor y la furia del trópico en el solista es sencillamente sorprendente.LOS INGLESES SON GELIDOS POR NATURALEZA pero el derroche que despliega en escena es simpático.LA COREOGRAFIA ES BELLA...ELEGANTE...SALVAJE...Y CONTAGIOSA....EXCELENTE TRABAJO MUSICAL.
Yo compré ese disco en CD. Es un gran disco desde el primero hasta la última canción. Todos los discos de David byrne son geniales .un gran músico y gran ser humano
esta canción significa mucho para mi, tenía 15 años, estaba en tercer año, saludos a todos desde Valencia, Venezuela... bailen este tema... brinden por la vida y borren el odio de sus corazones
Yo lo tuve en casette a mis 17 años, el año de su edición, el año 2000 me compré el CD y hace poco compré el vinilo, este album lleva 34 años acompañando mi vida y traspasado a mis hijos. Gracias Mr Byrne por ser parte del soundtrack de mi vida. Sldos desde talcahuano 🇨🇱
Recuerdo a un montón de intelectuales caribeños criticando a byrne , cuando el tipo simplemente es un crack, un maldito genio. Rey MOMO es una obra de arte de la antología de la creación artística humana.
University of Berkeley California 1989 what a blast!! Tons of fun in that concert with Celia Cruz y toda la banda!! Thanks David!!! (He reminds me of Brazilian Kaka)
Just saw Utopia I Boston on the last night before it heads to Broadway. He's still amazing after 30 years since this album when I last saw him. Love him and his music💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟 Thank you Mr. Byrne for all of the joy you've brought to me these last Forty plus years. 🌞
Qué buen ritmo, carambas!! Eso mi David, los pasitos que te salen!! Este tema para un año nuevo la rompe con todo y te dedico una pieza en tu honor, Mr. Byrne!
Nice videos With David Byrne i¨ve never seen them before only the Talking Heads videos. As i notice there is a New every Friday. In my dreams they will come more videos faster. Thanks again for these videos
I love salsa music as well as tex-mex like the mavericks like them also memories of 1989 especially this song my daughter was born this very year November 16th 1989 🙏✝️💖👩

Saw Byrne in Philly on the Rei Momo tour. The show started with Byrne on acoustic for a set; then the curtain dropped and all hell broke loose. What a band, what a talent. Still my favorite DB album.
David working for many years with Angel Fernandez, great trumpeter, arranger and musical director of Ray Barretto's band, who today directs Marc Anthony's band
If you love David Byrne, check out his Utopia show from Broadway. I saw it last September pre Broadway and precovid. Fantastic. I wondered why Dpike Lee was there in Boston at the show. Now l know he directed the movie for HBO coming out October 2020. Lots of Talking Head songs in it, especially my favorite, This Must be the Place.❤
David can't dance but that doesn't matter. What matters is that he gives it a go. Of course, if you're a genius and a musical icon nothing else really matters. Keep dancing David!

30 years later, no one has made an English album of Latin music like David Byrne’s Rei Momo
This album was a collaboration with Willy Colon, Celia Cruz and many other incredible Latin artists. Never understood why he never mentioned.
In his book he talks extensively about the making of the album and the subsequent tour and he gives due credit to the artists involved. I don't think he had an exploitative attitude with this project.
Mooie tijden ik was in Venezuella

This entire album is absolute perfection. Thank you David Byrne.
Yeah it's rock solid
david is actually so gorgeous

That's fantastic! Old soul for sure. Well done sir.
The Scotsman deep down has a Hispanic heart!
lowrance improvel The Scotsman barely can dance mambo, but it's cool because is David Byrne.
Read his book, The Bicycle Diaries.
Uh... quite deep, but it works anyway🎉
the most beautiful man in the world
I agree!
@@micahlanboney7830 I also agree.
Rei Momo is an incredible album. I still have my CD.
The Rei Momo concert tour was more than outstanding.
I've got the cassette! Still sitting in the center console of the car
I just ordered a new one, because I had taped the original from vinyl!
This song is now my #1 song of all time... and not yet figured out even 10% of the sarcasm and love Mr. Byrne put into it. Pure genius.
as a huge Willie Colon and Talking Heads fan, this is so special to me.
Im so in love with Byrne and having all these videos I've never seen before pop in my sub box is honestly a blessing i love adding visuals to songs i already adore
David!! como admiro su apreciación a las culturas hispánicas
Me encanta, tuve que traducirla al español, ni vergas en inglés...saludos desde Chilito

Scottish genius.
Born in Scotland...... Father and Mother Scottish...... That makes him Scottish........ Clear enough to me. ❤

David Byrne con mucho swing con esta tremenda canción ..y los coros de Willie Colón 2:43 woww ,me dan ganas de bailar 🎶💃🎶🎼🎹🎷🎶
Y Celia Cruz .
@@darknessblackened Celia no canta en esta canción, pero colaboró con Byrne en “Loco de amor”.

Rei Momo is the best concept album ever made. Bar none. Top of my cd stack for 31 years.

First heard it on release and was mesmerised. Listening again now and even more entranced by it. Sheer perfection!
THIS SONG MAKES ME SMILE.😁
David Byrne esta invitado al asado 🇵🇾
And the king of mambo Eddie Torres dancing himself! What a pleasure to listen and watch ❤
Nunca había escuchado de esto, que increible artista el señor David sin duda un grande. Que manera de captar la escencia latina a la perfección
Hace 20 años que no veía este video, sigo encantado y sin poder entender cómo este genio llegó a realizar un álbum más latino que nosotros mismos.
@@10801976 leyendo vi por ahí que recibió ayuda del famoso WillIe Colon, de ahí aquel arreglo salsero tan notable junto con la capacidad de Byrne
Como que se le olvido darle el credito que se merecen a todos los Latinos que participation en el disco.
Y escucha a los artistas que a grabado para luaka bop su sello discografico😊
trabajo con muchos músicos latinos, en el disco físico, están todos los créditos :)
Excelente álbum de David Byrne y por supuesto con ese sabor y sazón latino que mas se puede pedir, un Clásico en Venezuela
This song makes me forget myself....blows my mind completely. Tremendo saborrrrrr...
Thank you for incredible generosity to available all these amazing videos Mr Byrne! !

Fabuloso..! Tengo el vinil desde que apareció a fines de ¿80?... Y lo sigo escuchando.
Somewhere around 30 years ago I saw David Byrne in Tampa with Rei Momo, as always creative and innovative. 😂
bought the Rei Momo CD many years ago. still love it.
Literally the best song of all time ever
Would have loved to have seen this live at the time... pity I hadn't yet been born lol
Rocked this song in jazz band in high school. Such a fun and great piece of music literature. David is a genius.
An album masterpiece!
🤪
I don't remember seeing this on MTV... and it should have been played on hourly loop.
I used to watch it on VH1, when it was a good adult channel.
They did play this on MTV...not for long, and not during prime hours, but at a time when they still mostly played only music videos.
Recuerdo a un montón de intelectuales caribeños criticando a byrne , cuando el tipo simplemente es un crack, un maldito genio. Rey MOMO es una obra de arte de la antología de la creación artística humana.
Esta canción me obsesiona y llena de alegría.

Rei Momo is one of the best albums ever!
I love Byrne’s theatrical aspect of his music. He is seriously a legend.
Mixed metaphor here but David Byrne is a musical polyglot
Nice videos With David Byrne i¨ve never seen them before only the Talking Heads videos. As i notice there is a New every Friday. In my dreams they will come more videos faster. Thanks again for these videos
i was lucky to see him at CBGBS and with this project at the Brooklyn Academy of Music ,Willie Colon and Celia Cruz are also part of this production.
The only artist I can think of that makes happy music that isn’t inane.
Lo mejor de lo mejor grande Byrne el rei Momo 🎉👏👍
Oooh, Great song!
I love salsa music as well as tex-mex like the mavericks like them also memories of 1989 especially this song my daughter was born this very year November 16th 1989 🙏✝️💖👩

Thank you Mr. Byrne
Amo este tema, y como él lo baila más aún ❤😂🫶

BONITA CANCION , CANTA BIEN EXCELENTES BAILARINES
horn driven salsa power juxtaposed with whimsical walter mitty fantasies.
David experimentó con ritmos latinos
No me diga
Son afrocaribeños loco. Si fueran latinos estariamos hablando de cantos gregorianos. No bses a tu opresor
Gracias Cuba
@David byrne un grande🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶 Desde Argentina 🇦🇷 bailando al son de tu música. 😊👍
Bellissimo album ray momo
Que ganas de ser parte de este video 🥰, los pies se me mueven solos .
Saw Byrne in Philly on the Rei Momo tour. The show started with Byrne on acoustic for a set; then the curtain dropped and all hell broke loose. What a band, what a talent. Still my favorite DB album.
I also saw him in Zaragoza, Spain.
Amazing show!
David is a genoius, you touched my heart bro
David working for many years with Angel Fernandez, great trumpeter, arranger and musical director of Ray Barretto's band, who today directs Marc Anthony's band
one of the songs my mom listened to i actually remembered lol
Such wonderful videos! They bring back memories from the 80"s!!

Oh por Dios años buscando esta canción la escuche cuando joven ni tenía idea quien la cantaba solo recordaba esta voz feliz 😄💕
Que grande cuando pasan esas cosas. A mi me paso con una cancion de un grupo celta. Tarde mas de 20 años en rencontrarla.

why diss db, dancin is important to him..

Ole., you and your Friends.Peace please.
