dietcoke showed me this 'the fall' video a long time ago

i haven't listened to anything else by them since but this song is really awesome

listen to bend sinister. it's the only album i have by them but it's really super great thanks!!!

every song off of more songs about buildings and food rules

they literally don't have a bad song from 77 to remain in light

I came in to post the Kermit The Frog video but yeah Talking Heads are great. My uncle gave me the Stop Making Sense dvd for like my sixteenth birthday and I ripped the soundtrack with Nero and listened to it on a crappy discman for the whole summer, ~GOOD TIMES~. Actually that's kinda stopped me from getting into their studio stuff as much since the mixing etc seems very anaemic and stiff after listening to the live versions. I'm probably missing the point and will have to do an ALBUM RETROSPECTIVE at some point though!
I do think '77 is a really underrated album though (actually I'm not sure if it is or not but in terms of the Talking Heads discography it seems to get dismissed as just boring new wave which I think is kinda unfair). It's not really as radical or new as their later worldmusic-influenced stuff but there's a kind of understated nervous sweetness to it that I really like. Like not in the sense of fucking quirkiness but it seemed like a really likeable sweet pop music that just happened to be kinda accidentally skewed and neurotic. I remember liking it a lot.

Also the best Fall albums are probably Hex Enduction Hour and Slates:

Idk who fall of troy is but the fall is probably one of my favorite bands.

Hex enduction hour, middle class revolt, live at the witch trials, slates and infotainment scan are some good records by them

what glam rock do you ""think"" is better than talking heads. also I don't think it necessarily takes effort to get what makes their songs good. personally I think it's pretty obvious and I doubt I would like them if you had to really root for it and also they don't need to grow on you to be likeable

anyway let's hunt for a good once in a lifetime video
david bowie but its a close one.

sorry to bring this topic top again but holy shit i genuively thought that you were deliberalery avoiding this topic Dietcoke.. i... i got all i need now...

also i'm fairly certain you aren't going to like my music, judging from what you have said earlier. uh particulary about nick drake elliott smith and jeff buckley HEH THE TRIO but it's going to be boring songwriter shit and i am kind of :( about it.

part of liking something is being able to see what's not so great about it

i like a lot of really good music, but then I will also listen to some of the gayest shit ever(the knife, air, etc...) and i have absolutely no excuses for it

the same reason you'd need an excuse for dressing up in women's clothes.
