  • You can't have an anthem without Psycho Killer _ Talking Heads

    some great lines:

    2nd verse

    "You start a conversation you can't even finish it
    You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything
    When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
    Say something once, why say it again?"

  • David Byrne has self-identified as autistic in various interviews.

    I enjoy his intellectual observation of others, though some find him arch and detached.

    The Feelings album has an interesting method of emotional representation - you can snap the spindles on the CD version and use it as a roulette wheel for song selection, with each song being associated with a different feeling.
