To be fair, Chris and Tina didn't realize that this would be included in the movie. This is one of those songs that would seem almost impossible to pull off live, but, with help from that amazing backing band, it works. Even with Chris's crazy shouts. Meanwhile, David Byrne had enough time to change into that big-ass suit. Stop Making Sense is arguably the greatest concert film ever made.

I personally love this live version. Whoever uploaded this has the audio all out of wack though. The lead vocals are turned way up and they don't blend with the instruments and backing vocals well. Also a lot of people are commenting on him being annoying and that he should have kept silent.. Honestly, I find it really funny and full of personality and I have a hard time not laughing and smiling when I hear this version! They are obviously just really fun loving people and love what they do. You can tell they ate having the time of their life!

+Metedith Easterling: Chris always looks like he's having a blast regardless of what band he's performing with or where he's playing. I've commented on that with other videos and others have noticed it too. On the other hand, I've never seen Tina look really happy while playing with The Talking Heads. You can even go back to their late 70's videos and she looks almost robotic. Look at her when they performed Psycho Killer for their induction into the Hall of Fame (2002?). She looks like she's just there. Then watch her performing with Tom Tom Club. She's very animated, smiling, jumping around-almost like she's a different person. Anyone else notice this? Watch a few vids of each band and ale your own comparison.

to all the comments about the bass being overdubbed --> what you need to remember is that this is a concert "film", they take shots from different parts of the song so as to have a better visual flow, if you look at the other musicians you'll notice what they are doing doesn't sync up at times either, doesn't mean it isn't live it just means that the editor thought this or that shot looked better for that moment and substituted it.

Don't sweat it. 1. There is an edit (video) right at that moment. 2. This concert-video-film was shot over 2 nights minimum. (edit the video, taking the shots you want to use, put them to the best version of the song (1st night or 2nd night). Tina has played this song (and many other much more difficult tunes) whilst laying down on the stage, dancing, singing, running, etc. And 3 (or 4) watching any video of her playing it live - it's obvious she's covering it all. :)

It wasn't, actually. The film was shot over three nights. This was done intentionally, to minimize the intrusion of the film crew., and the only way to do that was to record one night with cameras on stage right, and another with the cameras on stage left. This style of filming naturally leads to audio/visual discrepancies.

I find it rather ignorant, how all the minions get excited whenever David Byrne starts squeeling and getting all manic in performance, but write about "the drummer ruining it".....this is Chris Frantz. He FOUNDED Talking Heads with David Byrne and brought his then girlfriend and later wife Tina Weymouth into the band. Talking Heads were A BAND. It was NOT a David Byrne solo-show. Genius Of Love was by far more successful as a single than any Talking Heads song. Both Talking Heads AND Tom Tom Club were more successful than anything David Byrne has done after disbanding the Talking Heads. Maybe because Frantz, Weymouth and Harrison provided the basis for his extravaganza?
