Kind of crazy...without music, this sounds like one of those self-help seminars that just completely derails after the host has a mental breakdown on stage.
3 of my 4 of my dogs started growling and the other one started howling. Edit: my dog that howled just killed a cat and now my friends want me to put him down. Obviously I am not going to do that.
POV: You’re on your deathbed, only able to hear the faint beating of your heart in rhythm with auditory hallucinations of the vocals from the hit song “Once in a Lifetime”.
He literally sounds like those evangelist preachers going crazy during their big preaching performances where they knock people over with their coat and pretend they are healing the audience through God.
03:35 When I've heard this with the music, it sounded a LOT different than the unintelligible gibberish here, but now it's all that I DO hear. Before now, it sounded like he was actually saying something.
This sounds like an audio log you find in an atmospheric action game after the game takes its ninth-hour turn into eldritch horror and it starts throwing completely incoherent dialogue at you to unsettle you
i feel like he's hunting me in a dark warehouse but he can't see me so he's using sound to locate me like echolocation. the moment where he says "here the twister comes" is what he says before he finally sees me.
this kind of thing really shows how much each part of the song really add id love to see a playlist of one song but with one piece removed each time like the first one is just the song then without the bass then without the guitar then without any of the electronic sounds then just the vocals and the just the vocals without any effects on and then a video of just each piece individually something like that would help people really understand the music instead of just observing it
I'm sure some of the isolated multi tracks you can find were copied and leaked by someone who was trusted enough to be given access to the masters. When an analog recording is dusted off to be digitised or remastered, it would be tempting to make a copy for yourself and your buddies.
My house is in the forest,i always talk and sing a little spooky(just like this)when i go outside and walk just like david bryne alone at night so large deadly animals ie.bears,mountain lions,can wake up and walk away or i might trip over them and fall down just like he does in the song.
Guys there's a comment on either this or the instrumental version of listening to this and that at the same time and how it sounds amazing linked up and I tried it AND IT REALLY DOES HOLY SHIT
this sounds like david byrne is lost alone in a cave and shouting nonsense into the darkness
Ever priest be like
That’s funny lol.
which is exactly what he was doing.
Talking Heads is one hell of a drug
aint nonsense my friend
This is the weirdest Ted Talk I've ever seen
James Veitch ted talk was better I say
@@Spectre1122 No Ted Talk is better than the Talking Heads I say
Vitorio Pedrelli hmm you have a point
imagine the same as it ever was part
Underrated comment.
I love how disconcerting this is. I feel like David Byrne is holding me at gunpoint and yelling at me in an abandoned warehouse.
that is exactly the feeling I got from listening to this
i can't stop thinking about this comment tbh
and the twister comes
i’d let him do that

I just watched a video explaining that this song was basically written to sound like a crazy sermon.

you been to a lot of those?
dude what type of self help seminars are you going to
This made my dogs start growling
3 of my 4 of my dogs started growling and the other one started howling. Edit: my dog that howled just killed a cat and now my friends want me to put him down. Obviously I am not going to do that.
Which part to be exact
@@crowinc.4824 For me it was 0:25
It's like 60 minutes on acid
haha thats so funny😂
0:56 "I need your strongest potions"
1:01 "My potions are far too strong for you!"
You have to be cultured to get this refrence
Im not cultured what is this referencing too?
Pls explain
@@ahmadbani1452 this is the reference

It's like hearing a cult somewhere in a cavern

He sounds like one of those late-night TV preachers from back in the day, except it's about existentialism and not Jesus.
That was the idea in conceptualising this song....
I think he meant it to be that
@@camedialdamage8180 it is
The flaming face visuals really make it for me.
Clumsy Sandbocks Really makes it feel like the authentic Hell experience, yes?
Yessir, it sure does.

That was actually the inspiration of it!
This is actually the audio of Joel olsteen having a mental breakdown
If I close my eyes, I can live out my dream of David Byrne shouting at me in a cave while we hold hands.
SAME AS IT Ever wAS, sAme As IT EVer was... HERE COMES THE TWISTER
How many times did he track that chorus? It sounds creepy as fuck.
I love it.
You’ve stumbled upon a cult burning albums other than the talking heads. And this is their chant
Welcome to David Byrne's fun cave
This song is so scary yet so upbeat at the same time
03:35 When I've heard this with the music, it sounded a LOT different than the unintelligible gibberish here, but now it's all that I DO hear. Before now, it sounded like he was actually saying something.
he is not intending to say anything. quite intentional if you read about the history of the song
I can kinda hear him saying "Under the moon, oh no."
"Here comes the twister" sounds so freaking ominous.
This sounds like an audio log you find in an atmospheric action game after the game takes its ninth-hour turn into eldritch horror and it starts throwing completely incoherent dialogue at you to unsettle you
Half Life 2?
L E T T I N G T H E D A Y S G O B Y
this sounds like something you'd hear before being murdered??
I just watched that movie, Ava 😅
I’m pretty sure Brian Eno is also singing on the chorus
this is horrifying
That reverb though.
i feel like he's hunting me in a dark warehouse but he can't see me so he's using sound to locate me like echolocation. the moment where he says "here the twister comes" is what he says before he finally sees me.
This. Is. Unreal.
parts of this feel like a weird monologue
Aliceincrazyland1 That's the song with music.
it *is* a weird monologue
he sounds like a preacher
if i didn't know what i was listening to i'd think it was a televangelist on any sunday morning .
that was the point of the song
this kind of thing really shows how much each part of the song really add
id love to see a playlist of one song but with one piece removed each time
like the first one is just the song
then without the bass
then without the guitar
then without any of the electronic sounds
then just the vocals
and the just the vocals without any effects on
and then a video of just each piece individually
something like that would help people really understand the music instead of just observing it
David Bryne loses his mind in the white void that he his stuck in.
that's why i love David.
listening to this during a psychotic episode such as god intended
I love this...
Gives a whole new perspective on a time forever song
I used to go crazy hearing this song n the clubs. Lol
This is like I’m at at Ted talk or at a church with a preacher and there’s a collage party happening next door and that’s why there’s music
Shouting into the void of the night sky after the stars have disappeared before/during wading into a pitch black lake never to be seen again
Deep
@@HostileLemons just like the lake
needed this for something, very glad to find it.
You bring light into the darkness with your fire. As it always was. You are always right. Thank you
this makes me realize what i've done
This is what nightmares are made of.
You listen/watch this while you’re tripping and kiss your sanity goodbye 😂😂😂
It sounds like somebody having a mental breakdown in a abandoned bathroom stall
This is so eerie. The echo effect is especially creepy.
the final few minutes of this are fucking hilarious
This is like when they uploaded the mummy ad without the music by mistake
Where does one get isolated vocals? Do the bands release them.
You can still hear the music. So it's an edit.
Daandude1 not necessarily, in this case it's probably bleed from his headphones
Woah, didn't know David Byrne listened to Meshuggah
prob from Rockband... there's software to download the individual tracks
I'm sure some of the isolated multi tracks you can find were copied and leaked by someone who was trusted enough to be given access to the masters. When an analog recording is dusted off to be digitised or remastered, it would be tempting to make a copy for yourself and your buddies.
At 3:34 I can't take it!! LMBO!!! "ruh to the ruh ruh ruh" What the HELL WAS THAT??
i don't know how, but this somehow still works
Thanks for this!!
No problem!
why does this sound like one of those cult churches on sunday
Because that was precisely what inspired David Byrne to make this song.
This is not my beautiful wife...
What's special about this song is that you can't take the instrumental and vocals and make them sound good whitout combining them
Under the moon, oh no!
this gives me life
mass was kind of weird today
My house is in the forest,i always talk and sing a little spooky(just like this)when i go outside and walk just like david bryne alone at night so large deadly animals ie.bears,mountain lions,can wake up and walk away or i might trip over them and fall down just like he does in the song.
I'm gonna vomit laughing
ä
scarier then some of hitchcocks best works
David Byrne was right, How did I get here?
Feels like I’m at church
Am I right? Am I wrong? Same as it ever was... ❤️
No one:

Hi there. Just wondering. Do you have the synth loop track?
I have the multitrack. Can be opened with Audacity: rosshudson.co.uk/resources/multitracks/Talking%20Heads%20-%20Once%20In%20A%20Lifetime.mogg
Wow! Thanks very much
arthurguitar No problem!
@@RossHudsonMambo any chance you still have these files?
Hallelujah 🙌🏻

Many thanks for the tool.
This made me feel very nervous.
Amen.
Thanks
why is david byrne inside of my head
Preacher Man!
My brain during the most important test that will decide my future:
sometimes you just need to put this on and lose all sense of reality for a few minutes
0:01 Harry Romero - My Beautiful House
sounds like a highly religious barbershop quartet
So creative
this is probably what acid feels like
I don't know how to feel about thus
3:40 Here comes the twister...
Into the silent water I guess
me and my friends at 3 AM at a sleepover when everyone is in bed still trying to fall asleep
me singing once in a lifetime to my friends in the middle of P.E
This lightweight cursed, but Ima still try and remix it.
Is he harmonizing? Or simply doing an octave? Or just the same line twice
I think it's Brian Eno and David singing at the same time
1:44 turron?!
Theres a lot of references to the offical music video and the ena series you just have to look through the official vid and the ena series
3:39 what said here?
"Here the twister comes, here comes the twister!"
Here before the g himself sees this @CoreyLaddo
David Byrne is stuck in a mental hospital have a existential crisis
How did I get here?
Great if you put Acid Jam by Rhauder under it
why did i listen to this whole ass video
Robin Williams! Is that you???
- Sounds like a high school talent show,
it's like, being on a church with a pastor making some speech about to initiate a movement of some sorts. We need to get mad.
