You are absolutely correct! Saw him last summer at The Rose Music Center in Huber Heights, Ohio while he was on his American Utopia tour and it was a spectacular show. I hope to get the chance to see him live again. The best part was when he basically stopped the show a few songs in and demanded--in his comically awkward David Byrne style--that they shut down the 2 huge LED screens that are on either side of the stage because they were extremely bright and distracting, they were also greatly taking away from the lighting effects that are incorporated into the show. It took them a few minutes to figure out how to completely shut them down, but he waited, and reminded us that the show is in front of us, NOT on those big screens. It was great, and he was right too. The Rose is not a huge venue and it really does not need those giant screens. The point of LIVE music is to watch the person/people performing on the stage in front of you.
I think it comes from the bad Western habit of considering only young products as only valid, whereas in most other cultures, masters are done with the benefit of time
ok, I was a bit of an impatient cunt. I've just watched it through and I know what you mean - it's pretty awesome I I do like that mental dancing from the 80's though
Kinda true. But also, I went back to watch some clips from Stop Making Sense in his younger days-- and I have to admit. I had forgotten how breathtaking those performances were. I literally had tears in my eyes.
There is such an unique element of David Byrne's voice that knocks me out. A mixture of trembly vulnerability together with a reassuring strength...how he do that? LOVE
I've said it before and I'm going to say it again. I'm forever grateful that in all of the history of the human being I was born and living concurrently with people like David Byrne.
I usually don't listen to a song twice in a row cause I'm afraid I'll get tired of it. But everytime I listen to one version of Once In a Lifetime, I just have to listen to other live performances, the instrumental, etc. I don't know what's the magic in this song that always makes me want more
A tune that speaks the Old truth of life....?.never gets old. The first time I ever seen them on TV years ago was a revelation . No genre just good stuff.
He is an amazing voice of our generation. I've been stuck on his songs for years. And hope the rest of my life! Another example of musical genius right in front of us
You'll be hard pressed to see four guys, especially the drummer and percussionist, having so much fun performing. Plus those shirts give "garage band" a whole new meaning!
Uh no dumbass, first of all, Byrne was born in 1952. And second of all, adrenochrome isn’t the wonder drug you conspiracy theorists make it out to be. All it does is slow bleeding a bit
I'm South African and remember discovering this a while back when the old music channel used to play, it was a trippy music video but i was inlove with it.
It was weird how they just went away. Naked was good to my ears, but someone somewhere thought they were played out. I thought they still had room for more.
Every live version of this song that I've watched is always so entertaining, energetic, and uplifting! I've been watching David Byrne for over 40 years and the man has not lost a step! He's one of the best musicians and performance artists that I've had the privilege and pleasure of watching!
I remember first hearing this song in a Hollywood movie staring Richard Dreyfuss, Nick Nolte and Bette Midler (not forgetting the stunning Elizabeth Peña who sadly passed away in 2014) called Down and Out in Beverly Hills released in 1986, which was one of my favourite american style 80's films. *_Paul, (Liverpool , UK)_*
I've been a fan of Talking Heads since I saw "Stop Making Sense" in a little arts theater in Philly back when it was released. And while I will always love Jonathan Demme's version of David Byrne's vision for the film, this is one amazing performance. David really channels Adrian Belew, who obviously had a big influence during his short time with the band.
Whoulda' thunk, David Bryrne is reminding me of Lyle Lovett. What fun. And I would like to add that it remains over the years, this Austin City Limits program has consistently brought out the best of so many artists.
A wonderful performance by David Byrne & his band here. I also compare him to Van Morrison in this respect - as both give us all majestic & outstanding 'muse'. They do always bring out the best in their support artists, and with any instruments & vocals, when joining the leader in song. Everyone is always smiling and energetic. Yes, I find that's not always the case. And to borrow from Van here, I do only mean that to be a 'wonderful remark' by me.
@@deaterk I think they meant like most singers when they age their voice sounds more fragile and shakey. So they were surprised when his voice wasn't as bad as they thought. Idk just a guess.
did anybody listen to his performance at SNL few weeks ago? We got a bigger choir at the choruses. I hope they make a studio version of something similar; I know you all would like that better, so I hope they do make one. Haven't heard this song until few months ago and this sorf of music is not my style at all. Still I liked it a lot :/

He's still got the passion! I'm actually quite amazed. Sounds like he did in 83...wow.
Same as he ever was!
Yes
For a second I thought you said he was 83 years old. I was about to say holy shit he looks and sounds great. Lol
There is such an unique element of David Byrne's voice that knocks me out. A mixture of trembly vulnerability together with a reassuring strength...how he do that? LOVE
He has a mild form of Asperger's
Julie, that is a PERFECT description of what I hear in his voice too.

There is no old David Byrne. Just different levels of greyness in his hair.
who cares
Wtf when did I post this
yes

The peppiest existential crisis song. 😄😅🤔 I love this man and the energy of everyone in this performance! Wtf?!? Amazing. ❤
This quote is A STROKE OF GENIUS!!!! " EXISTENTIAL ".
yea 2022 to me this came out last week cant stop playin it
Sorry. No comparison to the original. The original band and the brilliant girl dancers and vocalists.
This might be the best performance I've ever seen. You can feel the energy.
Right?! Well said...
Right?!
David Byrne still has it. Want a great concert movie? Stop Making Sense ( 1984) one of the best if not the best concert movie ever
Holy hell the percussion in this performance is insane.
One of the most significant, truthful pieces of modern pop music released to the public....
there’s no feeling to describe watching david byrne preform... even if it’s through a phone screen : )
I listen to this every time I have reason to say “my god, what have I done.”
Which is a bit too often recently

One of the greatest songs of all time, David Byrne is truly a genius and a legend, Thank You My Byrne for this masterpiece of a song
David Byrne is like fine wine, he gets better with age...
Love this man : his art, his music , his style ❤️ and David’s quirky dance moves 💃
He looks good for his age, REALLY GOOD and sounds amazing.
He always looks so happy when he does the old Talking Heads songs, lets just cross our fingers and hope for a reunion
Tina Weymouth says that he does not return the friendship of the rest of the bandmates so I doubt it
Tina Weymouth keeps slagging him off publicly.
Bands often disband once they get everything they need. Same as it ever was.
He's The HOLDOUT WHY T.H. never got back TOGETHER.
I hope not. they speak shit of David whenever they have the opportunity, to a person with Aspergers it seems like a terrible relationship to have
His voice sounds good!!
This band are composed of super talented musicians, as well as incredible athletics.
That dreary little island at the ass end of Europe really has produced quite a few musical geniuses
You'll be hard pressed to see four guys, especially the drummer and percussionist, having so much fun performing. Plus those shirts give "garage band" a whole new meaning!
WHOA that was Killa..!
Great back up band
He looks awesome
He sounds GREAT..same as he always waz
Time isn't holding us! Pay attention. Don't let the days go by. Time isn't after us.
David Byrne is brilliant THANK YOU David for all the great musicTHANK YOU!!
Love this man : his art, his music , his style ❤️ and David’s quirky dance moves 💃
Every time I hear this song it makes me reflect on my life. Every time I reflect on my life this song plays in my head.
Wow he can still rip this song - fantastic!
He just looks like young David Byrne with grey hair but like his actual face doesn't age
Never was a cocaine drinking junk food freak like Chris
Same as it ever was ❤️
It's called moisturizer.
Uh no dumbass, first of all, Byrne was born in 1952. And second of all, adrenochrome isn’t the wonder drug you conspiracy theorists make it out to be. All it does is slow bleeding a bit
Wow...Good one. I shoulda thought of...:)@@RachelPieruccini
Wow, everyone was having fun!
saw him on Saturday night live two weeks ago Had never heard of him but now obsessed .He is a consummate artist two art schools studied opera
I'm South African and remember discovering this a while back when the old music channel used to play, it was a trippy music video but i was inlove with it.
O love songs of Mr. David Byrne from Scotland around the World !
Born in Scotland......so cool this dude.
His voice sounds good!!
Wow that is great with three sets of drums.
what a fascinating life he must live
Music will never be the same, such an awesome song!!!
I love the "country preacher" tone of this.
it was the style he was going for actually
@@vendora1 I always figured he was inspired by the goofy 2AM televangelists of the 80s. It's so perfect.
Once in A Lifetime David Byrne lives through his music forever.
Man, I really miss Talking Heads (I like this performance though)
TokyoBlue i dont know? Talking Heads and then Talking Heads 2.0...Talking Heads 2.0 for me
It was weird how they just went away. Naked was good to my ears, but someone somewhere thought they were played out. I thought they still had room for more.
Just like Paul McArthney ... LOL !!!
Same as it ever was - but missing the arm chop :-)))
and the keyboardist
Yesss! I'm the only one I've ever known to comment on the arm chop. I always found it so weird and I loved it!

I just wish he would play with the original band, but I guess he told them he didn't want to play with them anymore :/

wasn't Elizabeth Pena in Jacob's Ladder? so sad. i @ ---- V ------ @
Loved this song forever 💕thank you Mr Byrne
One of the best Live Performance i ever hear and see, thank you @all Musican with greetings from Germany

this song has so much energy.
David out of this world
A well crafted and produced song
Those old days of Talking Heads live with a full band lots of guitars keys background vocals etc were incredible
Needs more arm chopping
Let’s here it for his band too, great accompaniment !!
A time when music was real.
2:56 ... that moment.
His voice sounds good!!
Man, I really miss Talking Heads (I like this performance though)
hes so happy in this performance :D i love it

Sad that he can't reconcile with the band. Think how special and how much love it would bring to the legions of fans.
Love this!
David didn't have a stroke while singing the song 0/10
that's a true timeless song, never gets old...
A time when music was real.
Same as it ever wasn't before yet, again.🤪✌️😮😮😮❤️A perennial. ❤️
Love those drummers!!!!
Love you brother keep on jamming
Ok...so I never thought I would see David Byrne of the Talking heads performing on Austin City Limits. Wow
This is fricken awesome
He put more soul into it ,yeah!
Same As It Ever Was ...... the best singer in the world
Music is amazing...very talented 🥁🥁🥁
Excellent !!!
Shortly after 9/11 this happened. Amazing
Wow that is great with three sets of drums.
Mitici !!!!
I didn't expect him to be that loud
I didn't expect him to be that good. Sounds exactly as he did 35 years ago.
@@callmemastermaster9875 I saw him November last year. I was amazed with how good his voice was.
Sam Carroll - Why is that?
@@deaterk I think they meant like most singers when they age their voice sounds more fragile and shakey. So they were surprised when his voice wasn't as bad as they thought. Idk just a guess.
MyNose IsClogged - fair enough! 😊👍
so good omg
That dude is awesome crazy..love it 😆😆😆👍👍👍
Brilliant!
David Byrne for president 2020
I love Talking Heads. This might be their best song. You can decipher every nuance of every syllable in every word! What the heck is it about?
traps of Conformity...? precious Time slipping away..?
..Illusions of Security...Regrets
He was watching preachers on tv when he wrote the song. its just a mash up of phrases that they use. genius
There is water...at the bottom of the ocean.
How did I get here?!
Awesome! Sounds great. Wonderful performance.
I listen to a lot of music. And this is the best song in the collection
My favourite song of all time 🇬🇧
Holy shit! Still awesome!!
How has David Byrne not done the soundtrack to a film based on a Kurt Vonnegut story? They were totally made for each other.
Gerald King Funny, he and the Heads always make me think of Donald Barthelme.
Outstanding is always fabulous band excellent energy I love you
damn good!
David Hilliard what a drummer from out of this world Love him Don't even know him
Watching, listening and enjoying this in 2021 :)
