@markb20 Год назад

Very enjoyable interview thanks to both of these creative guys. Back in the 1980s David was perceived as this amazing artist who was not easy to work with. It's so cool to see how easy going and approachable he's become. But both guys make universal points about today's world of social media- HOW does one make it in comedy or music today? And the overwhelming amount of info, music, entertainment, etc. Such is reality.

@RioRav Год назад

I would imagine since he is autistic that he would've still had issues with learning how to work with and control parts of it. Many autistic people can learn strategies and coping skills as they age but other stressors can mean that few get to be that age unfortunately. Of course with being such a success he would also have more ability to do whatever he likes and minimize stress about finances and recovery by being alone as much as he wants to.

@markb20 Год назад

@@RioRav Never knew David Byrne was autistic. I just finished reading up on it and he says it probably affected his communication skills while aiding his music, allowing him to focus better. Thanks for the update.

@Adam-kn3tv 9 месяцев назад

@@markb20just to further add, after David learned of his autism and began mentioning it publicly, he was able to reconcile with the band. They all finally understood that much of the interpersonal problems were a result of David having no clue that he was autistic and not really understanding the effects his actions had on others. My understanding is they get along very well these days and all the past animosity is behind them.

@dmgcaster904 Год назад

It really is too bad. He told Chris Frianz to stop asking to get the band back together because he would never agree to it. Instead of making new Talking Heads music Byrne would rather rehash his greatest hits in a Broadway format in order to garner acclaim from the press and critics alike. Snooze.

@@dmgcaster904 Yeah. I get not getting together for the big "money grab nostalgia tour"...there are too many of those. But maybe if they played like 4 US dates for a charity cause they believed in. That's why it was nice to see them together at the RnR HOF.

I was a huge Talking Heads fan when I was a teenager. I even had a book about them. In it, if I remember correctly, it said that Psycho Killer was written by the band putting different sentences on little pieces of paper, then mixing them up and picking out the sentences of the song at random.

About 5:40 in they talk about there being _so_ _much_ music (and other things). I had this epiphany not long ago myself. If you search "WABC- 7- 29- 70" here on the 'tube, you will find a ~3-hour recording of 77 WABC ("Musicradio!") on a random morning in July of 1970. While I was basking in nostalgia, and listening to cigarette ads, I realized that, holy cow, WABC's play list was SO WIDE ... and then I realized that the station could not play a lot of songs. 53 years' worth in fact. Because the music didn't yet exist. In fact, they really only had about 15 years' worth to choose from - and that was it. As Conan says - _now_ , you can immerse yourself in a single genre and never look at anything else. Couldn't do that in 1970.

@kevinn1158 Год назад

I had a guy who was maybe 8 yrs older than me who was into music. I might have been 14 or 15 when I heard him playing more songs about buildings and food on his car stereo while he washed his car, and I thought, who in the world was that? 1978-9ish as I remember. That was my first Talking Heads album. I still have that album. That guy across the street was my cool music dealer. He played Elvis Costello, UB40, The Specials, The Jam, Devo.... I ended up seeing the Talking heads at the2nd Police picnic here in Toronto 1982. Can you imagine? The tickets were 20-22 bucks, English beat, Joan Jet, Flock of Seagulls, Talking heads and the Police. 20 bucks wouldn't buy you a beer at a concert now. LOL. I get there's inflation, but the whole ticket marketing thing nowadays is just stupid. Horrible for the real fans. My 15 yr old daughter wants to see a concert but it's insane now.

There's a lot of bands you get into, then get out of over the years. David and Talking Heads is not one of those bands. I've been listneing to his music since I've been a teenager and their music just keeps getting better to me with age. It's kind of a miracle I got into them when I look back at some of the music I listened to then. Which I feel embarrassed about now. I grew up in the early-00s so a lot of Numetal and junk like that..

@itnefer4787 Год назад

As much as I like Conan, I think it was a very poor interview, at least the clip herein. All we hear is Conan talking about himself, never allowing Byrne to elaborate, like when he cut him off when he started talking about his 'stilted answers' to Letterman's question. It would be nice to follow up about that performance. But we got "I remember having no judgement about it". What??? Having a guest like that and asking him an old and worn out question about who he liked as a young musician is low-effort. You don't even have to be prepared or know anything about the guest. What's the next one on the list? "How did you start out?" or "What do you think about current music?" Meh...

@stefanmarraccini8646 Год назад

@_Ag- 3 месяца назад

I think his impulse is to take the focus a bit when he knows his guest is uncomfortable under the magnifying glass. His sense for social graces trumps a host’s selfish (?) pursuit of a “raw” interview, in other words. I can appreciate that he sees guests as people, rather than as subjects to exploit per se. But I do wish he would have had some provocative and especially unusual questions prepared that David would have been excited to answer, then social lubricant wouldn’t have been so necessary.
