Talking Heads - Life During Wartime( LIVE )Los Angeles '83 REACTION!! 

This concert "Stop Making Sense" is one of the best live show ever! "Psycho Killer" is another great song from them.

You must watch the whole film this is from (Stop Making Sense); even if you aren't a Talking Heads fan, it's guaranteed a brilliant concert/concept film.

The best part was the unexpected visitor. What a beautiful child.

Check out this whole concert!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn I can’t believe someone is finally reacting to this performance. The whole show is stellar

7:36 - Holy cow is that a cute kid!

Talking Heads definitely a unique band! Definitely check out "Wild Wild Life" and "Once In A LIfetime" videos, and "Burning Down The House", one of their most popular songs.

"I've change my hairstyle... so many times now... I don't know what I look like!"

I was not expecting this song to result in the most adorable reaction to date.

Great reaction to TALKING HEADS. Thank you.

Tina Weymouth has to be the funkiest bass player ever.

I think the running just signifies that nothing stands still in war, or everyone becomes a "headless chicken". I really like how he sprawls on the floor, before singing downwards and throwing the stand.

I discovered the Talking Heads when I was in college. I heard music like I had never heard before walking past Mikey’s room. Went in and listened to the whole Remain in the light album. A couple of years later I broke off my engagement with my High School sweetheart and came to grips with my sexuality after listening to ‘Once in a lifetime’ about 100 times. I decided I wasn’t going to go though my life and wake up one day and have to say to myself, “My God what have a I done”. Now at 60 I can say that this changed the course of my life. I saw the “Stop Making Sense concert love at the Greek in LA in 1983 and it is to this days one of my favorite concerts. They may not be everyone’s cup,of tea but they will always be one of my favorites.

Cute baby boy! Life gets in the way, and its all right!

If you aren't smiling you aren't alive. I cannot stop smiling. It is pure joy.

The lead singer is David Byrne and he’s going to be the musical guest later on this month on Saturday Night Live. Great band, great song. Love your reaction.

I actually appreciate you including your son’s interruption instead of just running him off ❤️

Punk Funk. This entire concert is a masterpiece.

I saw them back in the 80’s!! One of the best concerts I ever saw! ❤️

The dancers are outstanding. 💗

Beautiful child. Best ever!

Check out "Genius of Love" by the Tom Tom Club (2 members of the Talking Heads). And what a cute kid!

My very favorite version of this song. So glad she liked it ..... Adorable child btw .....

This is one of THE great bands ! thank you ! peace x

Notice the stage - you don't see a single amp anywhere and all the lights are white. Both highly unusual at a rock concert. One of the greatest funk masters ever, Bernie Worell, is on synthesizers. Every band member wears simple plain solid colored clothing.

"Road to Nowhere" "don't fence me in". Such a GREAT band...

They r always left in the most amazing way. Burning down the House is my fav...Love The Talking Heads

Best live concert video ever made! Period!!

You should watch this whole concert movie, Stop Making Sense, it's amazing.

I went to see them, cir 93' NC, didn't know what to expect. Started the show 20-30min of acoustic solo, so relaxing and on key, almost put you to sleep. THEN ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE!! AMAZING contrast!

Saw Talking heads in the early 80’s. They had brought out 12 extra musicians for the concert......awesome

They were running because it is fun and entertaining. No hidden meaning 😄

Your lil boy is so precious!!🥰 Love Taking Heads!!!

Just when I thought I couldn’t like you more - this is your best reaction and that’s exactly how Talking Heads makes me feel too. Definitely watch this film in its entirety. It was directed by Jonathan Demme and is considered one of the best concert films ever, if not THE best.

Great reaction to a great song! Talking Heads were very popular in the Eighties. Their biggest hit was "Burning Down the House," which you will love, if you hadn't heard it already. One of my favorites by them was their first hit "Psycho Killer." The video you watched was from their award winning documentary of their "Stop Making Sense" tour.

Your baby is KEWT!!! The Talking Heads RULE!

Your child is the next generation Reacter. So sweet. Of course you had the tune in your headset. But him pretend running was AWESOME. PLAY THIS WHEN HE'S OLDER 💕💕💃🕺

Omg the talking heads are an amazing group! Soooo many great songs, they were the cutting edge back in the day. Super cute baby lol...♡

I have watched your reactions and I have liked them very much, but your human kindness to your young child walking in on you will never leave me. :)

awwww....that lil child pupper is the most adorable!!!!!!!!! I'm dead from cute. Love those curls. My little one had those curls at that age

Gotta see the whole concert which is a slow buildup from solo acoustic with boom box to full band. Amazing concert film.

This might be the greatest concert film ever...quality is amazing

I saw them in concert, they never disappoint .. my favorite songs from them is called "once in a lifetime". And "psycho killer". The are underrated

You’ll love talking heads once-in-a-lifetime. Loved your reaction.

Was never a huge fan but came across this concert on some music channel on a ps4 app. Needless to say it was awesome and I couldn’t stop watching...what a show!!

A great group. One of the best of the 80's. David Byrne had a unique dance style in all of his performances.

whomever recommended this one is a kindred spirit for sure. somehow i never hear anyone else talking about this one.

Awesone song and reaction!! OMG, what a cute little man!

David Byrne has said he got the idea for the song from watching the club kids in NYC and comparing them to what people go through in war torn parts of the world. Mudd Club and CBGB (no longer in existence) were clubs where Talking Heads played.

OMG! I love it when your kids come in while you're recording. You are a fantastic Mommy! Great job! ❤

Thank you, awesome reaction and cute kid. I think that's the most you've chair danced to a song to date.

David Byrne is a genius...this must be the place, and road to nowhere are probably my favorites.

I absolutely love watching you reacting to old school music. I loved seeing your son pop in to visit too! You strike me as a hopeless romantic, someone I wish I could have swooned in a song to watch you melt! If that good looking little man is any indication, you dont mind going a little snowblind...

India you are freaking brilliant. Cute too. I agree with your analysis of running. The song came to being when Talking Heads were playing at a popular NYC club. Lead singer David Byrne looked around at all the kids drinking and dancing and schmoozing -- and imagine how different they'd be acting if war was forced upon them.

My first time to listen to this band ,cute baby just like it's mom thanks for what you do

You can listen to every song of their's and every single song is completely different, but you know it's them. And your son is such a cute kid. So sweet. He just wants to help his mommy react to the videos. I bet he's got you wrapped around his finger.

One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite groups.

And your adorable kid steals the show!

Thank you. This is probably my favorite Talking Heads, performance. They aren't just music but performance art as well. Loved it!

It’s so inspiring to watch someone that appreciates music in the way that you do...Music is clearly in your soul...Love it!!!

India,, you think "Life During War time" is about....war. These guys were early new wave. I saw them live. Stunning.

Glad you reacted to this one. Fun song, fun band, fun reaction. Cute kid.

Folks..with her reaction to this video...I think we just gained one more Talking Heads fan..good for you..from a fan...!!!

This concert film was directed by Jonathan Demme, known for The Silence of the Lambs as well as Philadelphia. You need to see the whole thing, it is an amazing performance.

I love your reactions! Not just to the song, but to your family! That was awesome and real...♥️

Check out "Burning Down The House" saw these guys in Central Park in 79 or 80 (?). Fabulous!

India we had so many great songs in the day.sooo much memories that's a blast frm the past

Great reaction great song beautiful as always

brilliant band, brilliant song. Great reaction!

Great reaction @IndiaReacts! Talking Heads were definitely a unique and energetic band. Eclectic, quirky, high energy college "art band" who had their own niche in the 80s new wave scene. In the 80s, aerobics/ aerobic dancing was a good way to engage the audience and inspire everyone to join in. If you watch their concert film, Stop Making Sense, you'll see just how they use "motion to create emotion". Good singers know how important that is to their performance. Check out their songs "Burning Down the House", "My Girlfriend is Better", "Once in a Lifetime"... You'll be amazed!

That whole concert movie is worth a watch, because the whole presentation from start to finish is planned out.

This whole concert is a masterpiece. Making Flippy Floppy/ This Must Be the Place are my favs from the performance.

Nice review! Adorable child! Talking Heads have so many great songs. My favorite is "This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)".

andTalking Heads were fricking mindblowing!

Love having your son stop in and say hi! nice.

Have loved this band for 40 some years, loved your reaction to the song, and loved your beautiful child's smooth entrance.

I’ve loved your reaction videos for a few years. You’re the best! You seem to be one of the few who dig deep into the lyrics. Love your baby. ❤️

Love your reaction. Your kid is very cute and the tune is amazing. There is a tremendous amount of poetry and art in Talking Heads. Load to ways to relate. I'd love to see your reaction to so much Talking Heads music..

In the 80s this video (Stop Making Sense) was playing in alternative cinemas. I went there with a friend of mine. Next to us were sitting teachers of our own high school.

This has to be one of the, or the, most iconic performances ever, and the fact your child interrupted is completely understandable.

As a new subscriber I must say, keep on discovering the majic of the world's music, the 20th century frikken rocked!!! Edit~ Look later, listen more :)

I love how simple but effective David Byrne keeps all the movements.

Oh my god your baby is beautiful and that smile! The running in place lol

Great band ... great video ... great reaction !!

I'd forgotten just how good this group was.

Your initial reaction to David Byrne is priceless. You can read songs so well India.

AT LAST you found Talking Heads. This is from the album 'Stop Making Sense'. It's available on DVD, so all the tracks will be available for reaction. All are worth it & should be done. The whole concert is amazing, Talking Heads were special.

LOL. I really enjoyed your critique but your little boy busting in was hilarious. He did a great job mimicking the running in the video. Good job to the both of you!

couple more Talking Heads songs for you: We're on the Road to Nowhere and Wild wild life.

Great reaction to the amazing Talking Heads! My daughter is 24 and loves the TH's. Your energy while reacting is fun to watch 🤪

This might be my fave reaction of yours yet! Your expressions were awesome!

I got to see this tour live. Awesome show. Your interpretation is closer than you think. Very good read.

OMG! Great choice of a song for your reaction! I used to go see them at CBGB about a million years ago. And the two of you are adorable!

What an adorable baby! This is from the movie stop making sense. It’s a movie of the concert, not just a live concert. They come out one by one as the songs go on. It’s amazing! You should watch it, I think he would really enjoy it.

Your boy is adorable although staying quiet doesn't seem to be his strong point. So cute. Yes that concert film is one of the best ever made, covers all their hits and their cover of 'Take Me to the River' is brilliant too (an Al Green song, I hope you know his music). There are only 4 members in the band, the rest are there for the tour/film to reproduce the sound of the albums.

great reaction, cute kid., great mum.

This wasn't about riots in Houston, Detroit, Pittsburg PA. Those cities got nuked. This was 1983, the cold war was still very real. I was six years old in 83, nuclear war was my biggest fear. This was my first favorite band, I had an older brother that played the record all the time.

Kinda like an awesome jam that collided with an aerobics class!

Love the Talking Heads. Their music was so unique for the times. More, please!

Hahaha!! Love your reaction! Your expressions are priceless! 😂😂

One of those wonderful things that we will never see live again. Luckily we have these videos, even if some people should be eternal!
