A Certain Ratio - Houses In Motion (Official Video)

[@Slay_333R]

It's a rare gem of early Manchester times that still gives us goosebumps. 🎉❤

[@whiteydiamond]

This video compliments the song so well

[@opinion3258]

ACR at their best. Kudos to dancers, and the work that went in this video. A visual treat!

[@mitchellmichael1]

It just proves how ahead of their time they were....stunning...

[@wills4794]

Saw a Certain Ratio play this live last night in Manchester, it was awesome!

[@Perfumedradio01]

i'm one who has everything ACR have recorded since 1979 when i 1st found them...and stayed with for decades..in my music radio shows when i play ACR i state that A Certain Ratio are my go to for UK experimental funk delicious dark funk and atmospheres. About bloody time they got the recognition, long over due, and makes this old fart grin in smugness..see I told ya! ACR have no peer in music and the new generations have discovered treasure..and 1 great example right here.

[@HerStoryofMusic]

Friend just called this out and as a complete heartfelt fan of Talking Heads, as well as of memorable, deep, abstract and joyful dance➡️➡️ this 😅🎶💗 Perfection. Thank you very much 🤍

[@EmpoerterGeisterfahrer]

Had a record from them back then. Did not think about them for >30 years, woke up tonight, suddenly the band name popped up in my head and here we are. Still a great band.

[@mrphic69]

Faut oser une reprise des Talking Heads sans dénaturer le morceau , superbe !!!!!

[@MultiMickyblue]

Whole lotta love , groove on

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Oooo nice cover

[@ruffdice]

I like this effort and especially the video. Halfway through I find myself yearning for the original but get drawn back in. Incredible how we're still seeing so many original TH covers.

[@donello430]

I was on a random ACR kick lately and now out of nowhere they release a new video! And it's good! Love ACR

[@DaveSmedleyis93]

This is great!!! I love Talking Heads and I love A Certain Ratio. While I'd always pick the original, this is a wonderful cover and so very cool. Long live ACR.

[@michaeldaly1459]

Plus the Eno connection. He co-wrote and produced this and ACR take their name from an Eno lyric.

[@guillemmurphy]

certainly but this version is so interesting

[@DaveSmedleyis93]

@@omariavi6598 wow what a horrible thing to do.

[@wbertie2604]

I much prefer this to the original.

[@paulbruce6222]

Just brilliant - so cool does the track a great justice - does not wreck it (like so many covers) respects the original - and builds on it / 'the groove' !

[@GMDark]

Cool, hadn't thought about them for years, was reminded of many great bands while reading the book "Foreground Music," by Grahm Duff.

[@Yvesdebxl]

I love this song

[@andygo]

whole lotta love

[@andrewhurst9823]

Superb. Like contemporary art, timeless.

[@mortenreippuertknudsen3576]

excelent cover of a unique masterpiece and an excellent video.

[@bobbyfeather1]

Very cool.

[@Kaltelua]

Damn, the visuals and the beat... Amazing!!!

[@Kaltelua]

I kinda like this a lil bit more that the one from TH!

[@dani_umpi]

me encanta. buenísimo

[@michaelszkwrk8]

This is a great cover of a great song!!!

[@paolostopardi3807]

Grandi e raffinati, come sempre.

[@Joy----]

For a long time I felt Without style and grace Wearing shoes with no socks In cold weather I knew my heart Was in the right place I knew I'd be able To do these things And as we watch him Digging his own grave It is important to know That was where he's at He can't afford to stop That is what he believe He'll keep on digging For a thousand years I'm walking a line I'm thinking about empty motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way (no time to begin) This isn't the time (so nothing was done) Not talking about (not many at all) I'm turning around (no trouble at all) You notice there's nothing around you, 'round you I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve Never get to say much Never get to talk Tell us a little bit But not too much Right about then Is where she give up She has closed her eyes She has give up hope I'm walking a line I hate to be dreaming in motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way (no time to begin) This isn't the time (so nothing was done) Not talking about (not many at all) I'm turning around (no trouble at all) I'm keeping my fingers behind me, 'hind me I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve I'm walking a line I'm visiting houses in motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way (no time to begin) This isn't the time (so nothing was done) Not talking about (not many at all) I'm turning around (no trouble at all) Two different houses surround you, 'round you I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve . ______________________________________________________

[@leolearchi7405]

Un grande classico dei Talking Heads riletto con passione, talento insuperabile e personalità...straordinari !

[@HoldenSmith100]

Brilliant editing!

[@andywhitewhitewriting]

Stunning!

[@69dodgy69]

It's always great to hear another artist's take on Talking Heads. Loving it!

[@jonanasbananas2944]

I love

[@davel.9467]

Been listening to ACR since about 1980 or '81. They were pure fire then, they're pure fire now.

[@shelfcompact]

Nice to hear this finally. And the dancers were great.

[@Ridley-Walker]

just awesome....

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Wow brave move to cover this...I like it

[@davidellis5141]

I'm walking the line.. Funky & honorable version. 😎 🎷 ! Lost 💎.

[@smguy7]

This is just too good! Exciting, fun and so fucking groovy!

[@Pauldjreadman]

Lovely stuff. This is what I like. Love the baseline.

[@glennkammerer795]

Great cover. Excellent!

[@dariuszjablonski1969]

finally a fresh approach after years

[@HeadRush-yj4fy]

I had no idea how much I wanted this until I got it

[@jgdc2023]

Excellent cover. Glad to see ACR getting attention. One of the best bands of that time and place.

[@Ridley-Walker]

Awesome....

[@ClueSign]

They still got it

[@escame82]

Inmortal music.

[@antoniomorenorubio6655]

Espectacular.....😎👍

[@traceydonnelly1937]

Epic track...

[@TheSlowMusicMovement]

Music that can get me moving on a Sunday morning is the ultimate road test. I'm filing this under Slow Dance classics.

[@Oseanacoceanblue]

These guys are as old as joy division so cool to see there making damn cool music

[@pavlecetkovic8890]

Talking Heads ♥️

[@EuropeanMedia]

Brilliant!

[@FENBASS100]

Fcuk yeah! great cover by the ACR celebrating 40yrs with new release MAy ‘19

[@Vsevolod-n2e]

Ohh, every time i hear Talking Heads i have joyfull tears

[@fictitiousfictitious8964]

Very yes

[@jerryramsey7974]

Always enjoyed that bass line by A CERTAIN RATIO...

[@TheSeagull62]

dope tune !!!

[@KeoM66]

ACR brilliant as usual.

[@koolrockradio]

So KOOL!!

[@gws1967]

Not easy cover TH 👍 great job

[@Rhnoir]

Esa línea de bajo es totalmente exquisita. El sonido ACR jamás envejecerá, es atemporal.

[@tolpacourt]

That bass guitar, though. Unmistakable.

[@terrymccann4259]

remain the light

[@edcool77]

A Certain Ratio: Making Intelligent & Cool music since 40 years ago

[@AndrewWells]

Of course Byrne would be the first to admit this record would never exist without Factory and ACR... several tracks off of RIL are direct tributes to ACR and Joy Division...

[@harrisonanddunkley]

Bass!

[@robnagy5157]

I just need the official audio of this track

[@BIG_MUNKY]

Great great great great great cover, not an easy task to cover Talking Heads right, but ACR did it with graceful class.

[@richardkolnsberg4418]

Full circle! TH influenced by ACR and ACR covering TH!

[@Koshirozation]

i agree with the comments, not an easy task, but bravo and this is wondeful!!

[@keith-leecastle6700]

Such a great band…..

[@Warp75]

Great band.

[@djbethell]

Joy

[@steadyed]

Rad!

[@richardjames1946]

It rocks then rolls

[@TheopticnerveX]

The dancers give this Talking Heads cover a very Cross-Eyed and Painless vibe.

[@beattaste5446]

Spettacolare

[@Dan-y6l3k]

This is fucking awesome!

[@carlospires7411]

Fantástico!!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@epithalamia]

Here before the million :]

[@MartinHannett_]

Produced by me, hence why it sounds a bit purple. 👌 😎

[@js1459]

Oh my gosh they still make music?

[@23angelful]

This is absolute genius,can I hear 23 Skidoo samples?

[@martinmoscrop8641]

Certainly no 23 Skidoo samples

[@saraluuuu]

I think that the sound of A certain ratio makes more sense in 2019 than it did back then

[@BoneTone1961]

You know the song is 40 years old ?

[@markriffey8899]

I don’t know what making sense means but it still sounds fresh in 2023

[@isaiasquezada5547]

This song si of talking heads

[@arcrs40]

yesssssss likeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@paulfox5493]

Only acr could pull this off

[@Kkidzz]

Mr. Murphy’s head will explode............if it has’nt already.

[@nicholas3125]

he might be here reading this :o

[@AtalMusic]

I like this a lot. I think I recognize Jez doing the backing vocals but who's doing the singing/talking? Simon Topping?

[@martinmoscrop8641]

It's all Jez on vocals

[@JoelLinus]

Where is the action

[@Kkidzz]

46Karat Gold

[@fryewerk]

Ah, it's a shame Grace Jones didn't do the vocal! So strange she was at the session but didn't follow through. I think she would have elevated it. Dig the Martin Hannett, always...

[@professormause]

Pretty goude for a run through. "Get back in here woman and finish recording this NOW !" Yeah, I can see that happening. This is a guide vocal ?

[@vegetableman5062]

Sounding like on one else - except Talking Heads maybe...

[@blahblahh1507]

I thought Night Court was going to come on for a minute
