UNBELIEVALBE. DAVID BYRNE HAS NOT LOST THE SLIGHTEST TOUCH IN HIS VOICE!!!!

[@jeffsims8270]

He's an extra-ordinary guy, CRUSHIN' IT ON STAGE!!!

[@philodox7599]

Yes he has, Are you kidding?

[@ShatteredGlass364]

He has, and it’s spelled “Unbelievable.”

[@WiloPolis03]

Imagine being 70 and still kicking this much ass

[@bryangarnet3553]

I and my daughter were at the Leeds gig and when he played the opening chords of this I thought that may explode with the joy of it all...........Bless her,she was weaned while listening to Talking Heads......on the 2nd Feb 2023 she will be 31

[@jennawren1672]

David Byrne is timeless

[@noahreaves8235]

It’s like 20 slightly different David Byrnes on one stage 🤣 it’s perfect

[@agakavian]

[@christelvandervelde7120]

Prachtige show

[@omarcaparachin4697]

David Byrne has no expiration date,awesome, God bless U.

[@stevelamb2712]

That beautiful silver suit jacket, hair cut and burgundy gutair. Excellence.

[@RH-iq3wz]

his voice is just perfect still

[@DoYouLikeMyVest]

YEEESSS! Soon as he opened his mouth, I gasped! David is fkn incredible. He's as amazing as ever. I've had a crush on that man since I was a kid & now as a 30yr old, that crush is just as strong lol

[@Ami483]

I'm 30.. Sooo.in love❤

[@Vanessa-yq1lo]

I just ❤n will always ❤every song written for these dudes...so young in the 80z with no clue what fame really is! Thanks to you tube! Now I can always plug times with the Olds whenever n know what it all ment..so much learnt from relistening to all their jams... HOT religions 😂

[@Rose-yj1bi]

I saw the musical in Broadway two weeks ago and I still can't get over it 😃 It's so perfect. I left the theatre loving him even more ❤️

[@neildecker3061]

Agreed. Took my 20 yr old daughter and we both agreed one of the best live shows ever.

[@WiloPolis03]

Saw it with my family when we were visiting NYC over a break, I remember I was dealing with some anxiety at the time and it was *exactly* what I needed. And yeah my respect for David Byrne went through the roof lol

[@Guitar6ty]

Still sounds as fresh and original as it did the 1980s Awesome art band and musicians.

[@donnadynes7988]

David Byrne sounds phenomenal!!!

[@benrobinson4526]

Was in NYC a few years ago and thought I jagged some tix for the broadway show. But it wasn’t to be and seeing these vids confirms what I knew I missed out on. What a performance! Pure class David Byrne.

[@ephraimbrownmusic]

This is totally Next Level shit right here.. Leave it to David Byrne to Totally reinvent our understanding of a live musical performance.. Just the logistics and choreography involved are the bomb.

[@Ariadne76-k3d]

I love how he has everyone spaced out so they are all equal!

[@bobjohnson9497]

i love this film and concert it is brilliant

[@t.h.9187]

If David Byrne ever comes to Germany I would do everything to join his show! Love his Musik since the 80s and it is so amazing that he still sounds like the young DB! Amazing!

[@jpfrankebln]

Mit der Show war er in Europa, Deuschland

[@Nillbor9641]

He still sounds so good

[@megalon73]

I never get tired of watching this Broadway on HBO MAX. But I bet it's even more fun when your really there! Man I wish I can see this live in LA one day.

[@runninman61]

I saw him in MInneapolis on tour. It was absolutely mind blowing.

[@megalon73]

@@runninman61 Wish they can come to Palm Springs. That would be nice. Since I live in a crappy small town. It would take me 3 hours to get to Palm Springs.

[@sjn9195]

this might be the most sublime thing ever

[@MariekeKopinskaya]

Love the fact about his voice, he sounds just like when he was young

[@BartvanderHorst]

Wow that is one hell of a performance!

[@DavidBuggle]

wish i had the cash to go see him play one day it would be a dream come true

[@annierothenbury1315]

Fabulous🙌

[@cornelisvisser8196]

First i see this video....genial. ....i must see Spike Lee s movie

[@shifumilazzo]

genio de la musica. feliciaciones , sigue adelante con ese espitritu!!!

[@nickywilks7928]

Wow absolutely brilliant!

[@SpiritGirlSF]

David still sounds good with his powerful voice and theatrics. And we have to love his truthful lyrics telling us that we're in for nasty weather, thanks for the warning David. Many songs and music videos from the 80s tell truth only we don't get it until its pointed out. Kate Bush "Experiment IV." is a good one as well. Watch out you might get what you're after Boom babies strange but not a stranger I'm an ordinary guy Burning down the house Hold tight wait till the party's over Hold tight We're in for nasty weather There has got to be a way Burning down the house Here's your ticket pack your bag Time for jumpin' overboard The transportation is here Close enough but not too far, Maybe you know where you are Fightin' fire with fire All wet! Hey you might need a raincoat Shakedown! Dreams walking in broad daylight Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees Burning down the house It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself Gonna come in first place People on their way to work and baby what did you except Gonna burst into flame My house! Is out of the ordinary That's right! Don't wanna hurt nobody Some things sure can sweep me off my feet Burning down the house No visible means of support and you have not seen nothin' yet Everything's stuck together And I don't know what you expect starring into the TV set Fighting fire with fire

[@danieldore91]

Brilliant, innovative!

[@GarageBeverages]

How is this innovative? Can you please explain? All I see is people standing around playing a song like a normal matching band.

[@bazannn3072]

@@GarageBeverages I just learned of this show and came randomly across this comment, lol. My understanding is this was a pretty massive technological challenge pulling off a "marching band" with a bunch of electric instruments. They used quite a bit of RF transmitters and other tricks to pull off the music sounding so good despite having no cables on stage. It seems pretty impressive/innovative to me anyways.

[@johnblackburn2060]

Gawd I miss Talking Heads.

[@maryellenlouvelle4475]

Still has it, 😊

[@markhigh6271]

David Byrne is to Art as Einstein is to physics.

[@andreal.1981]

Yeah…. No.

[@JaCapella]

At that house

[@tonyg3637]

[@briancrawford69]

Not a huge talking heads fan but this is pretty unique and creative

[@nsbd90now]

IT'S NOT THE WHOLE SONG!!! Wy do this to me??

[@motopazury]

Fajny

[@MrTimsvids]

All very good, but the guy with the makeup is getting right under my skin, keeps popping up on all the tubes, am i missing something?

[@marekwaligora4420]

Kapitalny koncert

[@scottm1742]

Takes an army of barefoot hipsters to replicate what Jerry, Tina and Chris could do....

[@colleentretter8037]

I saw this show from the front row. Been a TH fan my whole life. I can promise you this show was the greatest thing I've seen on stage, ever. This show wasn't trying to replicate anything. It was one hundred percent it's own thing, and profound. I've been reflecting on it for years. I can't say that about any other concert, and I've seen many.

[@johnshea4436]

Hey what do you know, he CAN sing in tune sometimes!

[@Crypticwitchery]

God?

[@GarageBeverages]

I keep trying to find a clip of this show that explains how people can call this genius....because I can't find anything.

[@polishrocker93]

How about you find me a band this large that plays with this kind of precision while doing complex choreography. Also, educate yourself to see musical innovation because you are musically blind and deaf.

[@GarageBeverages]

@@polishrocker93 the music isn't the issue you hotdog. I'm a musician. The music is fine. I just don't see how people can call this genius that's all. Explain what makes it genius.

[@jimmyherring7163]

@@GarageBeverages David byrne is a genius in general.. that's the point.. anything he touches is pure magic.. If you can't see or appreciate him that's perfectly ok

[@nickywilks7928]

Keep looking and you will find.

[@iansteel6403]

The Talking Heads were always like an inside joke nobody would explain to you, at least for me. I love dance music, but their music always seemed too dull for me, though I never met anyone who was sober that recommended them so that could have something to do with it...

[@steveshannon8961]

dont know about that male dancer tho...

[@pinatacolada7986]

It seems diversity was one of their priorities. Shame.

[@EsiehB]

Terrible

[@andysmith6218]

Happy to do TH stuff but not with the other three. Sad.
