MGMT - This Must be the Place (Talking Heads)

first concert of mgmt great sound

MGMT needs a movie made about their come up. I find them so fascinating.

[@krilla]

as a Connecticut native I am always surprised when I'm reminded this was filmed at Wesleyan lol.

[@payno6643]

Talking Heads is not an easy band to cover. David Byrne is a genius. I love this version. Much respect

[@r.l.browning1538]

In years we will say the same about mgmt. Ever cover flash delirium?

[@jasonedenilson]

R.L. Browning people can’t even cover electric feel right

[@willritter4076]

I'd be honored if some Talking Heads & MGMT fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of THIS MUST BE THE PLACE (re-interpreted as a ballad) on my YT channel in tribute to one of the most unique & iconic bands of the late 70s/early 80s era. Raw acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.

[@yehboi6646]

payno66 right? How do you cover this must be place?

[@QweenQrocodile]

Lol this was actually a purposefully shity cover, they did a lot of stuff like this is a joke when they were in college

[@SuperCameronMan]

This is such a perfect cover of this song. Of course it's flawed in sound, but it PERFECTLY captures the floaty and carefree nature of This Must be the Place. It's just friends having fun. "Never for money, always for love"

[@orangeusername1792]

And thats why this is one of my most favorite bands, because they wanted to make music THEY wanted to make, and it is all for fun, they didnt take the path of all the evil record labels trying to get a piece of them, even though they would make a shit ton of money, they still said no and went on their own way, and still made good legit money through the love for music.

[@whiteclay22]

This must be the place, is actually a sad song.

[@urmanao24]

I have heard a version of this on soundcloud

[@coreycox2345]

The bass pops a bit more than the original. I like it. These guys are so young and adorable, like my sons.

[@kevinjones2268]

Strider How dare you. I wish they wouldn't. It's not their music. They should spend their time and money recording their music, then in concert they should fuck with the crowd at their leisure. Did they get into music to play music, or to make money. Bands who do covers live show their personality off stage some with their cover choices. It should be appreciated.
