Paramore - Burning Down the House (Behind The Scenes)

[@anthonywhetzelcreativedire5496]

Probably the best Talking Heads cover I've ever heard. And that's coming from someone who saw them live in 1983 during the Stop Making Sense tour.

Woah

[@alanofthebergalan6357]

You should check out the “tribute band” LLB. They just dropped this track today.

[@gruwidge]

Yeah this one might be my fav on the cover album. They really seem like they're having fun with the song and put there own spin on it while still keeping some of the original flair. Feels not just like a cover but TRIBUTE!

[@dariowestern]

I'm working on a girl pop/rock/dance band in Brisbane (Australia) called Laissez-Fayre, and want to cover this song. We did the song "Totally Nude" in a previous incarnation which you can see at: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4KvqYKAbNFraLM

[@FabioBarile]

Never heard Hayley's voice go this raw, everything this band does amazes me.

[@bridgettedena6094]

listen to her solo stuff, you’ll love that too

[@yurii222]

Да, группа все делает ужасно. Раньше была лучшая группа а сейчас позор

[@jamesonwestonphoto]

Right it’s just great to hear this side of her.

[@zombieedrea]

She does it a little in Running Out of Time. You can definitely hear where she got that inspiration lol. It makes complete sense for them to contribute to this album. I just love how they've evolved over the past 20 years. This is why they've stood the test of time and aren't just another emo band from that era, but it certainly proves just how great of a band they are.

[@d_nerys]

Their covers NEVER miss. Her voice is so versatile and they’re all so talented. Love Paramore forever 😭🫶

This cover is almost note for note what the Talking Heads did. Even the bridge is the same. It delivers nothing more than last week's pizza re-warmed. Not bad, mind you, but it adds nothing to the original song.

[@bobbenson6825]

Been a Talking Heads fan since 1977 and all due respect to Hayley and Paramore, this is a fucking great cover. And I'm loving this video; there's no way not to have fun with this song and it's great to see them all grooving.

[@vivnogueira]

oh man, how I love this band... I don't have words, this cover is too good

[@guillermo3564]

I was late to the party and didn't discover Paramore until 2016. The first video that I saw was Last Hope live in Chicago. It is one of my top 10 favorite songs of all time. I was hooked from that moment and watched everything that I found from them. They immediately became one of my favorite bands, and that's a pretty big deal since I've been rocking out for a very long time. I'll be 65 at the end of the month and I'm really happy that Paramore will be a big part of the rest of my life. Every variation of the band has been fantastic and Hayley is absolutely amazing.

[@horror-core]

That's very cool. I have lyrics from that song tattooed on my neck. It hits a lil close. Has always made a eye well up but makes me happy.

[@erasing_lyfe]

I could have written the EXACT same comment @guillermo3564. Keep rockin bro!!!!

that is one of the best live performances of Paramore of all time and thats amazing that it was your first exposure to them!!

[@brandonkenyon2859]

Last hope is my favorite song but I’ve been a big fan since I was a teen. I’m 27 now but this comment was amazing to read. The love for Paramore doesn’t have an age. Welcome to the family friend ❤

@victoriavvc song is wrong and should be banned as it encourages arson and criminal activity to burn buildings down. It is commanding people to commit arson which is criminal. David Byrne is a criminal since he encouraging arson. Such speech should not be protected under the 1st Amendment since one cannot yell fire in a burning building.

[@rickd8765]

OMFG, I was raised & nurtured on the Talking Heads & never thought in my lifetime I would hear a cover of one of their all time classics mastered so eloquently. Paramore kicked ass with this TRIBUTE to one of icons of modern music. I want more.

[@scottcollins7198]

It's just absolutely amazing to see this kind of energy in the studio, especially when you compare it to old studio clips from '06-'09. These are best friends, having a blast, comfortable with themselves and each other, just oozing with expression and the talent to boot. ESPECIALLY being the first release post-label drop, I love how much joy and passion there is in this, and I'm very much looking forward to whatever is next. Paramore is aging like a fine wine, and I'm drinking it RIGHT up.

[@nickcarroll5034]

they were only having a horrible time back then recording brand new eyes

[@timhalloran8337]

One of the best covers I have heard in years. The snarling intensity and growling adds something I didn't realize the song needed. That, and of course the jog-dancing circa "Stop Making Sense" film. GREAT job.

[@danserprc]

my husband grew up listening to Talking Heads because his dad was a fan and this song is one of his favorites; he’s not a Paramore fan but i showed him this cover and he absolutely loved it. Paramore definitely did justice to this great song!

[@worldwidehiphop.]

My 70yo Dad hated it. I can see she is a cutie & I don't know Paramore's music, but this was blasted into my head as an 80's child. Disappointed!

[@MrMustangdave08]

I'm an old school "New Waver" and always loved The Talking Heads and never heard of Paramore until today while listening to Apple Music on my headphones. I came to You Tube to watch the video to see who this band is. Wow, awesome cover. Now I have to start listening to other Paramore music I've missed.

[@FlashbackHeartAttack]

Us too

[@fortyseventwo]

OMG are you in for a treat! Paramore is INcredible!

[@OttoK_yt]

If you're coming from a new wave context, I imagine your favorite stuff will be their most recent two albums, After Laughter and This Is Why

[@triggerhappysrt]

check out their album after laughter! some serious 80s vibes with it. great lyrics and just so much fun to listen to

[@gigihwidodo2079]

Listen to their cover at bbc radio one live lounge.

[@elypelowski5670]

This is such an awesome version of Talking Heads. So cool to see younger bands finding these fun classics from the 80s that I grew up listening to.

[@daysatomic]

Love it. Would pay lots of dollars for a cover album of this style music from duran duran, depeche mode, tears for fears, cars, crowded house, inxs, erasure, maybe billy idol. so good. so glad you stayed pretty close to the original as well.

[@JimDexter]

Somehow…and I don’t really know how…I missed the very existence of you guys until about 3 months ago. I’m a musician and did a radio show for 40 years and somehow you flew under my radar. I just want to tell you how great I think you are! As musicians and as humans I just really dig you guys! I find you refreshing, exciting , super creative and fun! Thanks for entertaining me…and all your fans….and providing a huge backlog of tunes to listen to and explore! I wish you continued success and happiness in all your endeavors! I’m 62 and “26” just kills me. Beautiful…..

[@janismonger5245]

Amazing! So talented!!! The vocals, the vibe, the moves -- a spot on tribute to Talking Heads and still all their own.

I was about to head to bed before I randomly clicked on this. I've never listened to Paramore before. This is ah-mazing!

[@michaelmangano1732]

Love the drawing of a burning house 😂 I’m so connected to the lyrics and the concept of just trying to be “an ordinary guy” who’s just “burning down the house”, probably having bit off more than he could chew. Musically, this just flows off the “This Is Why” album, and it’s hard to know if that album was the inspiration or this song inspired it. Either way, Paramore and Hayley just so organically connected to this song - this is a masterpiece!!

Gonna burst into flames, ah Burning down the house My house's Out of the ordinary That's right Don't wanna hurt nobody Some things sure can sweep me off my feet Ah, burning down the house No visible means of support And you have not seen nothing yet Everything's stuck together Well, I don't know what you expect Staring into the TV set Fightin' fire with fire, ah Ooh Ah, yeah Burning down the house Burning down the house
