Paramore - Burning Down the House (Official Visualizer)

[@taylorkh818]

Can we talk about what she's doing with her voice here though??? It's so stylized and beautiful for this song... constantly so impressed with her vocal control and ability to pull this kind of stuff off

“'Burning Down the House' wasn't a song about arson,” Byrne said. “When I wrote the lyrics in 1982, the title phrase was a metaphor for destroying something safe that entrapped you. I envisioned the song as an expression of liberation, to break free from whatever was holding you back. Go baby Go!

[@PadConnelly]

The line came (indirectly) from Parliament Funkadelic. Chris Frantz, the Talking Heads' drummer, went to one of their concerts at MSG and "burn down the house" was one of the audience chants throughout the show. When the Heads were experimenting with some ideas in a studio jam session and playing around, Chris kept yelling the phrase. That ended up sticking, and was reworked in the way you described. Then, as if to come full circle, several of the artists who played with P.Funk toured with the Talking Heads "Stop Making Sense" tour and the filmed concert. Thank you for sharing! It's one of my favorite songs because of the backstory and being, as the kids say, "a bop."

[@HannahMcKinney13]

Perfect timing for Paramore maybe since they just finished their contract up with their label...maybe a subtle nod to them in a way. 🤷🏼‍♀

[@sooperalex15]

Any opportunity to introduce Talking Heads to a new audience is a win in my book. I feel like the sheer influence David Byrne, along with Jerry Harrison, Tina Weymouth, and Chris Frantz, has had on the music landscape is often underestimated. They didn't just shape modern music; they've been at the heart of pop's evolution for nearly half a century, leaving an indelible mark that resonates across genres and generations. It's not just about the music; it's about the innovation and the way they pushed boundaries, truly pioneering spirits of their time
