Talking Heads - Burning Down the House [HD]

[@Tekukuno]

This movie Stop Making Sense, the entire movie, is one of my feel-good movies of all time. I can't help but be full of joy when I watch it.

[@DeltaElites]

Me too! I was there for this live at the Long Beach Arena. My god what a show!

[@agamemnonpadar5706]

Saw it, when it was shown in the cinema, and the audience went wild, dancing and singing/yelling along, like as if the band was on stage.

[@aga080]

its a masterpiece, fantastic movie

[@EnglerCreative]

I'm exhausted by the end of it.

[@JacobStarpuncher]

IDK what it is, but the way they hit the "MYYYY house" line right at 2:11 just makes the whole performance for me. They put everything they've got into that line.

[@mopedandbread8379]

Yes! And the way Byrne isn’t even looking for the next “that’s right!” The whole thing just oozes beautiful energy from amazingly practiced and talented people

[@J3TF1RE]

I think it’s how in sync and comfortable everyone is. There’s so much power in all their voices all at once too. It’s the highlight of an all around amazing performance.

[@Wally991]

Wasn’t “Burn down the house” a regular chant at Parliament concerts? And the Heads capitalized on it!

[@wh2577]

@Wally991 I think that was just a general thing to scream at a party or concert back in the day. Parliaments' main specific chant was "Tear the roof of the sucka," along with other isolated lyrics from other songs being chanted throughout a concert as well.

[@Royale_with_Cheeze]

This is my all-time favorite concert movie. No backstage antics, no interview backstage while the rest of the band is playing, interrupting the performance (in the film), just the band coming onstage, and in this case, David alone with a boombox, then the original members and finally the full band and they just play a great show! Beautifully filmed.

[@kimweemhoff5622]

I remember seeing this in the cinema in Amsterdam when it came out and people were more than once applauding after a song ended. That is quite some achievement for a performance on a screen

I was in my early 20s then, I'm in my 60s now and, to this day, with more than a couple hundred shows ranging from hardcore punk and thrash metal to old school Country Western and some great jazz, under my belt and Stop Making Sense was, far and above, the best musical event I've ever experienced.

Just unbelievably awesome energy I'm so precise. I always dance and jump around when I hear this song... It creates pure energy. And that was long before I saw this performance.

Saw this show in Melbourne (Australia) in the early eighties. It was as good as it gets, great songs, huge energy, just everything was beyond fantastic. Definitely worth watching the Stop Making Sense movie. It was a great week of concerts in Melbourne, Simply Red and Eurythmics two nights and Talking Heads and The Pretenders on the other two nights. So we warmed up with The Pretenders! And they were amazing, Then Talking Heads. Wow.

I saw all of them at the Narara festival outside of Sydney. I remember Byrne coming on stage on his own to play Psycho Killer, and he said the rest of the band had been held up and he'd have to do the show on his own, with a backing tape. The crowd were like what? Anyway, one by one they came on as seen in the film. Unfortunately, I wasn't in peak physical condition, because they came on after 11pm, and I remember very little of the performance. I had to see the movie when it came out to see what I'd missed. Only the best live performance that could ever be imagined.

Incredible, just as I remembered it. This song and performance has incredible energy.
