Weird Video, but lots of videos were like this. This is at the beginning of the MTV Age, or as I call the 3rd British Invasion. When MTV first started off, the station brought in tons of British music via video. England at the time was the only major game in town producing music videos. Eventually, American bands began making music videos beyond live concert clips, but making videos were expensive and MTV hasn't proven themselves as a reliable moneymaker, especially when record sales were down. So, record companies produced CHEAP and experimental videos to get on the MTV market. What you are witnessing is the American counter-attack to the deluge of Britsh music. From 1980 - 1983 MTV would show some of the weirdest, cheapest music videos ever. I would pair this video with Herbie Handcock's "Rockit" (The Breakdancer's Holy Grail) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXnLdWeGeZxosLs --Professor Thursday

My favorite Talking Heads song is "And She Was." Probably the most Pop-sounding song they did but still has that unique and unforgettable sound.

[@School_of_DejaVu]

A great song! Hope he reacts to it...

[@leesvideopage]

And she was is about his friend in high school who use d to skip classes sit by the chocolate YooHoo factory and drop acid. Once I heard David explain that at a show, it made me see those lyrics in a totally different way! And she was lying in the grass And she could hear the highway breathing And she could see a nearby factory She's making sure she is not dreaming See the lights of a neighbor's house Now she's starting to rise Take a minute to concentrate And she opens up her eyes The world was moving she was right there with it and she was The world was moving she was floating above it and she was And she was And she was drifting through the backyard And she was taking off her dress And she was moving very slowly Rising up above the earth Moving into the universe and she's Drifting this way and that Not touching the ground at all and she's Up above the yard The world was moving, she was right there with it and she was (Hey, hey) The world was moving, she was floating above it and she was (Hey, hey, hey) She was proud about it, no doubt about it She isn't sure about what she's done No time to think about what to tell him No time to think about what she's done and she was (Hey hey, hey hey, hey) And she was looking at herself And things were looking like a movie She had a pleasant elevation She's moving out in all directions oh, oh oh

I have always love The Talking Heads, Great music.

[@lreadlResurrected]

If I am not mistaken, this song was composed by the band by having the members write down pithy sayings of one or two sentences. They then took all of them threw them in a hat and pulled them out in no particular order and concocted this stream-of-consciousness lyric.

[@wreckingKREW1]

Yea,that was the basic concept for the entire "Speaking In Tongues" album. They illustrated this on the tour by having screens set up behind the band during "Making Flippy Floppy" and having 3 words appear on 3 different screens. Some kinda matched up,others not as much. Very few bands pushed as hard to recreate themselves from record to record and always strive for something totally original as much as Talking Heads did. One of my absolute favorite bands ever.

[@cameron_fairchild]

E n O

[@vieella389]

I did not know this. Very cool. The song makes more sense now, although the point is to stop making sense.

[@slkinia]

As many here have suggested, their concert movie "Stop Making Sense" is a must watch, with the volume way up. The free version on KZbin is about 4 min 9 sec short of the full runtime of 1:28:06, even tho' it says "Full Concert." Which means it's been sped up a little bit, which would seem to be the case from the sound of David Byrnes voice in the opening. Tina Weymouth on bass is simply superb. There is no doubt you would love the entire concert. Their performances of every song in that movie are definitely the best they have.

David Byrne is one of those musical geniuses that only come once per generation... He's a true artist to this day, and he's on the spectrum. Also, highly recommend you watch the Stop Making Sense movie, it's widely considered to be one of the best concerts ever recorded.

You should check out some live performances of the Talking Heads. They have a live movie Stop Making Sense. But there are lots of great performances out there.

Thank you so much for posting, I enjoyed your reactions/commentary, I did not know the background you researched. The Talking Heads were probably my favorite band of the 80s and this has held up so well, I just love it. They were so ingenious in striking a balance between interesting art and innovative music and yet keeping enough humor and fun to avoid being pretentious. That kid crawling all over David Byrne!

Please react to Talking Heads “And She Was” official music video.

I am a long time audiophile & grew up on the songs you play. I love it so much when you see a talent & comment on it with the same appreciation that I felt when I heard it the first time. Rock on.

Check out "Genius of Love" by Tom Tom Club. Drummer and bass player of Talking Heads other group. Good stuff. You'd like it 😊

They are legit. You need to watch Stop Making Sense. Their live performances were unique and high energy.
