Talking Heads - Love for Sale (Official Video) [HD]

[@Raiko_Star]

Talking heads is slowly becoming my favorite band

[@SeanSMST]

After watching a bit of stop making sense and going down a bit of a rabbit hole, I agree

[@Topo42mh]

slowly is the wrong word usage! speed that shiz up

[@heckler511]

Try to find True Stories the movie and see John Goodman's debut to this song

[@BigDaddy-xx1gk]

True Stories was dyn-o-mite. Nobody got it when it came out. Nobody. Byrne is a flippin genius. He may not be the greatest artist to work with on a project (like Peter Gabriel), but they are both musical and lyrical geniuses. I think I was one of the only people in my high school who dug Talking Heads. My friends who I grew up with (and who are now in our late 50's) still don't get why I'm such a fan.

[@wendydavis622]

They do that, it just grows on you...the brilliance is amazing!

[@guimat]

David Byrne is an underrated genius of the music, someone who was ahead of his time.

I had just got into them and saw them at Merriweather for the little creatures tour

[@maggieblyth2077]

They are a brilliant band and were so ahead of the times. They remain one of my favourite bands and after all these years of listening to them i seam to appreciate them more and more as time moves on. Did you also listen to the Tom Tom Club, again they were ahead of their time.

@Pinky Larou Y- you can hear from David Byrne himself, lol.

[@sapphiresky83]

This might be my new most favorite song and video ever... I was stuck on "Road To Nowhere" for a while, not even having listened to this album or seen the film... I'll be 40 in a couple of months... my parents used to play some TH stuff growing up, but never deeper cuts, always the same hand full of "Top 40" hits.... I now feel like I've been robbed of this audio and visual experience for a large chunk of my life now.... this album lives on repeat for now....

[@MassiveFish-hp4pm]

Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Talking Heads

[@Starr_Apathy]

I swear I know exactly what You mean! I have been "rediscovering" them in a much deeper way lately...like obsessed. I remember listening to them as a kid and then being the first band that I really connected with. Now I'm listening to their deep cuts on repeat... And being crazy over "Air" and "Artists Only" especially the live versions... And don't even get me started on Houses in Motion... Hahha

[@dennistomlinson1682]

A classic song but I've never seen this video before, dismantling the consumer society.

[@darrensiegel6651]

by the 1980s advertising and branding had gotten really good. How they try to emotionally manipulate you had gotten good too. The Talking Heads recognized this quite well and mocked it in a rather innocent way here... and with a damn good song with a great beat. The rhythm section of Franz/Weymouth here is so damn tight!

[@janeamandaford4199]

👌👏👍

[@Mr.White10-65]

Watch the David Byrne movie "True Stories". This is from that movie.

Genious Band of the 80's.Simply Amazing.Incroyable vraiment.

[@travkatz]

This is song is prophetic and full of a doomy, gloomy outlook on our blatant consumerism. It reminds me of Devo's "Beautiful World". Seems so benign and sunny. It's not. This song is a warning. The video is PERFECT at broadcasting its true meaning to anyone wanting to understand what's really going on. On the musical side though, this song just infects my ears and I GET ADDICTED. I could play this song dozens of times per day and have over the years many, many times. That riff IS OUTMATCHED NOWHERE.

Saw this video once when it came out. Completely forgot about it until a few weeks back when I saw True Stories and there it was. Great song,loved the movie,thanks!

[@Phorquieu]

Masterful video, wonderfully done, loaded with obvious images of crass commercialism - and a killer song that's instantly likeable - and yet it is still just a silly love song - as all the best songs mostly are! For the opposite sentiment, go see Van Halen's "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" - another song of pure genius - just as crass as this one, and yet darker in tone. Love them both!

[@TeresaDLeecomedy]

Talking Heads don't just consume African rhythms, they are inspired by them and take them in as part of themselves. Love this video so much. It makes me want to make music too.

The remastering does an excellent (and much needed!) job of removing any nostalgia there might be for that era's commercial culture. The Talking Heads always created music that was about 10 years ahead of its time, and the advertisements, "stripped" of their analog fuzziness seem like the sort of commercials we could see at any time in the post-modern world.

Interesting story about the time I met David Byrne. It was 1996 and I was living in NYC. I worked at a small health food store in Greenwich Village called "Healthy Pleasures". One day I am tending to the deli/ bakery section and a rather ordinary looking, unassuming man walks up to the counter and in a soft friendly voice asks if we carry Kalamata Olive Bread. I replied that we did and it was when I got the bread for him that I realized it was David Byrne! The guy was just so polite and ordinary looking I hadn't even recognized him at first. He paid in cash and thanked me and left. I wanted to say something like " I love your band" or something lame like that, but I held my tongue as I sis not want to draw attention to him or make him feel uncomfortable. I worked at that place for about two years and numerous celebrities came in there such as Charleton Heston, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Al Pacino. I heard even Robert DeNiro was in there, but I wasn't working at the time. Great memories!
