I'd be honored if some David Byrne & Talking Heads fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of THIS MUST BE THE PLACE (re-interpreted as a ballad) on my YT channel in tribute to one of the most unique & iconic bands of the late 70s/early 80s era. Raw acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.

LYRICS: Watch out you might get what you're after Boom babies strange but not a stranger I'm an ordinary guy Burning down the house Hold tight wait till the party's over Hold tight We're in for nasty weather There has got to be a way Burning down the house Here's your ticket pack your bag Time for jumpin' overboard The transportation is here Close enough but not too far Maybe you know where you are Fightin' fire with fire All wet! Hey you might need a raincoat Shakedown! Dreams walkin' in broad daylite Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees Burning down the house It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself Gonna come in first place People on their way to work and baby what did you except Gonna burst into flame My house! Is out of the ordinary That's right! Don't wanna hurt nobody Some things sure can sweep me off my feet Burning down the house No visible means of support and you have not seen nothin' yet Everything's stuck together And I don't know what you expect starring into the TV set Fighting fire with fire

Memories of the very early 80s dancing round the living room together blasting Talking Heads every Saturday morning whilst my mum was at work. I couldn’t have been much older than 4 years old but it’s still imprinted in my brain. For me there wasn’t a more fitting song.

I guess I was just weird from the beginning because I loved all of their videos as a kid. His face on the road did sort of mesmerize me & simultaneously freak me out though. It’s honestly more odd you thought your house would blow up due to playing a song, sounds like some of the thoughts I’ve had due to OCD.

Funny story. When this song came out on MTV my dad was at a party and this song came on. So he ran up close to the tv and he starts dancing and singing the lyrics word for word. He turns around mid song and everyone at the party has stopped and is staring at him. My dad says, “What’s the matter?” Someone asks, “You can understand what he’s saying?”

True story. I am at a gigantic New Jersey nightclub as big as a football field, there's a thousand young people stoned to the gills, Panama Red just made a "your ripped" entrance, it's Friday night, the bars are huge everyone is happy, and lit they could all get lucky. I and a cute girl wandered away to an empty stage. STUNNED ! ! ! David Byrne comes out by himself, with only an acoustic guitar all alone , he starts playing great, we dance our brains out. No one came over. NO ONE ! It was as fantastic as it was bewildering. He finished his set and said "Thank you. " to us . And left. Not headlined ??? No marquee out front. We didn't know there was going to be entertainment ? It was an unbelievable experience of fun, and thanks, and greatness. Best wishes. "Never give up", sometimes you "too" will get extraordinarily lucky.
