The Talking Heads
nescience:
Well, Eno didn't EXACTLY produce Bowie-- he only collaborated with him and played synths for Bowie during the Berlin period, and Tony Visconti actually produced those albums. He did bring a lot to Bowie's sound during that period and similarities definitely exist between the Berlin trilogy albums and his production work with the Talking Heads (especially between Lodger and Remain in Light).

Thanks, I was just too lazy to look it up.

I've intentionally listened to The Talking Heads once, in the forced listening thread.

Talking Heads - Don't Worry About the Government
Starts off with a little twiddling sort of thing, then a sort of...I dunno, comic sounding vocalist pops in. I dunno, not too keen on him. The song keeps sort of 'nice' and airy. Lots of false build ups. and little 'doo doo doo doo' keyboard bits. I take it the lyrics are ironic? I really do not like the bits where he goes 'loved ones, loved ones' etc. His vocals get pretty damn annoying, pitch perfect he ain't. And then the song ends. How nice. Picture postcard nice. 2/10 nice. *yawn*

I'm prepared to believe this was just a pants song though. Lots of bands have such things.

Because you keep asking questions about music that I like, silly. But just as metalopedia KharBevNor up there doesn't know his ass from Jerry Harrison, I couldn't tell you a damned thing about most kinds of metal, or many other types of music out there.
