"id like to audition for your band." DB "hows your cardio?"

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.

Never gets old. Legendary performance

Talking Heads is one of those bands that sounds amazing on a record, but somehow even better live. David’s voice is amazing, that kind of vocal consistency is rare.

The keyboard player is Bernie Worrell of Parliament/Funkadelic. Imagine playing in 2 HOF bands!

I’ve seen David Byrne live many times and he is a true showman. Worth every cent.

I hope people realize how in shape the lead singer had to be in to sing and perform the way he did. That is not easy. Amazing job by the entire group also. Incredible fitness.

Saw them at Forest Hills 1982 I was "working" as a "security" guard, right in front of stage I was 21yrs old Freaking AWESOME!!👍🥰🤗

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.

One dislike was guy who's house actually burned down

I was never a huge fan but the energy these folks put out is addictive. How can you not like this?

The Energy this band gives out could light up a large city . Wonderful show with some fine musicians!

One of the best concert films ever made.

I was at this show, opening night of a 3 day event at the Pantages theater. Front row, stage right. 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.

Such a showman. That energy just continues. Insane.

I saw the new 4K remaster of Stop Making Sense in theaters last week, and had to go back and see it again this week. Both times, this performance specifically blew me away. Last week's viewing was in IMAX and it felt like I was there in person watching the concert, it was so powerful. If you get the chance to see this in theaters, by all means go!!

Talking Heads were just flat out brilliant!!!!

This a dance party and concert at the same time! I've never seen a band have so much fun, it's contagious!

Byrning down the house still rocks the fabulous 80’s memories!!!

God, kids today don’t know what they missed in the 80’s! Remember seeing this at the midnight movies in my SoCal neighborhood back in the day along with Dance Craze, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Quadrophonia, etc.👍🏻

David and the guitarist running in place with pure joy on their faces gets me every time. Love it.

They revived my faith in music and humanity, I just wish that I had discovered them earlier. Better late than never though.

No matter the shepherding of your protege's (looking at you mate) - this track & it's concert will never be equalled. Always rent free in my mind.

They always killed any kind of depression I felt. Too much music, too much soul. 100% pure.

The best segment of the best rock concert movie every made. Full Stop.

Might genuinely be the best thing ever recorded live

Always loved burnin down the house and take me to the river. The Spiritual energy David brings to the pieces is like gospel to me. Awesome live performer…

They were the whirlpool of the hits in the 80's. Thanks for God for had lived in this good times. After 53 years.

Talking Heads are one of the greats. I love this song, such energy.

One of the truly magnificent bands ever, who could always cut it live. Albums from Buildings And Food, Fear Of Music to Remain In Light were a stunning trio.

P Funk legend Bernie Worrell on keys!

This is what I call a live performance!

They always played this better live than the studio version.

Two sublime background singers!

One of the best acts/bands that ever came out of the 70s. The music is outstanding, always was and to this day has not aged a bit. That is the mark of genius that was David Byrne and Talking Heads (as they all had writing credits for one thing and another). Brilliant. Thank you for posting.

Two of the most beautiful back up singers in Rock

This version is much better than the studio one, fuchin awesome

Burning down the house -- Is song is funky..!!!! GOOD energy.... A fun tune!!! David is a trip!

Full blown energy- supercharged! GREAT sound!

I listened to this album Stop making sence Twice a day for years Still not tied of it near 40 yrs later Its timeless

I love this band. Fun to see them live.

When I was in college, the local movie theater played "Stop Making Sense." When the film started, the whole audience ran towards the screen and started dancing for the next two hours.

I also saw this in IMAX a couple weeks ago. Everyone knows the Talking Heads but I'd never seen them live. Wish I had. I was blown away by this performance. And as concert docs go, this has got to be one of the best. Too bad the camera couldn't have been on the whole stage the entire time.

Wow!! You know a performance is great when it puts a big smile on your face 😁

Many kids missed real music 🎵🎶 growing up in the 80s The era of great music 🎵🎶❤️🎧🎤🎸

I absolutely love it when you can tell the performers are having s blast doing the show!

Saw them mid 80s from beginning to end nonstop dancing !!! Great memories !! ❤

I love to see these young people having such a good time.

Played this on volume level 11 at a house party in Maui, 1992. Needless to say cops came because the house was a rockin!!!! Best times to be alive

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.

That was so much fun! Miss the music Happy Birthday ROZ -

Never fails to send a tingle up my spine.

This never gets old!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This had to be one hell of a show

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

One of the best small venue band of all time. I have seen them at least a dozen times over the years.

An AMAZING show, and amazing movie.

Truly one of the best performances ever caught on camera!

this is a fever dream of a song

By far my favorite song in the performance. The whole thing was great, but the energy with this one is absolutely unmatchable. It was incredible seeing the 4K remaster in theaters.

Maybe my all time favorite live album. I still listen to it when I'm driving.

Great Music. Super inovative and entertaining! Terrific Band!

Bro....what a performance! The overall energy, rhythm section, synthesizers, Byrne's excelent vocals...Masterclass!

man alex weir really cannot stay still lol he is the most entertaining rhythm player i've ever watched!!

My my, how I miss the 80's and 90's for so many reasons.

Just love this on every level and they are having such a blast on stage..

I was at one of the three nights they recorded and filmed. David Byrns energy was incredible. My body was vibrating when I left, his energy was contagious.!

watched this performance as a wee kid and it has never quite left my mind since then. top guys

Wow, this was awesome. So fun and full of life!

One of my favorite bands ever!!!

TALKING HEADS’ CLASSIC 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense - Number Four on Rolling Stone’s List of the Best Music Documentaries - will return to theaters later this year with a new 4K restoration courtesy of A24. The 1984 concert film's soundtrack will also be released in its complete form for the first time in August . When I first saw this in the theaters EVERY Body was dancing their asses off in the isles. More energy on the screen than far too many live shows I've witnessed...

I've been a fan since hearing Psycho Killer so long ago. Spectacular catalog of music, accompanied by amazing videos, TH bats 1000 for me.

absolutely brilliant.... what a performance.

Much better than album version

That was a time when I became a fan of the band. I bought the vinyl at once. The cover of it describes how they built up that concert. At this many thanks to my former Canadian friend who made me acquainted with David, Tina and all the other ones.

I'm repeatedly stunned by how hard David and the others work during these shows. I know it was years and years ago, and they were young; but damn! What energy!

Awesome Song!!!!! Great Video!!!! I'm 69 still Rock n Roll!!!!!

They opened and closed with this song when I saw them in Berkeley... the drum set and percussion was huge!

Saw this when it first came out based on a review and was knocked out. Maybe the best concert movie.

The lead guitarist is a genius, rockin' this video and making it look easy ...

Amazing quality.

Pure musical talent - remember that?

Well that was way more dope than I expected

i dont think ive seen a band have this much fun on stage

Just came back from seeing the 40th Anniversary re-release in the cinema. Sharing this with an audience is fantastic

That lead guitar player is Alex Weir. Man was/is awesome. A man for his playing time. Set the tone for those who came after.

He sounds so good live. Real talent there.

He had a great voice and infectious energy with this tune and performance

Im a huge classic rock and jazz fan, that being said, I think Stop Making Sense is one of, if not THE, best concert film of all time.

So great. And this even my genre. Brilliant

They were it. And nothing producing today can rival them. They closed out the door of the greatest rock bands ever.

Thanks for posting this!

Happy people at work! 🤩

What a great lineup during this time period....explosive energy.

This song is one of the 80s greats.

Five-Star Rating performance ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ !!!!

Great live performers!

Superb!!!

The 80's were the best time to be alive! I went to both High School and College in the 80's! Loved this time! MISS this time!

Amazing !!
