Haven't heard it, but I'm familiar with other albums by Talking Heads. Great band for sure.

I LOVE THAT VIDEO.

Some of the most entertaining dancing ever Laughing Amazing song too.

Fear Of Music is actually a very important album for me. It got me into post-punk a lot more, and it let me understand the appeal of a lot of other bands and albums, some of which reside on my chart. It was my first step on the ladder of 'different music'.

The album isn't on my chart, but it's still pretty damn good. Smile

Cities is my fav track too. It's a good album but somehow less satisfying than the first two. '77' is their best album.
