Noooooo, I love her. I would go *** for her in a heatbeat.
Talking Heads
Strengths: CHANGED PUNK FOREVER. If you listen to "Nevermind the Bollucks" and think that they didn't overthink the album, I would highly reccomend you allow "Remain in Light" to absolutly blow your mind. Its gorgeous. The lyrics, the crazy/charismatic singing, the tribal music influences, the brilliant guitar....
Weaknesses:...but I'll admit that if you're not in the mood to listen to it, it gets highly annoying. Perhaps the last thing I want to hear when I'm really upset is, "TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS. TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS. TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS. I'MA GOVERNMENT MAN."
