The Stop Makinng Sense version works better with the lyrics I feel, it gives the song more meaning too me. [2]

And I STILL think that especially the introducing vocals sound a LOT like John Cale.

I love the live version, where the backup singer's voice is coming from somewhere offstage, like she's in the sky :-)

30 years later, this song still holds up, as strong as the day it was written. This used to make me cry, and still can.

A very very interesting view on heaven. "It's hard to imagine that Nothing at all can be so exciting, can be so much fun" - indeed, hard to imagine...though this is quite untypical for Talking Heads, it's my fav off Fear of Music.

"It's just me, or this song seems to David Bowie's "Heroes"? " [2] i thought exactly the same thing
