Any Talking Heads or David Byrne fans here? If so, can you explain why you like their music? It's weird, because their music is exactly the genre I like, but I just can't seem to grasp it or at least it doesn't sound good to me, so I'm wondering, if I'm missing something here.

I really like talking heads and the mindset(autism) of David Byrne.
I think you must feel it feels off, because it is the mix of african rhytms with anglo melodies
making a psychedelic output. Born under punches is a great example that also makes you feel a lil like a schizo.
Speaking in tounges is my fav album.
Or what is it from the music/band that you dont like/understand?

Everyone thinks their music is too deep
Meanwhile IIRC they wrote the lyrics to Once In a Lifetime in 5 minutes or so

IMO they lack melodies and catchiness, I also dislike Byrne's singing.
