Talking Heads - Remain in Light Album

The Talking Heads Remain in the Light album was a delight to the band's fans when it was originally released and remains one of their essential discs. The first three songs, including "Once in a Lifetime," their biggest hit, and "The Great Curve," are very funky, energetic and great to dance to. The remainder of the album has some somber, but all the more affecting tunes like the song "Listening Wind" and the haunting, "The Overload," which makes you feel like you are walking around in a daze as the sole survivor of a nuclear event. For anyone who is a fan of the Talking Heads, this disc should reconfirm your good feelings about the band.
