    Once in a lifetime is NOT music it literally gave me a headache to listen to this song on the radio I couldn't change it because it was my friends favorite station idk if she likes the song... But I definitely didn't. Talking is not singing. Don't repeat things in songs it's very annoying

    This is the defining album of the Talking Heads. The layers of sound will catapult you into musical realms you've never experienced. It will also leave you transfixed. Listen to the Great Curve very loud and bounce around the room.
  • Plain great

    Very simply one of the most intelligent, inspired, original albums ever recorded.
  • Groundbreaking. Eno produced.

    The ITunes "entrenched" review consistently misinterprets Byrne’s music. To call Byrne’s lyrics “disconnected” is odd. Even a cursory reading of the lyrics to almost any Talking Head’s song presents a coherent narrative or a focused slice of life. Granted, he uses unusual phrases and concepts not typically found in “pop” music- but, after all, this is a guy who came to music from art school. Further, what the reviewer suggests is Byrne being “uncomfortable” in the verses of Once in a Lifetime is actually Byrne's interpretive and expressive choice designed to reflect the disassociation one can have with what seems idyllic. Finally to call the lyric “letting the days go by” a reassuring chorus is plain wrong. In fact, the line is about how we may passively accept our situation- unwilling or unable to break with the traditions and social constraints of everyday expectations. This is summed up by the final line repeated 20 times, “same as it ever was.” Same as it ever was.
