uuuuh, no, maybe?
anyways, you should go listen to "speaking in tongues" by the talking heads. its probably my favorite of their releases overall. burning down the house is one of the coolest openers known to man and the whole album after that is  just banger after banger. it really takes you for a ride and you cant really predict what david byrne and the gang are going to throw at you next. most of the instrumentals feel so unorthodox (they have that campy halloween-y vibe that i like) which is to say nothing of the vocals. it borders on the edge of uneasy comedy thats only really undercut by the stern nature of most of the lyrics. no where is this more evident than on the closing track "this must be the place". the instrumental almost feels unsure of itself, all at once its upbeat and somehow deeply sorrowful. and its all brought together by these beautiful lyrics painting a vivid picture of an earnest and pedestrian love thats hopeful in its simplicity. its easily one of my favorite songs and its always a treat when you get to listen to it.

clipnote update 2037 btw.

Have you heard the Paramore cover of burning down the house?? It's my everything rn on repeat forever. Also thanks for making this its absolutely incredible and I am having the time of my life <333 (the top screen of my 3ds broke months ago so I haven't been able to animate until TODAY!! <3)

oh yeah the paramore cover is what got me around to giving paramore a real shot. kind of a carly rae situation if that makes sense? their version feels way more intense than the original which is kind of surprising, but ig thats just what 40 years of loudness acclimation does to a song lol, i love. paramore fucking rocks ngl.

They are seriously one of the most incredible bands ever. This is Why is the one of my top albums of life I cannot recommend it enough
