A minor query: `Lifetime Piling up'? I have the soundtrack album to Until the End of the World, and the Talking Heads track is listed there as `Sax and Violins'....
Whoops, you're right. "Lifetime Piling Up" was the single released to coincide with their one- and two-disc Greatest Hits at about the same time. I've fixed this now. -- PaulDrye
Shouldn't there be a mention of the film/album true Stories here? It may have been mostly a Byrne project, but there was a band album out of it
Should probably also mention that "talking head" is slang for vapid television personalities. --

- Not unless we're going to have an encyclopedia article called "talking heads" with the title understood in that sense. I would think television pundit[?] would be more appropriate. If you want further argument, see this column[?]. But it might be good to mention the more "literal" meaning of "talking head" as an explanation of the name of the band. --LMS
