David Byrne “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”

David Byrne wants you to know that wild hearts can’t be broken and that age doesn’t always lead into stodginess. The proof is in this clip from his Live At The Union Chapel DVD, in which he covers Whitney Houston and artfully brings the ‘80s back into the house of God.

    I LOVE David Bryne, in fact I have worked with him
    at Kamp Studios in NYC.... but I don’t think this song
    suits him. It is NOT my favorite David Byrne performance. Sorry.

    I agree with you. Its not my favorite performance either, however, to me, its a little unexpected and brought a smile to my face and that’s the point of sharing music to me.  Just trying to make people smile for a second.

    Yes I totally agree with you!!
    I am not being a hater.... unfortunately being a music
    producer / engineer it is in my nature to be critical
    and honest! LOL!
    I love David Byrne.. he is the nicest person and a
    true musical genius!!

    Wasn’t trying to come off as offended.  Just giving you in peek into why I posted it.  A FYI kind of thing.  Please continue being honest, its the lifeblood of a good music discussion. Cheers!
