    There has never been a time in my life in which I have turned down the chance to watch David Byrne do weird little dances.

    I remember when that video came out: I was in college. Used to hang out in the campus center watching MTV on the big screen television. Not a flat screen, of course. Those were decades in the future. But damn, there were some good videos made back then!

    When this song came out, I was struck by how much it applied to my life. I was living in a shotgun shack, in place I’d never been to before, we drove a Winnebago, and I was a beautiful wife, only not his beautiful wife, and I most definitely wondered how I got there!

    There’s just something about the speech at the beginning that gives this thing such a spiritual vibe. It’s like an acid trip in a movie where the main character looks at their wreck of a life and decisions they’ve made, and realize that life is still incredible in spite of it.
