Ah, see I thought the
Remain in Light album song
'The Great Curve' was about the Gnostic godess Sophia. I always skip Listening Wind, I suppose you could say it gives me the 'claustrophobic feeling' you get from
The Great Curve. But the lyrics of '
Listening Wind' do present the very spirit of the neo-Marxist dialectical materialism we see weaponised today so widely with 'minority groups' violently unleashing their resentment on who they are conditioned to see as 'part of or adjacent to Oppressor class' so that the murder of innocent civilians is justified if they are considered an 'oppressor class'
Wow I did not know that about
'And She Was', can you post more details about that one? I want to make a Talking Heads thread because this band has some interesting stuff to uncover and Byrne has a... weird Nostradamus streak or clearly some kind of insider knowledge. He even made a song called
'In the Future'.
Yeah I haven't really delved into '
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts' yet but I heard in their song
'Jezebel Spirit', they literally sampled an exorcism.
Yes, that is correct, he is autistic and Tina Weymouth said she heard a rumour at a party that he sacrificed a child in Brazil with voodoo and said it was connected to his autism. As an autistic person myself uhhhhh Idk about that comment although I do catch myself wondering sometimes
"How much is drugs... How much is autism... How much is MK Ultra?" I heard he didn't use drugs as much as some of the others but not sure. (Apparently though Chris wrote in his
'Remain in Love' memoir about himself having a drug problem to the extent Tina was going to dump him)
I do definitely relate to elements of his autism, I can relate to some of his lyrics and sometimes the way that he thinks and perhaps I have a twinge of a soft spot/ admiration (to an extent) for him because of that admittedly, but I also keep in mind that entertainment is full of sacrifice and these people are doing business and aren't our friends... .So nothing should be too surprising.
I mean even if you look at the lyrics of their song
'Swamp' it seems to be about a rich elite committing a sacrifice... Did he become what he was against or was he that very thing all along... Is he from a certain bloodline, or was he predicting himself in the future? I have so many questions. I couldn't even find the surname Byrne when I searched through the Freemason site... I know Scottish Rite is the highest ranking/ most powerful Freemasonry branch (Even though it's technically from France originally) and he is Scottish.
It's all so hard to say... But anyway, here is a screenshot from the article I found containing the rumour about voodoo in Brazil.

Once again, it's hard to say with this accusation because apparently that was also around the time Tina Weymouth called up friends at a strange hour and told them David has a 'Micropenis' ??? Lots of bad blood between Talking Heads except for Jerry who is super chill, so I'm not sure...
He is definitely a weird guy and I says so as a fellow autist... The more I research him, the weirder he gets and I can't say that about a whole lot of people because usually people get predictable fast.
You seem to know a fair bit about Talking Heads/David Byrne!
I've only been into them since recently but find them fascinating. Shall we create a thread for them? I think I still am unauthorized to create a thread because I don't have enough points (I think I read you need a minimum of 14 or something arbitrary like that) and it looks like I won't be getting my old account back anytime soon... I have a bunch of things I want to share and discuss, I don't want to derail this thread too much from its intended purpose and I feel like your extensive knowledge would be exceedingly helpful!
