That guitarist is beyond epic with his technicality. It's surgical. Love it. Great vibes.

For sure, playing the guitar solo over and over, really nice arrangement and execution.
So many people (looking at you, Lumineers) cover this song as a sad song about longing or going back home to your parents. That's not it, and Hayes gets it. "Home" is the person you're in love with.

I've heard a lot of covers of this song, and haven't noticed the distinction you are raising. It's a love song, but the melody and lyrics have a tinge of sadness, as every great love song does?

Never had the thought that it was about anything besides the (perhaps slightly melancholy) feelings of love from one towards another, or between a couple.
what a great cover! happy accident finding this gold
Great example of the best way to cover a song. Change it enough to suit the band's style without changing TOO much.

Dunno. I've listened to 100's of covers of this song. Covering just about every genre of music known to man. There is a reason it gets covered so much and in so many different ways, over and above it being a great tune. There is something ineffable about this song that makes it one of the most malleable tunes ever written. It can be twisted, turned, and morphed in so many ways while still being recognizable as the song it is and sounding at least decent, if not fab. Its the thing about this tune that fascinates me most.

I'd be honored if some Talking Heads fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of THIS MUST BE THE PLACE (re-interpreted as a ballad) on my YT channel in tribute to one of the most unique & iconic bands of the late 70s/early 80s era. Raw acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.
that guitar player absolutely KILLS it. what a sound. I wish i could jam like that

It honestly is the best cover I have ever heard of this track! I have listened 1.000 times and it still transmits me so much positive energy! Hope to see once live after pandemia.

Don't get me wrong, this one is GREAT, but check out Lotus' version. They covered it live in 2014 at the Vibes festival. Their version is my favorite version of a cover of my all time favorite song.

@@mostlyharmless88 the singer in the Lotus version is a "guest" singer. Definitely trying to do his best David Bryne impressing from Stop Making Sensr out there for sure. Lotus most certainly is NOT a Talking Heads cover band by any means. They did this one for a festival and bust it out on rare occasions. What I love about their version is the wicked guitar solo and overall groove to it.

Well shit, I’m a longtime Talking Heads fan (40+ years) and it’s rare to see & hear other artists cover a Heads song and pull it off. But this is simply the most brilliant interpretation of a truly brilliant Heads tune. This is magical. Take a much deserved bow lads. Bravo 👏👏👏👏
The people that come to song know we are all in the right place🤙

My fav part of this cover is how they change the lyrics from “and you love me until my heart stops, love you til your dead” to “and I love you til my heart stops, love you til I’m dead” it’s a change that makes the world difference in terms of me liking this version over the original. More romantic.
Fantastic...whoever did this recording. Fucking technically fantastic...the song is poetry of course but this is free form extraordinaire.

I have been a huge Talking Heads fan since their first album came out. I have listened to this song so many times over the years and it has meant a lot to me. Your version is by far my favorite ever, even anything Talking Heads ever came up with. Kudos to you and your bandmates on what seems to be just a normal routine session for you guys. I will definitely be a fan of Sean Hayes from now on.

The guitarist (Eric Kuhn) hits the ground running and never looks back. And Sean Hayes' voice is perfect here.
This is really amazing. A wonderful cover of one of the coolest songs ever made .
This cover blows me away. Great job!
Home is where I want to be. But I guess I'm already there
Maaaaan!!!! I'm still at work and got a world to do left but THIS, THIS just made my day and give me the lift i need!!! What a great great great fucking cover, hands down!!!!
It is an individual interpretation. For some it can be a literal place called home. It can also be home in a relationship. It is lovely that this song can be absorbed in so many different ways. Some take a "weakened heart" as a physical illness. Some see that as a weak in strength of the mind. To me, it is a love story between 2 people.
That was some GREAT shit.
best cover for "naive melody". EVER!

I just got the 40th anniversary of Stop Making Sense 4K Blu-ray collection but I cannot get myself to watch it for the first time. With this Sean Hayes' cover, I've got plenty of time ♥️ such a powerful cover, uplifting sensation.
Really wonderful version... thanks
WOW!!! That sounds @$÷*#@& amazing! I have never heard of Sean Hayes before. What a treat for my ears! ❤❤❤
i just stumbled over this again and realized just how brilliant the pal muted telecaster chicken pickin is here- beautiful.
Great band.
Listening now, for the first time. The lowdown, warm vibe of the beginning of the song grabbed me big time...made me feel good, made me smile..Naive Melody is one of the most romantic pop songs ever written, methinks. It is also one of my favourite songs to sing (I have been singing 30 years and miss it live) This fellow can sing. He's kept it in the same key, faithful to the song, and has adapted vocal skill and style, to accomodate an uncomfortable key., transposing...fucking brilliant.. Arrangement?? Don't get me started :) Thanks to the OP, Fast Atmosphere
I think I love 😍 this...
Well, I keep coming back to this song....I just love it. Sean has an actors face And cheers to the band

Love the guitar player.
The fragrance of her alluring charms brought home to him the lost world we dream coming true for once we find our soulmate and never wander to drown in the cloudy halls of misconceptions judging and comparing everything that touches consciousness along the lines of the great judge inside the little brain being reflected against itself in self-defenses that slowly wither down any chance of self-redemption by the way of thou and I there came to be not what was expected and time passed then who are we to expect with great anticipation to feel worthy of anything better how cheap and self-absorbed without redeeming qualities now only the thought remnants of times in a life when each day started and ended with your thought.
that guy is tickling that telly so fine!!!
what a discovery. haven't felt like this since the very first time i heard counting crows long ago.
