i think this dude was so far ahead of his time, this is like the best song I've ever heard lol a lot, lot deeper than you'd expect by the lyrics alone, if that makes sense. you really have to be in a special place to appreciate it.

Reminds me of my belated brother Lloyd (Rocky) Woodard. I was just a kid when he joined me, mom, my other brother and step dad on the beach back in the early 80's. He had this small portable radio with a cassette and he played this song over and over. This is an anthem to my brother, Rocky - brings me so much happiness when I hear this song because it reminds me of him. He was part of an African dance troupe and he played all of the percussions and kalimba. I understand his appreciation of this song - it has an African under-beat.

I don't know why, but I always associate this song with a nightmare I had when I was in college. I just remember being chased by a large monster through an empty building with lots of winding corners while this song played in the background. (Loud sounds of snarling monster chasing after me. David Byrne, ethereal and ascendant: WHEN THE DAYS GO BY)

I turned so many people, friends family on to this song 40 years ago , still love it, cutting edge at the time it first came out !

When this band came out there had never been anything like it. It blew my 14 year old mind. When this particular record came out, I had become a different person than the kids my age. Everyone laughed like hell at this song and called David Byrne a lunatic, weirdo, etc. But the ones of us who "got it" knew he was brilliant.

I went to a pub on holiday last year. I was not sober AT ALL... and watching someone do this dance was the best laugh I had.
