I wasn't too impressed with the previous Talking Heads album on the List, which has probably transformed my head into a dartboard for many the music fan.  Yes, I am the center of their universes.  I wish that I could say I enjoyed this one more, but I can't.

I found the lyrics on this album to be quite strange.  For example, in "Girls Want To Be With The Girls" they say "Girls are getting into abstract analysis/ They want to be make an intuitive leap/They are making plans that have far reaching effects/And girls want to be with girls."  I'm sorry, what?  That sounded incredibly awkward.  Even the title is awkward.  Cut out the "the!"  I also found the accompanying instrumentals to be rather yawn worthy, even though the musicians were obviously skilled.

Overall, just a meh and certainly doesn't stand out for its lyrical quality.

RATING: 2/5
