David Byrne has shared a new single titled “Everybody’s Coming to My House.” The track is pulled from the Talking Heads legend’s forthcoming new release American Utopia and Byrne says that the release may be his most ambitious effort to date. “These songs don’t describe an imaginary or possibly impossible place but rather attempt to depict the world we live in now. Many of us, I suspect, are not satisfied with that world-the world we have made for ourselves. We look around and we ask ourselves-well, does it have to be like this? Is there another way? These songs are about that looking and that asking,” he said at a statement. He adds: “This album is indirectly about those aspirational impulses. Sometimes to describe is to reveal, to see other possibilities. To ask a question is to begin the process of looking for an answer. To be descriptive is also to be prescriptive, in a way. The act of asking is a big step. The songs are sincere-the title is not ironic. The title refers not to a specific utopia, but rather to our longing, frustration, aspirations, fears, and hopes regarding what could be possible, what else is possible. The description, the discontent and the desire-I have a feeling that is what these songs touch on.” Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
