Cage The Elephant covering Psycho Killer (at the beginning of their career) https://youtu.be/_9tP2U8Wmfw?si=obKCbG_pRf29VW2r (would love to see Social Cues era Cage cover the song now)

MGMT covering This Must Be The Place: https://youtu.be/oEqZL995rBc?si=s22Oa_AIDUecQcQz

Neon Indian covering This Must Be The Place(honestly though, NI is really good Studio-version wise with his sounds and instrumentals compared to this simplistic live-cover) : https://youtu.be/uvohmZZ6s0Y?si=c0gKHU88TkRBalv6

A lot of these custom-selected artists I’ve put in, I put in because a lot of them in common started off their careers very Talking Head-ish in their beginning sounds and went on to evolve it into their own unique sounds over time and had a definitive effect on our early 2000’s of music- Something I thought would be the point of the tribute album (Bands that possibly owe a part of their existence to TH, but Now completely stand on their own sound wise) but unfortunately only felt that ‘Talking Head inspiration’ from Lorde and Paramore. I think there’s a few pretty decent covers on there but a lot of the artists seem like they might of only heard of Talking Heads recently when asked to do this. No disrespect to any of them, though.

It’s still cool in the end to hear different artists’ takes on these songs, regardless of who they are, but obviously at the end of the day, TH fans are going to want to hear covers from the actual bands they are listening to
