Free Music Notes for Everything That Happens Will Happen Today
Free Music Review: Older, more mellow David Byrne but still Genius
Hit: 5 Stars
If you are expecting raucus Talking Head style rock, you'll be disappointed. If on the other hand you appreciate the complex arrangements, precision production, and beautiful lyrics fully appropriate for these trying times, you will love it.
Like many of my most favorite albums, I did not love it the first time I heard it. But I listened to it a couple times, and then it just haunted me. I wake up thinking of it.
I recently had the pleasure to see David Byrne in concert for this album tour, and it was the best show I have ever seen. Perhaps the only thing that would have been better would have been to be in the actual audience for Stop Making Sense back in the day, 1983.

I bought "Everything That Happens" after listening to some of the song samples on iTunes and thinking they had potential. This album didn't hit me right away. After my first and second listen, I picked a couple tracks ("Strange Overtones", "Everything That Happens", "One Fine Day") that I liked the most and regularly skipped the rest. Later, I gave the entire CD a couple more listens and finally got into each track.
Let's just say that right now I consider this album to be one of the best, and most consistently strong records of the past couple years. For me, David Byrne's voice took some getting used to but now I absolutely love it.
Highly recommended!

Oh, this is the best musical surprise since the closet McCartney 'Fireman' CD. Byrne is in fine singing form, his lyrics are as twisted as ever, and Brian Eno is full of ideas, some new, some reworked.
If you're looking for them to re-do their past work...they don't. This is how Talking Heads might have been, if they were still in business. If you can still fog a mirror, you'll love this album.
The standout track to me is "I Feel My Stuff". It's a journey through musical ideas, getting funkier by the second, and ending up with great ersatz brass and Byrne at his hysterical best. A couple of times, you might even think they're sampling Robert Plant.
