Top 100: #57

Number 57: David Byrne & Brian Eno - Strange Overtones
Album: Everything That Happens Will Happen Today, 2008.
Added 8/20/08, 43 plays.



It's about an aging rocker trying to make a hit. It's catchy as all hell. Brian Eno just had all these beats he'd been doing nothing with for twenty years, and David Byrne writes some lyrics, and bam, instant hit. Good driving song.
