David Byrne: Look into the Eyeball
"For the most part, it consists of upbeat, funk-laden pop songs, with lyrics that rarely penetrate past one's eyeball, but rhythms that bounce and shake for better or worse."
Pitchfork, 5.8.01

Same As He Ever Was
"Watching David Byrne is like peering into an ant farm."
The New York Times Magazine, 4.29.01

'Therapy Is Like A Lobotomy. Who wants to have all their edges shaved off?'
"I do seem to like to combine the dramatic emotional warmth of strings with the grooves and body business of drums and bass," Byrne says. He pauses. Re-thinks. Changes tack. Giggles. "There's less irony than there used to be. I'm sure that will disappoint some people but, well, there you go."
Guardian UK, 4.27.01
