I'm with you, man. one of my favorite Talking Heads songs is cliche too, but coupled with the video, it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen/heard in my life (in the early 80s) - youtube doesn't have it but there's a link

Once In A Lifetime is one of those songs like When Doves Cry or B.O.B. that because it's so beloved and accepted as a pop classic, people tend to take for granted how stunningly original and unique it is. Over three decades later, it's still quite an achievement.

I pretty much grew up with these guys playing somewhere or another in the background, it's not until I sit and think about it though that I realize how much of their music I loved. it's somewhat fashionable, with any era of teens, to disregard some of the more mainstream type hits of legendary bands, but there were definite reasons for them being hits... this song was like that I think.
