Talking Heads: Once in a Lifetime (Music Video)

Vocalist Byrne appears dances erratically, imitating the movements of rituals, moving in spasmic full-body contortions. Toni Basil studied archive footage of preachers, evangelists, people in trances, African tribes, Japanese religious sects to see how Byrne could incorporate them into his performance.
