In honor of my birthday - what Rock Star Legend shares a birthday with you??!! (Me - David Byrne)
Hey, I just love an excuse to post videos from the Talking Heads since the Great David Byrne and I both share the same Birthday!!
And so I don't make DUers jealous (for those who do not share a birthday with a Rock Legend), I also happen to not only share the same birtday but even birth year with Fab Morvan, one half of Milli Vanilli. So get you lip sync kicks in folks!
