Talking Heads/New Wave music

Talking Heads and their lead singer David Byrne rabbit hole (Restored and Revised thanks to @Guto65 )

David Byrne is the lead singer of the 1970s-80s new wave band Talking Heads. You may have heard the song Once In A Lifetime and know him for his strange dance moves, lyrics or massive suit. What you may not know is just how deeply embedded he is in the beast system. Let’s have a look…

  • He gave this eery prediction of the future back in 1979

  • He still performs today as a solo singer and in 2020 completed a musical called ‘American Utopia’. During covid, vaccines were mandated for entry. In his most recent performances he displayed banners saying “Make America Gay Again”
  • He is originally from Scotland and I know that the highest Freemason system is ‘Scottish Rite’ but that could be a coincidence because lots of people come from Scotland and are not Freemason. I read that his dad was Catholic and his that his mother was a protestant and I read also that she was a Quaker or something. This lead to arguments and I’m guessing that put him off Christianity and he was more tempted to sell his soul to the devil etc. etc.
  • He started this magazine called ‘Reasons to be Cheerful’ which is anything but because it pushes some fluffy nice sounding stuff like ‘Classes teaching happiness now’ in with nefarious SDG/ESG stuff and follows the UN, WEF and WHO… The unholy trinity of neofeudalism on a global scale!

  • UN is also listed but doesn’t appear in the photo, you can search for it for yourself though

  • He and a bunch of other artists including Devo contributed to an abortion fundraiser album compilation after Roe V Wade was overturned. I have heard rumours that people in Hollywood gain energy or youthfulness from sacrifice of the unborn (Adrenochrome?). Either way, it’s demonic.

  • He and his producer Brian Eno did an album together and sampled a real-life exorcism in a song titled ‘The Jezebel Spirit’… Very strange! :confused:

  • He posted this sickening photo of Jesus in a dress. Galatians 6:7 clearly states that God will not be mocked, so he is operating in an antichrist spirit. (UPDATE: He clarified in an interview with singer Lorde that he does not use social media himself but someone in a small office handles his social media so I’m not sure how much influence he has but this is still unsettling to say the least)

  • He was one of the first people to get his music on the PC. His song was titled “Like Humans Do.” You would recognize it if you had a computer running XP because it was one of the 3 sample songs preloaded on there. Ironically, in the album cover, he looks like a cyborg. Does he have close ties to Bill Gates? Did he do puppy play with Bill to get his song on the PC or something? lol idk I could imagine it though for some reason.

  • I read that he broke up the band without telling the others in 1991, treated them unfairly, took their credits, even pooped on the hotel bed and wrote with the poo “Clean up maid” or something like that. Then after they performed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for the last time ever in 2002, he divorced his wive over text. This was from the drummer Chris Frantz’s recent memoir called ‘Remain in Love’

  • On Talking Heads probably most famous album with the album cover designed by Tibor Kalman, there are upside down letter ‘A’ which apparently means 'The logical symbol ∀ - “for all”. According to Wikipedia "According to the principle of acrophony, the letter A originated from the Proto-Sinatic alphabet as a symbol representing the head of an ox or cow (aleph), its orientation and original meaning having been lost over time. The turned A symbol restores the letter to a more easily recognizable logographic representation of an ox’s head.[5] Sounds like a baphomet

  • In their music video ‘Road to Nowhere’, I spotted him with what I think is a saturn cube spinning on his head


and I don’t even know what this is but it looks like it’s filled with symbolism…

  • Here are some images of him covering an eye and signalling his allegience

Curiously, he seemed to have switched sides when he was older

  • one of their songs ‘Papa Legua’ from their film ‘True Stories’ that Byrne directed is tribute to a Haitian pagan god and Debbie Harry of Blondie did a song about that god too… (Credit to old VC member @BeembowBeembowBeembowBeembow)

  • Here are some strange inscriptions on Talking Heads’ ‘Little Creatures’ album…

  • An alleged rumour:

Tina the Bassist overheard someone saying that David B used voodoo to kill someone. There was a lot of bad blood between the group members at that time, so maybe we should take it with a grain of salt… Plus the thing Tina said about autism was not right. I have autism and I don’t get into occult crap thank you very much…

David Byrne released this song promoting a father transgendering into a ‘woman’ back in 1991!!

here are the lyrics:

[Verse 1]
He is a boy, you are a girl
And you will always stay that way
But there are people in this world
Who’d like to change what nature made

[Pre-Chorus]
And if you take that decision
Then they will make that incision down below

[Chorus]
The birds and the bees are singin’ for me
And this is the song I heard them singin’
Goin’ tweedle dee dee, tweedle dee dee
But I never heard a word they’re tellin’ me

[Verse 2]
Oh little girl, please understand
And listen to the words I say
I was your dad, now I’m your mom
I hope you’ll comprehend someday

[Pre-Chorus]
I didn’t mean to confuse you
And now I know that it’s hard to understand

[Chorus]
The birds and the bees are singin’ for me
But I never heard a word they’re sayin’
Goin’ tweedle dee dee, tweedle dee dee
Freedom of choice is what they’re bringin’

[Post-Chorus]
And when Columbus
Sailed upon that mighty sea
Well, we are just like him
Yes, we are pioneers
Into the great unknown
The wild uncharted lands
There ain’t no turning back
Ain’t gonna be no chains on me

[Ad Lib]
Hit it!

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Who would ever believe
Caterpillars like me
Turning into a butterfly
Well, I was suddenly free

[Chorus]
The birds and the bees are singin’ for me
And this is the song I heard them singin’
Tweedle dee dee, tweedle dee dee
Freedom of choice is what they’re bringin’

[Post-Chorus]
You know I’m man enough
Ain’t gonna run and hide
My love is mighty tough
My love is mighty wild
I got a pair o’ wings
And I’m gonna fly away
Too late to turn back now
Tomorrow came today for me

[Outro]
Hey hey
Ooooh
Hey hey
Oooooh
Oooooh

Here’s David Byrne in drag for a different music video

Church of Subgenius cult

DB is part of a weird parody cult thingamajig with the Devo lead singer (Remember the contribution to the abortion comp with him too?) called Church of the SubGenius - Wikipedia

They believe they are descended from Yetis from ancient Atlantis and need to cull the human population with things like abortion and drug abuse among a few other things… I know it is meant to be ironic but… it checks out tbh.

Robert Anton Wilson (Edit: He may not have been a co-foonder but) was instrumental in supporting Church of Subgenius to the point the founder called him ‘Pope Bob’. He who wrote the Illuminatus Trilogy Books which the famous Illuminati Card Game was based off of. Basically Robert and his comrades were engaged in a psyop to plant decoy ‘conspiracy theories’ or exaggerate to distract from true conspiracies going on.

“The Illuminati: New World Order game had a stand-alone expansion devoted to the Church of the SubGenius. It was a relatively late addition to the game, well after the core game had “peaked”, and it’s been out of print for quite a while now, which is why it’s somewhat harder to find references to.

Its “significance” is more-or-less laid out on the card – It greatly beefs up the power of a SubGenius Group card that it’s linked to.” From Reddit

Mark Mothersbough from Devo “It’s the human condition, things falling apart, Christ without a penis”

There’s a lot of symbolism in this music video from Byrne/Talking Heads 1986 film True Stories. The song title Puzzlin’ Evidence is a reference to the Church of the Subgenius broadcast Puzzling Evidence. Basically it’s a psyop to make people like us look like lunatics and the ‘Preacher’ figure in this video appears to be something in between Alex Jones and Kenneth Copeland. Nonetheless, it involves predictive programming. By presenting it as a crazy man’s ramblings they mock truth seekers.

Credit to this member u/Dives2Deep of the r/conspiracy reddit who picked up on all the symbolism and references

Interesting how he mentioned Trilateral Commission on Foreign Relations (founded in July 1973 by banker David Rockefeller)

There’s so much to write, I just don’t have the time now for writing them down I want to send again the answers I wrote in the old topic, I somehow remember what I had written in that topic. I will write it again and this will probably (God’s willing) happen on Wednesday night, when I’ll do my night shift at the hotel where I work. I have plenty of time during the night :crescent_moon: shift :smiley:

@John16.33Jesuswins good post. Very informative for many and those unaware. Nothing is a coincidence NOTHING!!!

We have some extremely deviant evildoers who hide themselves well. But when you’ve been down many rabbit holes after decades of research ALL of this is and has occurred. I think of Paul Harvey’s take about Satan and humanity.

Being ever girded in our Lords Holy Bible and the truths therein. Godspeed to each of you. Thank you :purple_heart:

In The Future by David Byrne (1985) I almost forgot this one, but it’s one of the most interesting

Lyrics: (I bolded the ones I think have come true especially in the West)

In the future everyone will have the same haircut and the same clothes
In the future everyone will be very fat from the starchy diet (true in America)
In the future everyone will be very thin from not having enough to eat (true in most of the world)
In the future it will be next to impossible to tell girls from boys, even in bed (Transgenderism/Gender Identity in the west )
In the future men will be “super masculine” and women will be “ultra-feminine” (trad wife/ MGTOW, Islam , Manosphere etc.)
In the future half of us will be “mentally ill” (Spot on, especially in the West)
In the future there will be no religion or spiritualism of any sort (Declining in Western countries)
In the future the “psychic arts” will be put to practical use ( Elites doing rituals, Kabbalah etc. Witchcraft is growing in popularity )
In the future we will not think that “nature” is beautiful
In the future the weather will always be the same
In the future no one will fight with anyone else
In the future there will be an atomic war
In the future water will be expensive
In the future all material items will be free (could be interpreted as subscription economy/owning nothing be happy agenda??)
In the future everyone’s house will be like a little fortress
In the future everyone’s house will be a total entertainment center

In the future everyone but the wealthy will be very happy
In the future everyone but the wealthy will be very filthy
In the future everyone but the wealthy will be very healthy

(these verses about the wealthy are very interesting, not sure what to think of them)

In the future TV will be so good that the printed word will function as an art form only (That did come true for some time, then replaced by phone screens)
In the future people with boring jobs will take pills to relieve the boredom (very true)
In the future that no one will live in cities
In the future there will be mini-wars going on everywhere
In the future everyone will think about love all the time

In the future political and other decisions will be based completely on opinion polls (true in my country, most people just want handouts and don’t give a flip about anything else more pressing)
In the future there will be machines which will produce a religious experience in the user (Yes, there’s an AI for that)
In the future there will be groups of wild people, living in the wilderness
In the future there will only be paper money which will be personalized
In the future there will be a classless society

In the future everyone will only get to go home once a year
In the future everyone will stay home all the time (Covid and then not being able to afford going out)
In the future we will not have time for leisure activities (Very true)
In the future we will only “work” one day a week (true for some people who have hacked the system and are good at passive income /freelancing. Also work is in inverted commas, so maybe it’s influencers who feel like it’s only one day of work because they’re passionate)
In the future our bodies will be shriveled up but our brains will be bigger
In the future there will be starving people everywhere
In the future people will live in space
In the future no one will be able to afford TV
In the future the helpless will be killed
In the future everyone will have their own style of way-out clothes
In the future we will make love to anything, anytime, anywhere
In the future there will be so much going on that no one will be able to keep track of it (VERY True!! Thanks social media!)

Talking Heads were part of the 70s NYC scene,which was mainly happening around the CBGB club/live venue. There’s a lot of bands connected to it,but I’d like to stay mainly with Blondie.

Debbie Harry, before she became, well, Blondie, was not blonde,but instead,she had brownish type of hair color. Also,before she joined Blondie, she was at some point a bunny girl for Hugh Hefner’s Playboy. Well,this screams involvement with the elite and -more than certain- MK Ultra going on. That she decided to dye her hair blonde,hints at Marylin Monroe type of programming. And she would dress quite too often with animal print clothing.

She also had an interesting story to tell. She was somewhere at NYC’s center, I think near this district known as Bowery and she couldn’t get a taxi ride. Then she noticed a very persistent man,driving just next to her, insisting that he could give her a ride to where she wanted, just some blocks away. She was hesitant, but after his insistence, she jumped into the car. She realised that the car was totally empty inside, no hand bars for the windows or for the doors,no radio set,nothing. Then,according to her accounts,she also realized that the driver was someone really dangerous, so,she said she just opened her door from the outside and she just jumped outside of it,on the asphalt of a big avenue.

She had almost forgotten about the incident when,later on,she saw images of the infamous and prolific serial killer Ted Bundy and she was convinced that it was the same man who tried to get her for a ride.

People have since dismissed these claims, saying that Ted Bundy wad not active in NYC in 1973,when this happened, instead,his first KNOWN murder was in 1974 and this was not in the NYC area. But,according to Bundy himself, he had family in Pennsylvania and,although he was living in Florida at the time,he was visiting Penn very often. And it’s not far from NYC. He even claimed that he had already killed a person in the area,back in 1969,but this wasn’t confirmed by the investigations.

It’s weird that Debbie Harry would make such incredible claims. Her life in the last years is about some truly weird elite stuff and let’s not forget she is a participant in Marina Abramovic’s “spiritual cooking” sessions.

Blondie also had Gary Valentine in their ranks,as their original keyboard player (and a founding member of the band too),whose real name is Gary Lachman,nowadays a renowned researcher of the Occult and an author of many books, including one upon the subject of -who else ?- Aleister Crowley.

He has his own YouTube channel and anyone can watch his work there.

He said that in the first days of Blondie, when they were unknown and skint,they used to live together in a shabby apartment in downtown NY and that Debbie Harry and her lifelong boyfriend and Blondie member Chris Stein were deeply into practicing black magick,seances,anything that is Occult in nature.

He is the one who makes many references to David Byrne too and his weird lifestyle and ideas.

Jonathan Demme,the film maker who did Silence of the Lambs,was also connected with the scene and with David Byrne in particular.

This Puzzling Evidence video,I think it is made by Jonathan Demme,isn’t it ?

I don’t think he directed it, but Jonathan Demme was also a part of Church of Subgenius, and Puzzlin’ Evidence was named after their official broadcast called Puzzling Evidence on KPFA 94.1 FM, a Radio station from Berkeley, California. Yes, it’s still going.

Wow, fascinating!! Thanks for sharing, you know a lot about Blondie.

Not as much as you know about David Byrne though !

I made a mini research and I was surprised to find out that he has also written a book called Strange Rituals. Well…
