Earlier this summer Dave Matthews Bands covered this song on some of their shows. Took me back to my younger days. I remember hearing an extended mix of this that was great.

No No I like Talking Heads version, it just seems that this recording is off, or maybe it's live and I usually hate live taping. This isn't the Talking Heads version I have.
