This is the song Trump should be playing at his rallies. The first single taken from the band’s 1983 “Speaking in Tongues” LP, it became the highest-charting single of their career, peaking at No. 9. The song grew out of a jam by drummer Chris Frantz, who was inspired by seeing a Parliament/Funkadelic concert, and bassist Tina Weymouth. The video was produced and directed by frontman David Byrne.
The single failed to make the UK charts, but in 1999 Tom Jones and the Cardigans hit No. 7 there with this remake.
