Every time he was picking a member of the band, he thought, “that’s not my beautiful wife.”

And you might ask yourself (David), “where is that beautiful bass player Tina?”
Same as it ever was...
I really have very little patience for it any more.
I enjoyed Talking Heads’ first two albums back when I was a kid, but David Byrne stopped mattering to me musically many decades ago. The idea that he’s still around making music is quaint. The idea that he’s apologizing for not including women on his album which no one will buy is even quainter.
Rouse Jim Henson and get him to apologize for only one female muppet among dozens,and it’s an obnoxious fat spoiled pig.
I didn’t like him when I wa a kid because he seemed too showoffy at the time and I didn’t like his voice. Too pretentious. I actually kind of like some of that stuff better now for the 80s flavor.

At least he had gay muppets.
Every time you set out to make music with a very small group of people you must ensure proper “representation” of various aggrieved sectors....
He says “it’s not who I am” but he showed us he’s the kind of guy who is willing to perform music without always “representing” women every time. What a horrible horrible person.
In fact, he needs to undergo “gender transformation” immediately so that he can “represent” women in the future. /s
They were closeted though.
The best kind.
Her snippy remark is exactly why men don’t like working with women.
he needs a female, a trandsgender, a handicapped, a hispanic, a black, a pacific islander, a bullied student, an athiest, a native american, an aboriginee...and any and all members of politically correct special protection groups who are easily offended
The Village People were “All Male”, too.......Just sayin’
