Selalu ada banyak alasan untuk menonton film konser seperti konser Talking Heads di Pantages Theater Desember tahun 1983 yang kemudian langsung dijadikan sebuah film dokumenter dengan judul “Stop Making Sense”. Menonton Talking Heads dalam sebuah konser sedikit mirip dengan Rock N Roll yang dipadukan dengan “Jane Fonda’s Workout”. Karena penampilan Talking Heads di konser tersebut sangatlah enerjik dan luar biasa. “Stop Making Sense” direkam selama dua pertunjukan langsung.

Talking Heads adalah sebuah band New Wave dari New York yang berpusat pada bakat luar biasa pada penyanyi utamanya, David Byrne. Penampilan panggungnya kerap seperti David Bowie, ia selalu menunjukan pantomim. Tetapi pada film “Stop Making Sense” ketika kamu menonton bukan hanya aksi panggung, banyak aspek seperti kostum, set panggung yang cukup unik di konser Talking Heads tersebut.

Menonton film dokumenter konser Talking Heads tidak seperti nonton konser pada umumnya, di bagian awal film David Byrne berjalan di atas sebuah panggung kosong, dan mengenakan sepatu berwarna putih kemudian meletakan boombox dan kamera pun secara perlahan bergerak ke atas memperlihatkan byrne sudah membawa gitar dan memainkan lagu Psycho Killer versi akustik. Di lagu kedua “Heaven” Tina Weymouth bergabung ke atas panggung, dan di lagu ketiga “Thank You for Sending Me an Angel” Chris Frantz pun bergabung ke atas panggung, di lagu keempat “Found a Job” Jerry Harrison bergabung ke atas panggung lengkap sudah personil Talking Heads di atas panggung Pantages Theater.

Saya Baru menyadari ketika nonton secara utuh film “Stop Making Sense” semua personilnya tidak muncul secara bersamaan di awal lagu tetapi dipirit per lagu, penanda panggung sudah terisi dengan personil Talking Heads dan additional di lagu “Burning Down the House”. Dan momen yang momen paling menarik perhatian saya adalah, ketika lagu “Life During Wartime” dibawakan oleh mereka, pertama-tama mereka loncat-loncat seperti pemanasan akan berolahraga, seperti biasa ditengah lagu byrne menari entah apa nama gerakannya tetapi cukup unik.

Kurang lebih seperti ini gerakan byrne:

 

 

Kabarnya film “Stop Making Sense” akan hadir kembali di bioskop dengan kualitas 4K yang di restorasi ulang oleh A24. Edisi Deluxe dari soundtrack film konser legendaris ini akan dirilis dalam bentuk 2-LP Set dan Digital edisi terbatas dengan dua lagu yang belum pernah dirilis sebelumnya pada tanggal 18 Agustus.

There are always many reasons to watch a concert film such as the Talking Heads concert at the Pantages Theater in December 1983 which was immediately made into a documentary with the title “Stop Making Sense”. Watching Talking Heads in concert is a bit like Rock N Roll combined with “Jane Fonda’s Workout”. Because Talking Heads’ appearance at the concert was very energetic and extraordinary. “Stop Making Sense” was recorded during two live performances.

Talking Heads is a New Wave band from New York that focuses on the extraordinary talent of its lead singer, David Byrne. His stage appearance is often like David Bowie, and he always shows a pantomime. But in the movie “Stop Making Sense” when you watch, it’s not just the stage action. There are many aspects, such as the costumes, and the stage set, which are unique at the Talking Heads concert.

Watching the Talking Heads concert documentary is not like watching a concert in general. In the early part of the film, David Byrne walks onto an empty stage. He puts on his white shoes, then puts down the boombox, and the camera slowly moves up, showing that Byrne is already carrying a guitar and playing Psycho Killer in an acoustic version. On the second song, “Heaven,” Tina Weymouth joined the stage; on the third song, “Thank You for Sending Me an Angel,” Chris Frantz also joined the stage. On the fourth song, “Found a Job,” Jerry Harrison joined the stage. The Talking Heads personnel were complete on the Pantages Theater stage.

I just realized when I watched the movie “Stop Making Sense” that all of the members did not appear simultaneously at the beginning of the song but were split up per song. The stage marker was already filled with Talking Heads members and additional on the song “Burning Down the House.” And the moment that caught my attention the most was when they performed the song “Life During Wartime.” First of all, they were jumping up and down as if warming up for exercise. As usual, in the middle of the song, Byrne danced whatever the name of the move was, but it was unique.

More or less like this Byrne’s movement:

 

 

The film “Stop Making Sense” will be back in theaters with 4K quality which A24 has restored. The Deluxe edition of the legendary concert film soundtrack will be released as a 2-LP Set and a limited edition Digital with two previously unreleased tracks on August 18.
