Thanks... but, I just listened to the whole album (created in 1981) and couldn't find a song that sounded like the one on the video... closest I could find was a song titled "Regiment"... but, it was not the same song as best I can tell.... but it does sound similar.

What is the title for the song?

I may have found out why I can't find the song on the album you mentioned...

Is the title Qu'ran?

If so... then, this Wikipedia information may be the reason I can not find the song.

"The track "Qu'ran", which features samples of Qur'anic recital, was replaced by "Very, Very Hungry" in some later releases. On some early editions of the record, "Very, Very Hungry" was included along with "Qu'ran" as a non-cassette and non-LP CD only release.

The times for the tracks are from the 1981 Sire Records LP release."

Oh and I might add this little bit of information as to why it was left off (also Wikipedia source):

25th anniversary re-release
The album was reissued on 27 March 2006 in the UK and 11 April 2006 in the US, remastered and with seven extra tracks. To mark the reissue, two songs will be made available to download online, consisting of the entire multitracks. Under the Creative Commons License, members of the public are able to download the multitracks, and use them for their own remixes.

The track "Qu'ran" was excluded from this release without comment. However, in an interview for Pitchfork Media about the 2006 reissue, Byrne said:

"Way back when the record first came out, in 1981, it might have been '82, we got a request from an Islamic organization in London, and they said, 'We consider this blasphemy that you put grooves to the chanting of the Holy Book.' And we thought, 'Okay, in deference to somebody's religion, we'll take it off.' You could probably argue for and against monkeying with something like that. But I think we were certainly feeling very cautious about this whole thing. We made a big effort to try and clear all the voices, and make sure everybody was okay with everything. Because we thought, 'We're going to get accused of all kinds of things, and so we want to cover our asses as best we can.' So I think in that sense we reacted maybe with more caution than we had to. But that's the way it was."[5]

Glad I cleared that up for you. I actually looped the audio at some point so the original song is much shorter.

Is that footage actual early 90's corporate video?

From your videos I imagine that you guys listen to "My Life in The Bush of Ghosts" all day every day.

Yeah, nice big monitors. Actually I've been stuck on Laffy Taffy for the last two years. Damn you Mr. Laffy Taffy.

Wow- very nice!

I am one of the biggest David Byrne fans EVER. Well, the biggest one in my Chicago neighborhood :)

P.S. I can also imagine this video with "Big Business" as a track.
