David Byrne's follow up to Rei Momo, the 1992 LP "Uh-oh" co-incided with the official end of Talking Heads. A new producer helped bring a clean, commercial sound to David's oddball instrumentation and left of center lyrics. While the songs were still like children to him, the overall album needed to walk the line of appealing to his previous Talking Heads audience while also showing that he wasn't taking himself too seriously and didn't mind whether you liked it or not.

Tracks:
Now I'm your mom
Girls on my mind
Something ain't right
She's mad
Hanging upside down
A walk in the dark
Twistin' in the wind
The Cowboy Mambo (Hey lookit me now)
Monkey Man
A million miles away
Tiny Town
Somebody
Live cover: Who were you thinking of (w. Richard Thompson)
