Talking Heads’ \"And She Was\" (1985) is a quirky, upbeat new wave song by David Byrne. It tells the story of a girl who appears to float through life, reflecting Byrne’s lyrical playfulness and fascination with altered perception. The track features an infectious funk-inspired guitar riff and playful chorus. It reached the top 40 in the U.S. and remains a fan favorite for its catchy melody and imaginative music video (complete with simple animation to match the song’s dreamlike theme).
