Everything That Happens Will Happen Today

The first collaboration by David Byrne and Brian Eno in 30 years.  They truly milk the most out of the most simplistic of chord progressions and song composition.  But, there's a reason I-IV-V A-A-B-A works so well.  Its comforting and speaks to the soul.  The title itself is a helpful reminder to seize the day.  It also speaks to the exponential speed of our connected world today.  I wonder if David can hit these high notes live.  They really are dramatic.
