* "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)" off ''Music/SpeakingInTongues''. David Byrne, the king of awkward, cynical nerds, slowly lets his guard down over the course of a five-minute song about how he found his girlfriend. This is probably [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative the most played Talking Heads song at weddings]]. The music video is also pretty heartwarming, with the first half being a montage of the band, including session musicians who worked on the recording and touring members who appeared in ''Film/StopMakingSense'', watching old home movies of themselves.
* "City Of Dreams" off "Music/TrueStories". A surprisingly optimistic track, especially as it's played over the end credits of [[Film/TrueStories the movie]], where it's followed by the sentence "If you can think of it, it exists somewhere."
