* ''Film/QueensLogic'': When Eliot is greeting people as they enter [[ItMakesSenseInContext Ray's bachelor party that isn't]], he says, "This ain't no bachelor party, [[Music/FearOfMusic this ain't no disco]]."

* Music/WeirdAlYankovic's original song "Dog Eat Dog" is written in the style of a Talking Heads song. In live performances, he even dons a ''Film/StopMakingSense''-inspired big suit.
* Music/ThePixies' "Dig for Fire" is also written in the style of Talking Heads, as are and the first and third thirds of "Job in the City" by Music/RedVox. In fact, Talking Heads has long been one of the more popular 70's/80's acts to pastiche, even within their own time (exemplified on songs like "She Blinded Me With Science" by Music/ThomasDolby, [[Music/{{Lodger}} "DJ"]] by Music/DavidBowie, and even "Sports Men" by [[Music/YellowMagicOrchestra Haruomi Hosono]]), due to both their sheer influence on popular music and their highly distinctive styles.
* Music/{{Radiohead}}'s name comes from the track "Radio Head" off of ''Music/TrueStories''.
* The opening lyrics for Music/SherylCrow's hit "All I Wanna Do" are based on the chorus for "Life During Wartime"
