Girl In Red Drops A Groovy Cover Of Talking Heads’ ‘Girlfriend Is Better’ For ‘Stop Making Sense’ Tribute Album

Ahead of an upcoming Talking Heads tribute album Everyone’s Getting Involved, Girl In Red has shared a cover of the band’s fan-favorite, “Girlfriend Is Better.”

On Girl In Red’s updated track, the singer/songwriter gives the song some funkadelic queer energy with soulful vocals and thumping percussion.

“Talking Heads is an iconic band that helped define my identity when I was a teenager and they continue to inspire young people all around the world,” said Girl In Red in a statement. “Being a part of this tribute is so sick and I’m super grateful I was given the opportunity.”

Upon the release of the “Girlfriend Is Better” cover, A24 has also revealed the tracklist for the cover album. The tracklist mirrors that of the original Stop Making Sense album, and features covers by Miley Cyrus, Teezo Touchdown, Paramore, BADBADNOTGOOD, and more.
