A rare instance of David Byrne writing an unabashed, sincere love song, the track's instrumental foundation was created by the band spontaneously swapping instruments during rehearsals. The subtitle 'Naive Melody' refers to the repeating, simplistic bass and synth progression that anchors the piece. Featuring a celebrated synthesizer solo by Bernie Worrell, it stands as the most warm and emotionally direct composition in the band's catalog.
