Talking Heads
Let's talk muzak....
I've always been one to live in the past as far as entertainment goes -- watched 1960s movies in the 1980s, and now I'm watching 198os filsm in the 'Noughties' -- and, with the treasure trove that is iTunes, I am now up to my ears in 1970s/1980s music... what a treat.
I'm currently totally obsessed with a live double album by the Talking Heads, 'The Name of This band is the Talking Heads.' The 1977-1979 period is by far the superior -- if you can, check out this album's version of Psycho Killer, The Book I Read, The Big Country, and Stay Hungry. Just immense.
If I hear one more James Blunt song, I will throw up.

Try listening to 6Music online or DAB - not a JB song within earshot!
Plenty of 'Heads too. All eras.
To my shame, fell asleep once watching "Stop Making Sense" - in my defence, I'd had a few beers and the rumbling from the Metro trains under the cinema was very conducive to a bit of shut-eye!
