(We Intend To Cause Havoc) electrify Talking Heads’ existential classic with a searing reinterpretation. Once pioneers of Zambia’s psychedelic Afro-rock explosion in the 1970s, W.I.T.C.H. now channel their raw, hypnotic grooves and politically charged energy into a communal, heavy-hitting chant. Emmanuel “Jagari” Chanda leads the charge, transforming Byrne’s art-rock minimalism into a timeless, urgent anthem. Their version embodies the heartbeat of Naive Melodies: not mere imitation, but bold transformation—proof that “How did I get here?” still resonates across cultures and generations.\n\nhttps://bbemusic.bandcamp.com/album/w-i-t-c-h-once-in-a-lifetime-astr-nne-psycho-killer", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
