Talking Heads - (Nothing But) Flowers -
source: Adamfulgence 2014年7月31日
Talking Heads is an American new wave band (l975-1991). The song, “Nothing but flowers” comes from their last album, “Naked” (1988)
This song is a satire in that the lyrics are expressing a pretty exact opposite to any song that would place the presence/importance of nature/simplicity in our lives ahead of the advances of modern life as we see it now. It is often mentioned as a direct contrast to Joni Mitchell's song, Big Yellow Taxi. That's why I agree with many others that it's a clever satire.
“Talking Heads” is a term used in the TV industry. On news shows, for example, it refers to the camera’s focus on the head and upper shoulders of the newscaster. As a result, the head appears disconnected from the body. The band created its name from this term.

Original by John Denver 1974
(Instrumental)
Lyrics of John Denver's version:
You fill up my senses
like a night in the forest
like the mountains in springtime,
like a walk in the rain
like a storm in the desert,
like a sleepy blue ocean
you fill up my senses,
come fill me again.
Come let me love you,
let me give my life to you
let me drown in your laughter,
let me die in your arms
let me lay down beside you,
let me always be with you
come let me love you,
come love me again.
(Instrumental)
You fill up my senses
like a night in the forest
like the mountains in springtime,
like a walk in the rain
like a storm in the desert,
like a sleepy blue ocean
you fill up my senses,
come fill me again.
