"Once in a Lifetime" is a song by Talking Heads, from their album Remain in Light, Written by David Byrne and Brian Eno, it was later used for the promotion of the concert film Stop Making Sense, and was named one of the 100 most important American musical works of the 20th century by National Public Radio.



The music video features a bespectacled David Byrne dancing much like a marionette. The choreography was done by Toni Basil, famous for her hit song "Mickey". Byrne is shown making sudden flings of his arm, tapping his head, and getting on his hands and knees to pat the floor, much like simple tricks which can be done with actual marionettes. In the background, we see several David Byrnes dancing in perfect synchronisation, in the foreground, a large David Byrne is getting further and further out of synch. Some of Byrne's mannerisms (such as physical spasms, unfocussed eye movements, and sharp intakes of breath) were inspired by choreographer Basil showing him footage of epilepsy sufferers.



The video is noted for being exhibited in the New York Museum of Modern Art.
