Uh-Oh, Love Comes to Town is the name of a song released by the Talking Heads. With a funky bassline and the use of steel drums, this song has more of a pop groove to it and noticeably differs from the rest of the songs on the album. This would be a preview to the exploration of funk and world music that Talking Heads would play in 1978's More Songs About Buildings and Food and throughout the remainder of their career.
