| | David Byrne: Look into the Eyeball - PopMatters Music Review |
 | | Look into the Eyeball boasts delicate ballads and funky dance songs peppered with electronic beats and grooves, crisp beautiful strings, snippets of soul, funk and dance, and the signature clean electric guitar characteristic of early Talking Heads. |
 | | Look into the Eyeball's cover, on the other hand, shows Byrne's face in much the same angle as Feelings, except that he is decisively human-his hair is graying, his skin is wrinkled, and his face has the solemn calm of wisdom. |
 | | And that the sadness of some of these melodies are countered by the vigor and persistence of the groove." The grooves, the alternating dissonance and harmony of the powerfully rich strings, the graceful melodies, seem like incantations for us to rise up and celebrate the power of music along with Byrne. |
