«Like Humans Do» is the fourth track from David Byrne’s Look into the Eyeball and was also released as a single in 2001. Most notably, the radio edit version of the song (which omits the line referring to cannabis) was selected by Microsoft[1] as the sample music for Windows XP to demonstrate the new Windows Media Player,[2] though it was only included in early releases of the operating system. It was also included as a sample track on the Rio Karma media player.

The song was also featured on Byrne’s 2007 live album Live from Austin, Texas and 2004’s Live at Union Chapel. In the latter film, he explains that the song is about trying to love human beings despite their failings, by taking a «Martian’s perspective» on humanity and trying to accept them for what they are.

Текст песни «David Byrne — Like Humans Do(музыка из Windows XP)»

(музыка из Windows XP, долгое время выносившая мне мозг)

For millions of years, In millions of homes
A man loved a woman, A child it was born
It learned how to hurt and it learned how to cry
Like Humans Do

Chorus:
I’m breathing in
I’m breathing out
So slip inside this funky house
Dishes in the sink
The TV’s in repair
Don’t look at the floor
Don’t go up the stairs
I’m achin’
I’m shakin’
I’m breakin’
Like Humans Do
I’m achin’like
I’m shakin’like
I’m breakin’like
Like Humans Do

I work and I sleep and I dance and I’m gay
I’m eatin, I’m laughin and I’m lovin myself
I only watch TV eccept when im stoned,
Like Humans Do

[Repeat Chorus]

I’m breathing in
I’m breathing out
So slip inside this funky house
Wiggle while you work
Anybody can
The rain is pourin in on a woman and a man

I’m achin’like
I’m shakin’like
I’m breakin’like
Like Humans Do
I’m breathing in
I’m breathing out

Like Humans Do

I’m breathin’ in
I’m breathin’ out
Ohhhhhh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohhhhhh!

Dishes in the sink

Don’t look at the floor
Don’t go up the stairs

I’m achin’
I’m shakin’
I’m breakin’
Like Humans Do

I’m achin’
I’m shakin’
I’m breakin’
Like Humans Do

I work & I sleep & I dance & I’m dead
I’m eatin’, I’m laughin’, I’m loving myself
I never watch TV
except when i’m stoned
Like Humans Do

I’m breathin’ in
I’m breathin’ out
Ohhhhhh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohhhhhh!

I’m breakin’
Like Humans Do

I’m breathin’ in
I’m breathin’ out
Ohhhhhh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohhhhhh!

Wiggle while you work
Anybody can
The rain is pouring in
on a woman & a man

I’m achin’
I’m shakin’
I’m breakin’
Like Humans Do
I’m breathin’ in
I’m breathing out
Ohhhhhh!
