"Sax and Violins" is a song by American rock band Talking Heads, written by David Byrne. It appears on the soundtrack for the 1991 film Until the End of the World. It was also released as a successful airplay single and charted at number one on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart.[1] The title is a play on the phrase "sex and violence".
The song was later released on the compilations Once in a Lifetime: The Best of Talking Heads and Sand in the Vaseline: Popular Favorites. It was released again in 2005 as a bonus track on the remastered edition of Naked.[2]
