Talking Heads frontman David Byrne has filed a copyright lawsuit against Florida politician, Charlie Crist, after the former governor used the Talking Heads' classic "Road to Nowhere" in his 2010 campaign for senator. Crist and his campaign were both unsuccessful in the election. The musician is suing the politician for $1 million.
Yesterday, the two met with each other to negotiate and decide on a solution. It was agreed that Charlie Crist would make a public apology for using "Road to Nowhere" in his campaign without proper consent in the place of a $1 million fine.
None
