You are kidding, right? Psycho Killer isn't well-known or popular enough for you? I guess we shouldn't have had Go Your Own Way, either, because that song was never actually a popular Fleetwood Mac song...
I assume you are referring to Burning Down The House, Once In A Lifetime or (maybe) And She Was. Burning Down The House would be a horrible choice (though I fear we will get it if we ever get Talking Heads DLC), Once In A Lifetime would be slightly better and And She Was would be a middling choice by Talking Heads standards.
I want more Talking Heads as well, but I'd almost prefer their non-popular songs.

Burning down the house would be much better than once in a lifetime considering once in a lifetime has barely any guitar and the guitar that it has is only in about the last 30 seconds to minute of the song.
That being said I agree that their lesser known stuff would be much better. I wish they would put out Speaking in Tongues full album.

Actually, fair call on Once In A Lifetime. I generally only listen to the Stop Making Sense version, which does have more guitar than the studio version, but I'd forgotten how little there was in the album version. I'll amend that and say that either of them would be horrible choices. Although if they released the SMS versions of them, I could be persuaded otherwise...

Considering how iconic Talking Heads are, the band is highly deserving of at least a six pack. My ideal collection would look something like this:
Talking Heads Pack 01
And She Was
(Nothing But) Flowers
Uh-oh, Love Comes To Town
Pulled Up
Memories Can't Wait
Life During Wartime
I can actually see HMX releasing something like this, although they might replace one of their lesser-known songs with Burning Down The House for recognizability.
Afraid nobody 'round here
understands my potato
They think I'm only a spud boy
looking for a real tomato
Devo - "Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA"
I would take a lot of Talking Heads songs instantly.
My favorite song by them has got to be Cities. (very underrated)
Life During Wartime is also awesome.

That's not too bad a pack there, Rune. Good mix of hits and solid album cuts (Pulled Up is one right out of left-field). I would be incredibly surprised if we get Talking Heads DLC without Burning Down The House, though.
My Talking Heads 01 would be:
Don't Worry About The Government
Thank You For Sending Me An Angel
Life During Wartime
Burning Down The House (Live)
The Lady Don't Mind
Wild Wild Life
I've actually tipped 77 as one of the albums that will be released after they are done with the three announced albums. I hope I'm right...
