There’s another version of this tune without the electronic clapping noises that I like a lot better

Not my taste either, but nothing wrong with it.

I’ve seen over 2000 concerts and shows and I’ve seen the Talking Heads the only two times they played at Red Rocks and I have seen the Tom Tom Club six times in concert. Absolutely one of the very best live bands you will ever see is the Tom Tom Club! One of those six shows was at CBGBs and that was amazing!

Also saw “The Heads” at the NightClub 930 in DC!

 
The original tiny 930 or the much larger new one?

Now that's damning with faint praise!

This is the first time I've heard this.
Definitely dated but great production.
I could do without the hand claps but... still sounds great!

The truth is, this band within a band was tight as it gets, and had the World Groove rhythms way before anyone else at the time... Jerry Harrison's solo stuff showed it, too. They made grooves with such raw, hip funkiness it still blows my mind, and they were so FUN, too!

This song epitomizes the 2 rating although I'm a little bit torn.  The description of 2 is "marginal," which I take to mean "it almost belongs here."  While that is pretty far from the truth, I have reserved 1 solely for Kate Bush, so 2 it is. 
The lowest I have ever scored anything on RP. Wanted some Dire Straits or Porcupine Tree, got a Cure and Janet Jackson clone. 
Disco shit.

CLAP CLAP CLAP CLACLACLACLAPAP. Good old 80s Drum-Machines :D Its fun to hear every 10 years, but I'd not call it a "good" song :)

And that's bad? HOW?!?!? Your icon says it all. I give it a 10; just because it's MY perogative - and it's a great set.

Not to be pretentious, but this should be listened to in its historical context. Sure, it sounds a little dated, but at the time it was as cool as it got. (Wow, is that a drum machine?) There was no band mightier in the 80's than the Heads, and Tina was their queen.... and her funky side project was the ultimate thing to be into as a music snob in 81-82, remember? Kind of like the Herbie Hancock tune where he did the first 'record scratching' turntable thingee. That's why Ken Burns put it on the Jazz CD compilation for his documentary. Nothing special now, but at the time.... it made history.
I beleive that talking heads and Tom Tom are dated as ever. Actually the passagge of time will bring them back into more perspective.
(pimp)
OMG make it stop!

That's exactly what just happened to me...and I miss TTC! D'oh! Well, I made it an 8.
The synth percussion/fake clap noise sure keeps it stuck in the 80s...I liked it back then, but it doesn't seem very timeless now.
how in the life con some one give a 9 to this song?

Nice to hear something from the Tom Tom Club other than "Gangster of Love." This is pretty good.
I think you mean "Genius of Love". It is nice to hear something other than that though.
It is funny before reading who was playing I said to myself " this sound in between Talking Heads and Chic"...I like Tom Tom Club..so refreshing..makes you feel like party and party..

Awesome! You never hear Tom Tom Club anymore. Thanks for including this in the mix!

When was this released?
October 1981
When I think Tom Tom club, I think Tina Weymouth, therefore I want to like it for little more reason than I enjoyed watching her up there plugging away looking cute an unassuming behind Byrne's antics in the Talking Heads. But there really isn't much going on in this song is there?
This is a different mix of this song than I usually hear; not quite as driving, but still acceptable.
Nice groove, deserves better than it's current 4.1 rating for sure.
never heard this one before... pretty nice considering....
When was this released?

OUCH! Hit my head against the monitor moving to the groove. To revive a comment from Dog_Breath below - it's not horrible. I'd give it a 4 too (and I did).
This is pretty good, but there are better Tom Tom Club tracks on their first album.
Why, Bill?
My God. What is wrong with RP tonight? This is terrible.
Bring on Blondie next and we have viva la New York. :D
...Sounds a little dated (stale)
