"Let's Talk About Me" is a song by The Alan Parsons Project, the opening track to their 1985 album Vulture Culture. The song was co-written by Eric Woolfson and Alan Parsons and sung by David Paton. It was released as the album's first single and charted in several countries. A music video was created to promote the single, which was directed by Ron Jacobs and produced by Jon Small Productions.
The song was written about the Me generation and features dialogue from Lee Abrams, who was with the band at a London restaurant. Woolfson said that Abrams was "performing his party piece at dinner which consisted of a 10 minute rant on any subject you cared to mention, as well as his apparent skill as an air traffic controller". Abrams' dialogue was captured on a Sony Walkman and parts of it were incorporated into "Let's Talk About Me". Abrams was credited under the anagram Mr Laser Beam in the album's liner notes.
