I know I'm not the only one here who adores this band.

They're brilliant, both musically and lyrically. My favorite song by them is The End Of The Tour, and my favorite album is John Henry (though The Else is a close second). I've seen them live twice.

Discuss.

EDIT: Aw, come on, people, I thought you were cooler than this. D:

I love They Might Be Giants! Their songs are so much fun to listen to, and have great lyrics. I really like "Prevenge".

I discovered them because of Homestar Runner and "Experimental Film" and quickly fell in love. They're great.

I rather like 'em.

I only really know the stuff they did for Homestar Runner, mind.

I was introduced to them through Tiny Toon Adventures. They did an episode dedicated to music and it featured two TMBG songs.

THE SUN IS A MASS OF ICANDESCENT GAS. A GIGANTIC NUCLEAR FURNACE. WHERE HYDROGEN IS BUILT INTO HELIUM AT A TEMPERATURE OF MILLIONS OF DEGREES.

Christ I love that song.

Dr. Worm is A+++++ too, it was my first TMBG song after all.

I also lol every time Malcom and the Middle comes on ): .....wait, it is Malcom in the Middle right?

Yeah, it's Malcolm In The Middle.

And I discovered 'em through Homestar Runner, too. Experimental Film is what got me hooked.

Only really know them from Malcolm in the Middle and Homestar Runner, but rather enjoy their stuff.

I actually had the CD single of "Boss of me" when I was about 11. It had two other tracks, which I remember being weird. It was destroyed in a Lucozade accident at summer camp.

Oh my God, you guys, I am so excited for their next album. It comes out this spring, but we don't know anything about it, which is a shame 'cause I'm uber-curious.

I just wanna know if it can top The Else or John Henry. If it does, I will orgasm repeatedly.

And just out of curiosity, Vagrant, what were the other two songs?

Whoops. Bit late here. I couldn't remember, Acey Enn. I did a quick bit of googling and the songs were "Reprehensible" and "Mr. Xcitement".

Ahh, awesome. I'm not huge on Mr. Xcitement (it's one of their worst songs, IMO), but I ADORE Reprehensible. The lyrics are particularly brilliant.

And my first song by them...well, TECHNICALLY it was Boss Of Me, but I count Experimental Film as my first, since it was the first one I heard that I knew was by TMBG. It really got me hooked on their stuff. My first album by them was The Spine.

Birdhouse In Your Soul.

The only TMBG song I give a fuck about, but it's a cracker.

Thing is with them, the rest of their stuff is sooo bad, I think Birdhouse in your Soul may be just a fluke. Law of averages if you like. It is a good song though.
