They Might Be Giants

SethCort · 09-25-2008, 12:01 AM

So I'm kinda starting to get into them, I ripped John Henry to my computer but other than that I'm pretty unfamiliar with them.

Just figured I would ask you guys where a good place to start would be as far as their work goes or just what your favorite album of theirs is.

All I know of them:

You're not the boss of me now, and you're not sooo biggg.

Thanks to Malcom in the Middle.

Although I would also like TMBG recommendations.

My all time favorite song Istanbul

Im not sure if it's them but there's a song about whether something is or is not a letter and about getting spider...is this them and if so what album?

i kind of listened to them for a while.

but in my opinion, the best band that got semi-famous from a tv show is polaris (from the adventures of pete and pete).

i wouldn't really say they might be giants became semi-famous from malcolm in the middle since the band formed in 1982 and malcolm didn't air until 2000

i used to listen to this band back in middle school tbh

way before malcom in the middle they had a whole Tiny Toons episode which was just TMBG singing while everyone acted the song out

this includes Triangle man and Istanbul

i also heard they do the daily show theme song

~~Iscariot~~ · 10-14-2008, 03:51 PM

i remember that tiny toons ep

This thread is painful to read...

Also, why the hell is this in pop-punk?! Get Flood, Lincoln, and Apollo 18. In that order.

Hedgedive · 10-25-2008, 08:03 PM

ahhhmfg Flood is so good. yes^^^
