We are a band from Brooklyn that has been around for twenty somethin' years now. We have two new albums out right now. One is for people like us and it is called The Else. You can check it out at iTunes by clicking here.

We also have a special kids project, a DVD and CD set called "Here Come the 123s". You can get it shipped directly to your house from Amazon by clicking here.

You might not know we got a Grammy a couple of years back for the theme to Malcolm in the Middle, and we do the music for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (we recorded Bob Moulds theme, and wrote and recorded all the bombastic orchestral music with our bombastic orchestral friends).

We also have two free podcasts--an audio one for adults featuring rarities, original stuff and live recordings and a new video one for kids that comes out every week! If you're interested in the adult audio podcast just click here for audio podcast!

If you want to see the free weekly kids video podcast just click here! It's really exactly that easy.

Or you can sign up for TMBGs free mp3 service by clicking here for free MP3 service!.

We really appreciate all your interest and support, and welcome limericks and haiku from all.

OFFICIAL STUFF:
This is the official They Might Be Giants myspace page. There are no others approved by the band. Thanks to everyone at myspace for their remarkable encouragement and support of the band. Please note that there are no other official They Might Be Giants pages on myspace, and John Flansburgh and John Linnell are not affiliated with ANY other myspace pages. Idlewild Recordings and the band's management run this page on a day-to-day basis. We don't IM, and we cannot answer every message. The band will be posting songs brand new and shockingly old here, and TMBG will be sending out the respectfully occasional bulletin to keep their myspace friends up to date with all things TMBG.

There once was a band of giants.

That sometimes write songs about science.

I wait each week for the Johns

To put another song on

their podcast that I've become reliant.



Keep up the great work guys! I wish my new career didn't pull me in so many different directions. Thanks for connecting to those of us that can't connect in person.
Peace,
Howard

There once was a kid who was bored.
So he sat 'round all day and he snored.
With so little movement,
He saw worse improvement,
And his body's now one with the floor!
Jake [7DS]

Haiku: George Carlin

Counterculture man
Rufus has taken his last
Phonebooth ride, goodbye
John Proctor (Delorean owner)





Jul 25 2008 10:13 PM

OK
I REMEMBER I SAW YOU GUYS IN NYC EARLIER THIS YEAR.
IT WAS AN AMAZING SHOW I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

Interestingly enough, you guys were created around 1982ish? That's around when my DeLorean was made. Now, TMBG and DeLoreans are great.
You should make a song about them, cause they're the best cars ever. OK THIS IS A LONG COMMENT BYE.

Any chance of coming to play once again where the geckos play?
Where you can't understand a word the people say? Where the noon day sun burns you alive, by the ramp for interstate 45?
Unfortunately you cannot sleep in the Astrodome.

There once was a hot steamy summer
On most days it was a real bummer
But They Might Be Giants
Bought me an appliance
That made ice cubes the size of a Hummer

Oh man, I don't think I'll be able to see you guys on the 9th or 10th, because I'm only 17...

Jul 25 2008 7:47 PM

Ok guys, summer movie. Here we go. The dark knight.

There once was a man, lips bright red, should have had his own movie instead, bale went delirious, from the phrase why so serious, and now batman's mother is dead.

Jul 25 2008 7:37 PM

um okay heres my attempt at a limerick!
There once was a girl who wanted to see a movie but she had a hard time deciding cause she was so choosy. There were superhero flix at the Box Office top's or SNL Alum comidies that had been critiqued as flops.
So instead she went ahead and saw an obscure foreign film cause she's groovy, and they rock!

don't know if i actually have the format down, but there ya go, I shall start working on a haiku next...

There once was a Batman Named Bale,
whom Bobbies did haul off to jail.
If it's true they'll enlist his Mother and sis,
and Batman will have to pay Bail!

George Carlin called me,
Swearing like a sailor man
As the angels sang.

Jessie Helms: Gone, y'all!
I shall remember his name
As I wipe my butt.

Haiku:

Found fruit flies feasting
Munching on my mango, man!
Pesky pests persist
Briles





Jul 25 2008 1:54 PM

There was a man known as “SID”
He signed my accordion as a kid.
With him was Flans, they played some hot jams,
Will that humpback fall victim to squid?

(PS: Still have that piece of sheet music 'Whirlpool' from when you played WDRE in Jenkintown PA after the release of Factory Showroom)!

I got bored, and wrote these, sorry if you were looking for something that was actually serious @.@ I utterly failed if that was the case

Boredom Haiku:
I don't like Haikus...
OH GOD!!! A FLYING MONGOOSE!!!
...I've had too much sweets...

Non-sensical Limerick:
There was a boy who wanted to see the Dark Knight,
and his parents said the next day they just might,
So he went to bed,
woke up in somebody elses house and said
"That must have been some crazy party last night"

There once was a man with a gun
He thought that murder was fun
That man wound up dead
and Highlander said
You know there can be only one.

Florida summer
Retreat to the cool movies
It lasts all year long

I'm so sad I can't go to the free shows! They're so far away. You should come back to Florida and do a show. It doesn't even have to be free! ;-D
