I was reminded this week that They Might Be Giants' debut, self-titled album was released 40 years ago (November 1986). So please enjoy this tune.

I remember seeing that video on 120 Minutes and going out the next day to find the cassette. I've seen TMG probably 8 times at this point.

Lucky. I have never seen them play live…not that I can remember!

They're still around and touring. It's a great show and they usually play smaller, more intimate venues. I saw them a couple years ago. Keep an eye out.

I got to see them at my college campus' tiny concert hall called The Backdoor not long after this was released, when it was just the Johns. So, so great.

Thanks for the reminder.
