They Might be Giants



The boys have finally discovered TMBG. I have always like that band since the 80's and now everything old is new again. It actually started with the baby. He loves the HOT DOG song from Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as well as the Higglytown Heroes. I tried to explain to the kids who that band was and I pulled out some old CD's and TAPES ( anyone remember TAPES?)

Now Reese has about 50 songs on his ipod. By far their favorites are the "Fingertips" songs. They wake up to "Mysterious Whispers" each morning.

Last night we given a live music video of "Particle Man". Reese sang a capella the other boys acted it out complete with props.

Even better we video taped it.

Blackmail anyone?

Too funny...Sam has actually been singing She's Actual Size around the house. "Words fail, buildings crumble, the ground opens wide...". Although I will point out that his favorite songs right now are Cat Scratch Fever (Ted Nugent) and Lightning Stikes (Aerosmith)...so the boy makes me proud. :)

Hmmm.... then I'm sure you guys have got "They Might Be Giants: Here Come the ABCs!" It's kid music that won't make you want to pry your eyes out.

Hey MEL -- great to find you in the blogosphere! :D I added a link to you from my Keep Your Eye on the Kids blog so I can return and check up your beautiful children. And their taste in music. ;D
