Poll question: Favorite They Might Be Giants album?
I know I left a few out, but I figured these were the most major, and people haven't had "The Spine" long enough to decide if it's their favorite.

4. I can't believe "John Henry" is gettin' no love...
In my mind, it's the strongest album all the way through.

5. Had to vote for Lincoln for 2 reasons...
Two of the all-time best breakup songs EVER!

1. I've Got a Match
(this was my breakup song for my first boyfriend)

2. They'll Need a Crane
(this was my sister's breakup song for HER first boyfriend, which coincidently was not too long after my breakup with my bf!)

8. I voted "Flood"
with "Lincoln" as a close second...

"I came back as a bag of groceries
accidentally taken off the shelf
before the expiration date..."

Always brings a tear to my eye and sends a chill down my spine...

9. Did a large procession wave their torches as my head fell in the basket
And was everybody dancing on the casket?


Love that song, though my all time favorite is Birdhouse in Your Soul. By a lot.

10. Oh course...
Can't let this thread die without mentioning...

"Ana Ng and I are growing old
and we still haven't walked in the glow
of each other's majestic presence."

or...

"Wake up and smell the cat food, in your bank account
but don't try to stop the tail that wags the hound."

11. I did a dance to 'Particle Man' for a high school final project
it was for an english class called 'Zen & Emerson'. My friend and I acted out the song. It was kind of absurd, but so was teaching a clas like that to a bunch of 16 year olds. We got an 'A'.
