Thanks @ledbowman and everyone else for keeping the topic alive!

Also, since I'll be out of town tomorrow and away from my computer until Saturday I'm going to post today's song right now and tomorrow's song later tonight. Sorry!

Day Four: They Might Be Giants The Statue Got Me High

A two man project consisting of The Two Johns, John Flansburgh and John Linnell, thats been going for almost 40 years strong now. They Might Be Giants have a long history, one thats dotted with the mens often humorous and wacky lyrics and visuals. Early in their career (and, indeed, several times after) They Might Be Giants put out ads allowing for fans to call a service dubbed Dial-a-Song which would offer short songs in exchange for money. Later in the mens lifetimes, theyd release albums exclusively written for children that would garner them awards and nominations, in addition to more fans. A number of people remember them for their music showing up on Nickelodeon via commercials or Tiny Toon Adventures where some of their songs were reformatted for the show and accompanied by short cartoons. Its this users opinion that They Might Be Giants were an important facet of the 1990s. Their videos and music helped mold a certain weird, and quirky aspect of the decade that no other really touched upon. They Might Be Giants are silly, yes, but I absolutely love them for it.
