Customer Reviews Very nice, but why those B-sides? The first is that it's not readily available in most of the world without import fees, and the other is that it's really short (I think this is due to chart regulations in the United Kingdom). This is a British import, which is unfortunate in two ways. I am glad to have a recording of the title track, and "Reprehensible" is one of the best songs They Might Be Giants have ever done (especially that clarinet solo), but those two songs and "Mr. Xcitement," a weird spy music/rap combination that probably has less of the Johns in it than any other TMBG song, are all you get here, and the two B-sides are available elsewhere. Unfortunately, it seems like the days when TMBG released excellent and otherwise unavailable songs ("She Was A Hotel Detective," "Welcome To The Jungle," "It's Not My Birthday," etc. ) as B-sides are over. This single is good as far as it goes, but it leaves me wanting more in the B-side department.
Typical excellent fare from the Johns
The first good album TMBG have brought out
