TMBG Rock Kids Too!
Sadly, They Might be Giants is probably most famous for the likeable, if purile theme song to Malcom in the Middle ("You're not the Boss of Me Now. . ", and "Istanbul--not Constantinople". What you may not know is that they are prolific, hysterical and very, very talented musicians. With "Here Comes Science" they engage kids and adults alike with great tunes like "Meet the Elements" and lyrics like "Elephants are made of elements" or "The Sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma. " "Roy G. Biv" teaches the light spectrum in hummable fashion. The DVD is great too. They won a Grammy last year for "Here Come the ABCs". This disc will likely garner another. If you like great music, buy this. If you're like so many other parents who would rather put a bullet through their head than listen to another verse of Hannah Montana, give your children a musical choice that will stimulate their grey cells rather than numbing them. .


fun, fun, fun!
Keep it coming TMBG!. Keeping with true TMBG style, a CD of fun and quirky music with the added bonus of being educational! Loving every minute of it!

Videos on the DVD are fabulous and have actually peaked the interest of my own geeky not musically interested kid.


Best of the "Here comes" series
My kids like them all but this is definitely the best of the bunch. I have Here comes science, Here come the 123s and Here come the ABCs. The songs are great and the videos are very good. Highly recommended!.


They Might Be Awesome!
As most anyone reading this review probably already knows, "Here Come the ABC's" and "Here Come the 123's" both won Grammy's; proving what many of us have known for years. The Giants have done it again!

This, the third in their children friendly educational series, (forth, I guess, if you count NO!) following "Here Come the ABC's" and "Here Come the 123's". . . The John's are genius' of all things musical, philosophical, educational and scientifical. (yes, I know that's not a word)

My kids love these CD/DVD's!!!. . . and what's more important. . . I love them too!!! It's so hard to find materiel of this caliber that transcends generations. We watch them together and sing-along, at home and in the mini-van.

They Might Be Giants make learning fun, with catchy tunes, wacky puppets and various forms of animation. . . and all for a very reasonable price!

Is there anything they can't do!? (Rhetorical).


For all science lovers
I love this CD! All the geeky singalongs you can think of, and factually true too!.
