They Might Be Giants: Here Come the 123s

The new They Might Be Giants’ album and DVD, “Here Come the 123s” was released today. Now, if you’re an avid Disney channel watcher like us, you may have already heard a few songs from the follow-up to TMBGs’ kid-friendly album, “Here Come the ABCs”.

One song in particular that I CAN NOT GET OUT OF MY HEAD is “Zeroes”. It’s got such a catchy tune and a funky little beat and the most adorable little birdies and owls singing, “ZeroooooOOOOOes!”. I walk around singing that song all day long, not even realizing it until the bug looks at me and says, “Mommy. No singing!” At least her demand doesn’t come out in a British accent followed by, “That wus tha waust awdition EVA!” (“Waust” translates to “worst” in case you haven’t figured that out.)

Anyway, we’ve been long time fans of They Might Be Giants and just love that they’ve branched out to produce some fun music for the kids.

I can’t find the “Zeroooooes!” video to embed in this post, so the best I can do is direct you HERE to hear the song and watch the video (Click the video tab). I even grabbed the cute owl desktop wallpaper background from their site (Click link, right-click image and “set as desktop background”).

Here is the They Might Be Giants – High Five video from the TMBG FREE Friday Night Family Podcast. It’s super dancey and sprinkled with a disco vibe:

If you share your iPod with the little one, I highly recommend subscribing to TMBG’s free weekly video Podcast HERE (Click link, click “music podcast”. That will open your iTunes program and allow you to subscribe).
