Science Is Real, According to They Might Be Giants

A favorite band of intellectual melody fans has to be They Might Be Giants. Now, these two fine gentlemen have come out with an album of children’s songs with a particularly interesting focus. Entitled, “Here Comes Science,” the album features songs like:

  • Meet the Elements
  • I Am a Paleontologist
  • My Brother the Ape
  • Put It to the Test
  • Photosynthesis
  • Speed and Velocity

They’ve also produced a set of cool videos for some of the songs, the most recent of which is for the song, “Science Is Real.”

Happy Friday! And remember, science is real.

(Thanks, DC, for the pointer!)

  1. I’ve always like They Might Be Giants, but I these songs/videos are absolutely fantastic. I’m going out and buying all their albums now.

  2. Be sure to check out their first two educational discs, “Here Come the ABC’s” and “Here Come the 123′s”. Great stuff for kids, and highly listenable for adults.
