defrogThey Might Be Giants has another new kids CD coming out: Here Comes Science!, featuring this song about the elements.
It’s pretty good, though it’s not quite as good as Tom Lehrer’s take on the periodic table.
No matter. I’m a fan of a lot of TMBG music, to include their previous “kids” records. And I hear the album’s opening track, “Science Is Real”, is already generating some Biblical heat in the Amazon.com comments section.
Which not only makes it a must-have, but also a must-listen for kids. I’m not a big believer in the “kids” genre of music, but if we have to have one, I’d much rather they listen to TMBG singing science blasphemy than, say, Hannah Montana singing whatever the hell it is she sings about.
(Okay, I’d rather kids listen to Slayer than Hannah Montana, but look, that’s just me.)
So I’ll be adding that to the music collection, you bet.
Sing a song of science,
This is dF
