Music reviews of Here Come The ABCs
Music Review: The Usual TMBG "Geek" Rock CD - Rated T (for toddlers)
Rating: 5 Stars
Here Come the ABCs [CD/DVD Combo]
Since its debut, my kids absolutely LOVE listening to this entire CD over and over again. Why? TMBG's children's songs are just as infectious as the adult songs they wrote in the late 80s/early 90s (remember "Istanbul-Not Constantinople"?). The song melodies and chord selections are not the only eclectic traits that make TMBG tunes so unusually appealing to our children (and to the inner child in each adult!); its the ordinary yet peculiar lyrics that make TMBG songs notable and easily assimilated into our minds for later retrieval. So, don't be surprised if you find your kids AND YOURSELF start humming "I C U" in the car on the way to school ... What tickled me even more about this CD is that my youngest learned her ABCs before she turned one, just from reciting the songs over and over and over and over and over again ... And the bundled DVD made the learning experience more stimulating and permanent, amplifying the usual TMBG weird factor with what appeared to be animated nonsense to us, but was really some intelligible, educational cartoons for my kids. I never would have guessed that band I listened to as a young adult would ever captivate my own kids! The verdict? - 5 stars - Buy it when you see it on the shelf, especially if bundled with DVD.

Learn the ABC's the fun way with The Grammy® - winning rock legends: THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS 'HERE COME THE ABCs' CD + DVD features 24 New Songs PLUS 24 Music Videos.

The DVD contains over 45 minutes of animations, the wonderful puppets of the Deeply Felt Puppet Theater and performances!No stranger to the realm of children's records, They Might Be Giants have seen success with their CD No! and the book and CD combo Bed, Bed, Bed. Their latest CD, Here Come The ABCs, offers up twenty-five alphabetically themed songs. However, as is their charming way, the two Johns (Flansburgh and Linnell), use the letters as merely the connective tissue, allowing them to pursuit intriguing flights of fancy that consider everything from the relative power of letters and sounds to animal hijinks. Just as they've always done, there are wistful ballads and high octane rockers. TMBG have always been a family-friendly band, and this disc works just fine for adult fans, who can rightfully consider this simply their newest release. --David Greenberger
