If you are a fan of TMBG, I highly recommend it. It is completely delightfully them, as well as being new and hilarious and awesome. I haven't had a chance to listen through it many times yet, but some of my favorites include "Can't Keep Johnny Down", "Old Pine Box", "When Will You Die", and also "The Lady and the Tiger", for sheer TMBG bizarreness. If you aren't a fan of TMBG (or even if you are), give this song a try! And then try some of their other hits, like "Particle Man" or "Birdhouse In Your Soul."
*Frequently, I like the UK convention of pluralizing the verb after band names, etc. (e.g. "They Might Be Giants have a new album out"), but it feels weirdly pretentious of me to adopt it, since I'm not from the UK. Also, I wouldn't use it in all the environments where they do, anyway. [/linguistic sidenote]
