This was one of the first albums I bought, aged 15, with my paper round money, in 1990. I bought 4 cassettes this was my favourite, I think another one was by Deacon Blue, can't remember .

But what an album. I loved Birdhouse in Your Soul, by its constant airplay on our local radio station it was so quirky, wonderful and surreal. It was like the 2 geeks from your class (and I was a fellow geek myself) had been let loose in a recording studio.

But their music wasn't just cerebral and eccentric, it was tuneful and funny too.

Man I loved and still love They Might Be Giants.

They made being 15 more fun and life more bearable

They taught me how to lighten up and have fun

Indeed. Even if I often can't make it through the whole album, some fantastic songs on here and great stuff with things.
