[edit] RRhoid Boyz

Hey, I Am Retarded doesn't necessarily mock mentally handicapped people. It could mean they're a little crazy in a fun way.

(aka mocking them)
It's not even doing that... the title is the only lyric...

[edit] you are wrong my friend

when you said they might be giants didn't write the song backyardigians they actualy wrote this they have also wrote the theme song to another kids show known as higgly town heroes ok and incase you're retarded for the past 3 years tmbg has been writing songs like this ok

The end of the show has Evan Lurie credited as having written the theme music.
Calm yourself, it's going to be ok, feistiness is going to get you nowhere.

[edit] I can't find my eye

Is this the same song as "Somebody took my eyeball"

No. STME is actually a Giants song, from TMBG Unlimited.

[edit] Redirect pages

Someone should go through and make pages for these songs that redirect here, it'll make searching for them somewhat less confusing. I sorta started doing this, but for some reason I was only able to make one page... well, whatever.

[edit] Broken Links

All the links to artist.mp3.com are broken and go directly to a spam page.

[edit] Star Wars Cantina

A friend of mine has a copy of Star Wars Cantina that's labeled as being by TMBG. Can someone tell me who originally did the song, and possibly put it up on the list for me? Thanks in advance. :) ~Anna Ng hears your words. 06:18, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

The song was originally done by Mark Jonathan Davis. krueger
Thank you so much! ^^ And man, that was fast editing there! Thanks again! ~Anna Ng hears your words. 07:00, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Two unknown songs

I have found two songs that were labeled as being by TMBG. Unfortunatley, they are not. The titles of these songs are: The Death of Optimus Prime and Weekend Drinking. Can anyone be extremely helpful and tell me the true artists of these songs? --Josherz 16:00, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

The Death of Optimus Prime is by a band called Mr. McFeely. That one was much easier to find than the other, which is two common words that people seem to do a lot. And I got a few "Long Tall Weekend - Drinking" links, which is interesting. Moxy Fruvous, a band people seem to label as TMBG a fair amount, has a song called A Drinking Song that might be it. I haven't heard the song but lyrics would probably help. Try Google? --badqueso 22:32, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
Sweet, that helps a ton!(and isn't Mr. McFeely the name of the mailman on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood?) hmm. And I figured out the the mystery of "weekend drinking," it's the song Drinkin' from Long Tall Weekend. Some idiot just labeled it incorrectly. (I guess that makes me an idiot for not noticing that earlier :-P) Anyway, thanks for helping out!--Josherz 22:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Songs wrongly attributed to TMBG

Can someone list the songs TMBG actually covered (even if they didn't write them)? That list seems somewhat extensive.

Do you mean songs in this list that They Might Be Giants has covered? None of them. For a general list of songs that TMBG has covered, see TMBG Remakes. -CapitalQ ♫ talk ♪ 00:25, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
