All right, this is a beautiful day, everybody. It's podcast 57A, I'm your host, Cecil. And everything about it is a podcast. You heard 'Mrs. Train', from some EP; 'Drink!', live in Nyack; They Might Be Giants' 'Don't Let's Start', the original song that started it all off for the band back in the 80s; 'Got Getting Up So Down', from the Dunkin' sessions; then 'Waves', one of the tracks off of, uh, Here Comes Science, I'm not sure if that made the album or not, might've been rejected; 'Tubthumping' from, uh, the cover project from the A.V. Club with The Onion...singers singin' along; you heard 'Pleather', also from the Dunkin' sessions; and then, of course, 'Oregon', by, uh John Linnell from State Songs. I'm your host, Cecil Portesque. You're listening to They Might Be Giants Podcast, the only podcast that matters.

• [19:34] "I Wish I Could Sing" - Bongo Joe
