Hello Rocktober people!
I have had the terrible idea that I’m going to try doing Flood by They Might Be Giants. Firstly, because I love the album. Secondly, because many of them are the sort of songs I like to write, only they’re much better, so maybe I can learn something. And mainly because it’ll be a challenge. Let’s see how far I get… Today I’ve done the first two tracks (the first one is very short).
Theme From Flood:
Birdhouse In Your Soul:
Not that familiar with this but that’s what makes Rocktober so fun! Nice job!
I have never listened seriously to this band. this will be an opportunity to catch up with them. this song is slick and your version is exquisite. I can hear why you feel kinship with them. So far I like your songs better, though.
Flood is one of my favourite albums of all time, very excited that you are doing this 
Great start!
I’ve never heard a Giants song I didn’t like. Your cover reminds me that I should listen to them more often. Well done!
Birdhouse is probably the only TMBG’s song that I know. This version is more intimate in sound than I remember in the original. Nice job!
Charming version of Birdhouse! Very fun.
This is one of the reasons I signed up - catching up with bands that I should really know better (have heard of TMBG but not sure I’ve properly listened). Rectified that this afternoon by going through the Flood album. Pretty flippin’ amazing stuff, so really looking forward to your takes.
Love the little modification on the intro song. And Birdhouse has loads of charm done this way. The multi-tracked vocals sound awesome!
