    It's a shame that TMBG hasn't covered 700 songs like this. This is so lit.

      They probably have. Part of their concerts are doing covers yelled out by the audience

    I turned some coworkers onto this years ago, and they all said they liked this version better.
    Today my 15 yr old daughter decided that “Birdhouse In Your Soul” should be the morning drive song 🐥

      Hehe, my 22-month-old son says "MUSIC ON!" and I say "What do you want to listen to?" and he says "GIANTS!" and I say "Which song?" and he yells "DOCTA WORM!"

    Whenever TMBG covers another group's song, it's like Weird Al's "style parodies", as it shows their tremendous, often-overlooked skill as musicians.

    one of my favorites from them [despite them not even writing it] i feel compelled to listen to it even more now since a clip of this video sort of mini blew up on tiktok

    Thank you SO much for uploading this! I’d read that the original was deleted and assumed for some reason it was lost to time. Very foolish of me. Weirdly I’d seen the “official music video” version on their ParticleMen channel… but anyway. This was amazing to finally witness!! Hilarious from start to end, love to see Linnell smiling the whole time and them both just having a ball. You are a hero for saving this!
