Else - They Might Be Giants

weird one. It s like a mini-version of Their earlier "Fingertips" (for those who are unaware, this was a series of around twenty 10-15 second long vignettes on the earlier They Might Be Giants album "Apollo 18"); the song changes direction about seven times throughout the song, and, as might be expected, some parts are more successful than others - personally I prefer the later, more upbeat sections as opposed to the early ballad-like sections.

While the album lacks the more competent, ...
