Here Comes Science, by They Might Be Giants was nominated for a Grammy tonight. It is highly deserving of such an honor, because it's educational, it's catchy and after all these months, I still don't want to stab myself in the ear when we listen to it in the car. You can't say that about most kid-centric musical fare.
So I tweeted this:
"Congrats to @tmbg for the Grammy nod. My wee one astounds folks w/her knowledge of pachycephalosauri, chlorophyll & the circulatory system."
No big deal; I can tweet something in a few seconds, and I didn't expect them to see it, I mostly just wanted other people to and be aware of the achievement. I was surprised, then, to see this in my feed shortly after:
Sure, it was probably posted by someone they hired to handle their social media presence, but it still kinda made my night.
Yay! Congrats on the mention! That's pretty cool. I haven't heard any of their new stuff (well, I haven't heard most of their stuff). When I have my own wee one, I will have to get your TMBG input.
