3. They Might Be Giants – Birdhouse In Your Soul

Found On: Flood (1990)


Not to put too fine a point on it, but this ode to a nightlight is TMBG’s best song. It's full of non-sequiters and SAT vocabulary words, but still manages to be affecting.

Right on! A great and under appreciated song.

I never heard it before this, and it blows pretty hard, shouldn't be on the list.
