	They Might Be Giants - Why?
	• SKU: 16523866 • UPC: 020286220848 • Shipping: $1.95 • Description: Personnel: John Flansburgh (vocals, guitar); John Linnell (vocals, woodwinds, brass, keyboards); Dan Miller (guitar); Marty Beller (drums, percussion). Audio Mixer: Patrick Dillett. Recording information: Collyer Brothers Studio, Brooklyn; NYC; Terminus Recording, NYC; The Governor's Bluff Sullivan County; The Penalty Box, NYC. Illustrator: Alison Cowles. Why?, They Might Be Giants' first children's album in six years, was also their second full-length of 2015, arriving shortly after the wonderfully dark and weird Glean. Like that album, Why? doesn't shy away from danger and disaster (two of the possible consequences of discovering the answer to the title's question). On "Oh You Did," Robin Goldwasser sings a growing list of too-late warnings ("Don't drop eggs from the 14th story window -- oh, you did") with the weary patience only a mother could muster, while "I Made a Mess" embodies the heart-stopping panic of trying to fix the unfixable in its staccato verses. Elsewhere, precious collectibles get knocked to the ground ("Long White Beard") and a farmer suffers the consequences of building a farm in the middle of an elephant migration path ("Elephants," which is sung by bassist Danny Weinkauf). Given that this is a kids' album, Why?'s mood is notably lighter than Glean, and songs like "Omnicorn" are full of the sunny, jangly pop that defines TMBG's music for their smaller fans. At times, it feels like the band is trying too hard to be lighthearted: "I Just Want to Dance" and "Moles, Hounds, Bears, Bees and Hares" are cute, but not as distinctive as their best children's songs. Fortunately, Why? includes a couple of higher-concept songs that are unmistakably They Might Be Giants: "I Haven't Seen You in Forever" is a round that puts the truisms "absence makes the heart grow fonder" and "familiarity breeds contempt" into action with simple and complex results; "Thinking Machine" is weird and whispery, full of absurdism and tautologies that make it an enticing gateway to surrealist pop. Why? may be the band's first album for kids without an overtly educational theme since the instant classic No!, but its glimpses of familyhood are perhaps even more important in their own way. Some songs get into a kid's headspace perfectly: "Definition of Good" imagines ping-pong balls as eyes; "I Am Invisible" will remind listeners of all ages of trying to disappear from sight by walking on tiptoe and holding one's breath; and "So Crazy for Books" captures the euphoria of falling in love with reading. Other songs take a broader perspective: "And Mom and Kid" is a bear hug of a song that holds all the different combinations of kids, parents, and grandparents that make up a 21st century family in its embrace, while "Then the Kids Took Over" ends the album on a hopeful, eco-friendly note, with "that's when the future began" as its rallying cry. Why? isn't quite as brilliant as No!, but there's no question that it's another rewarding addition to their collection of...

The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because for many retailers it was the day they went from being in the red to being in the black when they became profitable for the year. It is also the official beginning of the holiday shopping season, and Black Friday has become known for some of the best bargains, discounts and deals of the entire year! Everyone has watched stampeding crowds on the local news or diehard bargain hunters camping out overnight so they can be among the first to grab limited black friday specials at their favorite local retailers... However, if you prefer doing your holiday discount shopping from the warm and cozy comfort of home, then Cyber Monday was designed with you in mind! Online retailers spotted the Black Friday frenzy sweeping across the country as it took over brick and mortar locations - rather than compete for your black friday attention, they concocted a day that is all their own and named it Cyber Monday! The Monday after Thanksgiving is when your favorite online stores slash prices and offer their very best prices to help usher in the online holiday shopping season! That means big savings for you whether you choose to brave the local crowds on Black Friday or avoid the madness by browsing online during Cyber Monday Sales! Not to worry - the Friday and Monday after Thanksgiving might get the most attention for discount holiday shopping, but if you procrastinate beyond that magical bargain hunting window it doesn't mean you will be completely left out... In fact, this promises to be an exceptionally consumer-friendly holiday shopping season with sales, coupons and discounts extending far beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday and allowing you to find the best prices on holiday gifts until the very last minute!
