They Might Be Giants Starry Eyes Comments
  1. W.... O....

    I may be a moron (or seeing things), but I only just noticed that the video is reversed because people are walking backwards.

  2. C.... H....

    When they do covers, they do them right.

  3. d.... b....

    Fun version. A bit spastic maybe but, nobody does TMBG spastic like TMBG.

  4. m.... ....

    God this rocks so hard! TMBG's covers are always such absolute bops. The Johns can't go wrong imo

  5. C.... ....

    All they need is a decent rhythm section and this would be a good cover. Nice job on the vox and gtrs though.

  6. j.... ....

    Replay at 0.9 speed

  7. S.... E....

    Wow who knew . .

  8. A.... 1....

    Great version of this. The buildup to the end is an orgasm! "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" but better... maybe.

    The Records 'Starry Eyes' has become (some years ago) _THE_ Power Pop Song.
    Look for the cover version by _i Valium_

  9. A.... 1....

    One of these days YouTube will get their head out of their ass and fix buffering so I can enjoy this...

  10. J.... G....

    Absolutely superb!!

  11. c.... ....

    aww
    RIP John WIcks

  12. D.... J....

    I like the TMJ cover better

    D.... J....

    Thank you for actually pointing out that the TMJ cover exists. They never get credit for their brilliance.

  13. l.... ....

    Go Flansy Go!

  14. e.... ....

    Not too shabby, boys! See me after school!
    Best,
    Huw Gower

  15. P.... ....

    Watching videos like this fill me with overwhelming sonder

  16. M.... S....

    I've loved this song for almost 40 years. Great choice!

    M.... S....

    Me too! John and John probably have too:)

    M.... S....

    Midlife crisis here- revisiting my misspent youth-heard this song for the 1st time yesterday-Thought-it-was-BRAND-NEW!

  17. T.... C....

    Keep coming back to this one. Love it.

  18. B.... H....

    MY X GIRLFREND HAD A STARRY BROWN EYE BUT THAT WAS BEFORE I TORE IT INTO A BROWN HOLE IF U

    B.... H....

    KNOW WHAT IM SAYIN

    B.... H....

    your the brown eye idiot

    B.... H....

    Doubtful. You're not capable of having a girlfriend.

  19. m.... s....

    YESSSS!

  20. D.... a....

    Totally needs to be on another album.

  21. J.... B....

    Really like this one! Totally ready for an album!

  22. D.... B....

    @ 1:06 - "...wear & tear..."  ! :) @Susan DeLisle

  23. L.... C....

    Still rocking out to this song.
    This is one of my permanent favorites! <3

  24. D.... B....

    Like Beatles on sterioids...  but, Giants! ( Good 4 'thrash/twist' dancing! )

  25. O.... G....

    Oh my gosh WFMU and TMBG? That's an explosive combo! I love it!

  26. D.... B....

    <3!!!  ....

  27. K.... B....

    This video is great... something bothered me about it from the beginning, though: how did they get it so that the shadows don't move?!? It looks like hours go by, but they stay in exactly the same place.

    K.... B....

    +Ken B. Miller Not sure about the shadows although it's likely only 10 minutes or so of tape. However, at 2:40 they play the vid in reverse!

    K.... B....

    4 years later, you got me looking at the shadows!
    (they move a little, towards the camera and a little to the right. It's not much though.)

  28. D.... R....

    Le Masterpiece!  Flansy is the best!!!

  29. s.... ....

    please don't stop ever

  30. B.... A....

    Awesome cover song!

  31. A.... N....

    Wow! Just wow. These guys are the best!

  32. b.... w....

    The wife just said "this is the best TMBG song I've heard for ages".
    I didn't have the heart to tell her it was a cover :-(

    b.... w....

    Same with Istanbul (Not Constantinople)

    b.... w....

    Yeah. But a cover of a cover. I love TMBG, but Too Much Joy released a more creative, beautifully powerful, sarcastically American, and far angrier version in 1992.
    Best of all, the TMJ lyrics tell a story that is actually true.
    Tim Quirk actually wrote about it someplace. Ill try to find a link.
    This reply ia long because Too Much Joy deserves your attention and accolades. They rock(ed).

  33. f.... ....

    This is by far the best cover of any song ever in my opinion. :D

  34. T.... D....

    One of things I love most about you guys is that you constantly change your game. This is so different yet so you. Your YouTube channel is now the one I go to for inspiration and motivation when I'm required to toil for hours and hours at the computer. Thank you!

  35. m.... n....

    oooohh...surfy!  and Totally Rocking.

  36. L.... C....

    Holy carp!
    This is unbelievable!
    I'm totally floored by this rocking out you're doing!
    MOAR PLZ!!!!!

    L.... C....

    @Deuce Loosely Holy carp? :) don't you mean ... holy mackerel?

    L.... C....

    @Chris C. I could say "holy sh!t" but that would be a crappie thing to say. :P

  37. D.... E....

    The pool says "Yo"

    D.... E....

    Actually the pool says Y; the hot tub says o.














    I am so sorry i had to do that

    D.... E....

    Tell the pool I says hello

    D.... E....

    Actually, with that scale, it's much more likely that it's "Y."

    D.... E....

    I'm just glad I wasn't the only one who saw that.

  38. P.... ....

    Such a fun cover!

  39. F.... O....

    Totally dig it.  Great job, boys!  (And thank you for introducing me to the wonderful world of power pop.)

  40. J.... D....

    wow this is so different from anything theyve done b4!

    J.... D....

    Jane Doe
    cuz it's a cover

  41. J.... ....

    I love this song! I found out about it a couple years ago. Awesome that TMBG covered it.

  42. S.... ....

    Has anyone notice the quick cuts to a person?

    S.... ....

    @StealthMaster86 It wasn't quick cuts. It was just the staff walking past the camera.

  43. M.... S....

    This is simply excellent! :) How come TMBG are so good at everything they do, even the cover versions? :)

    M.... S....

    @Maria S Two Reasons I can think of.
    1. They tend to cover songs that have not been over covered and usually have not been heard of, so it doesn't feel like a cover.

    2. They take the song and make it their own with their particular style rather than trying to copy the style of the original performance.

  44. T.... 9....

    So upbeat! I love it! Thank you John and John and Dan and Danny and Marty
