The official release date is today, but if you pre-ordered They Might Be Giants' new CD/DVD Here Comes Science from Amazon like you were supposed to, would already already be in your hot little hands. Of course, you could get the mp3s, but then you'd miss out on the videos--so cute.
Anyway, point is, TMBG and Disney really, really want to start indoctrinating your kids soon, so that they'll be softened up and ready when the Grand Scientist calls for some "volunteers" for a top secret study or whatever. So get crackin'.

Thanks for posting these. I might just have to pick up the DVD
sorry if this comment appears multiple times- I had a heck of a time posting my comment
Thanks for posting all these videos. My kids are loving watching these videos.
You can download the videos now on iTunes as well for about $15, and they're DRM-free.
That techie stuff said, it's a fantastic album. Both updated versions of "Why Does the Sun Shine" are, well, stellar.
(edit to above)
"you can download the videos *and songs together* now on iTunes..."
Brilliant! Sad thing is that while your comments were sarcastic many people actually think like that. Getting this for my girls for Christmas.
