New Music / Video: "High Five" - They Might Be Giants

Well, if they hadn't pushed back the release 4 months, we'd all have been grooving to this for a month now, but They Might Be Giants have a video for "High Five," one of the songs off their upcoming CD/DVD Here Come the 123s. The animation is done by Divya Srinivasan, who did a bunch of videos on Here Come the ABCs, including "Go For G!" and "Alphabet Lost and Found." (See her videos and stills, including those from "Roy G. Biv," also off the upcoming album, here.)

As with "Alphabet," I don't think the Johns are taking the lead vocally on "High Five," which is the best disco song about the number five ever written. And, yes, it includes the phrase "down low, too slow."

You have go to Amazon to watch it, but it's worth 2:26 of your time. Go here.

(Hat tip to Amy for catching this.)

My kindergarten class had a kicking dance party to this song on Friday! We played it four times, many high fives were had, more than a few "too slows" as well. All in good fun though! Thanks for the assist on the Amy tip. That's still a point for you in hockey, I think.
