They Might Be Giants,欧美乐队组合,They Might Be Giants 凭借专辑《Here Come The 123s》获得第51届格莱美最佳儿童音乐剧专辑奖。   They Might Be Giants由2个大男孩组成,曲风有些实验的味道,怪诞,阳光,活泼,总是围绕着他们,曲风也是非常轻快,再加上怪怪的实验让歌显的十分有趣,听着就让人心情舒畅,再加上最近暴雨连连,他们的歌也好象告诉你,生活是不容易的,但也要勇敢的冲出去。   结合了诡异离奇幽默感和从纽约后朋克地下音乐中学到的先锋美学,“他们可能成为巨人”是80年代末90年代初期另类乐队中最不可能的成功故事。虽然约翰·弗兰斯伯格(John Flansburgh)和约翰·林内尔(John Linnell)的二人组合没有任何特色,但是在音乐上却有着不可思议的幽默感。正因为如此他们才得到了一大批校园中的追随者。自从1990年转签Elektra公司,得到MTV的支持之后,“他们可能成为巨人”成为了最流行的另类流行乐队之一。不过他们的辉煌只到90年代中期后垃圾摇滚乐队成功地主宰了MTV和电台为止。 弗兰斯伯格和林内尔从小就一起生活在马萨诸塞州的林肯市,在高中的时候,他们开始合作写歌,不过并没有成立乐队。林内尔在大学台勺时候参加过一个乐队,不过当他们再次重逢于纽约时,他们决定重新开始音乐生涯。“他们可能成为巨人”这个队名来自于乔治斯科特的一部电影,不久他们就成为曼哈顿地下乐队的代表。虽然如此,他们还是很难得到唱片合约,于是他们决定通过声讯电话来推广自己的歌曲,幸运的是,一家另类音乐厂牌Bar/None终于注意到了他们,为他们在1986年发行了首张同名专辑。而两年后的《林肯》登上了排行榜的第89位,从而引起了主流唱片界的注意,他们也决定与Elektra公司签约而求得更好的发展。 加入Elektra公司后发行的第一张唱片是《洪水》,这张唱片在商业上大获成功,达到金唱片的销量,并有数首热门单曲如《你心灵的囚笼》和《伊斯坦布尔(而不是康斯坦丁堡)》等。两年后发行的《阿波罗18》并不像上一张专辑那么出色,但是它仍然巩固了乐队的乐迷群。在为该专辑而进行的巡回演出中,他们首次决定组成一个完整的乐队出现,这一转变发生在垃圾摇滚兴起之时,虽然“他们可能成为巨人”终于成为了一个完整的乐队,但是他们失去了MTV、主流摇滚电台和校园电台的关注,他们在1994年秋季发行的专辑《约翰 亨利》大量使用了小号和长号作为伴奏,这个音乐风格上的创新并没有引起太多人的注意,以致他们失去了大部分的歌迷。而1996年的《工厂陈列室》则完全被媒体所忽略,销量的不佳导致了乐队在1997年正式与Elektra公司解约。之后,他们继续推出了一些专辑,如1998年的现场专辑《车胎严重损坏》、2001年的《水貂车》以及2002年的首张儿童专辑《不I》,不过“他们可能成为巨人”再也不复以往的辉煌景象了。   They Might Be Giants (often abbreviated as TMBG) is an American alternative rock band formed in 1982 by John Flansburgh and John Linnell. During TMBG's early years, Flansburgh and Linnell frequently performed as a duo, often accompanied by a drum machine. In the early 1990s, TMBG expanded to include a backing band. The duo's current backing band consists of Marty Beller, Dan Miller, and Danny Weinkauf. The group is best known for an unconventional and experimental style of alternative music. Over their career, they have found success on the modern rock and college radio charts. They have also found success in children's music, and in theme music for several television programs and films.   TMBG have released 19 studio albums. Flood has been certified platinum and their children's music albums Here Come the ABCs, Here Come the 123s, and Here Comes Science have all been certified gold. The band has won two Grammy Awards, one in 2002 for their song "Boss of Me", which is most famous as the theme song of the television series Malcolm in the Middle. They won their second in 2009 for Here Come the 123s. The band has sold over 4 million records.   Linnell and Flansburgh first met as teenagers growing up in Lincoln, Massachusetts. They began writing songs together while attending Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School but did not form a band at that time. The two attended separate colleges after high school and Linnell joined The Mundanes, a new wave group from Rhode Island. The two reunited in 1981 after moving to Brooklyn (to the same apartment building on the same day) to continue their career.
