Sorry if this has already been discussed on this forum, but i'm kind of a new OK Go fan. I saw that they are on a CD called Hello Radio that comes out on Tuesday, and apperently it's a tribute CD to another band... but, who cares if it's a tribute because it's a new OK Go track, and that's all that matters! WOOO!!!

    Hey, Kbomb, yeah, it's a tribute to They Might Be Giants and the song is "Letterbox." There's actually an early recording of "Letterbox" by OK Go (from before the first album), and I wonder if it's gonna be this same one, maybe tweaked or remastered, or if it's a new recording.

    I was lucky enough to hear about this a couple months ago through work--we sell books & audiovisual stuff to school libraries and one of the guys in Acquisitions saw a description of it in one of the catalogs he gets (he's the AV buyer). He brought it over because he thought he remembered hearing I'm a TMBG fan. (I am, but it's actually a friend of mine in my dept. who is a bigger fan.) So he shows me this thing about it because it's about TMBG, and I read it and start spazzing about OK Go being on it. lol

    Anyway, I'm rambling and I'll shut up now.

    edit: Whoops, I was writing this as you replied, Denise.

    Umm....from the 30 second Amazon.com preview, it sounds distorted and slow and funky, like the Appendices version, but I can't tell if it's a new recording of the same style....truth be told, I haven't listened to the Appendices version in a while, haha. Not one of my favourites. tongue.gif

    Just listened and compared the same part; it sounds exactly the same.

    yeah, it's the damian/timory recording, not a new ok go version. still good though.
