I'm looking for a rare/unreleased They Might Be Giants track. I had a much loved mp3 of the song that was lost in a HD/ipod crash. The song is named "No Answer" I found a few lame (but spirited) covers, but not the original dial-a-song bootleg. Any TMBG hoarders able to deliver on this one? The youtube cover simply doesn't do it for me.

My daughter loves the videos on "Here come the 123s" DVD, and I'd like to get her the "Here come the ABC's" DVD as well. I can easily find the ECD, but there are no descriptions on the tubes, on whether this is the equivalent of CD+DVD, or just a CD with some computer content. How and why is it different? (I could just order the two-disc set from Amazon.ca, but having to pay twice the US price just doesn't appeal to me.)

Does anybody know what guitar tone is used in certain TMBG and U2 songs? The most prevalent example is in the TMBG song "Ana Ng." During the chorus of the song, the guitar goes into this tremolo rapid-fire tone that maintains an even volume and has this nice rhythmic effect. It occurs at around 0:36 in the song. Any help would be appreciated.
