They Might Be Giants kronolohiya

Ang Dial-A-Song: 20 Years of They Might Be Giants ay isang 2002 na compilation album sa pamamagitan ng They Might Be Giants na inisyu ng Rhino Records at pinagsama ng singer, songwriter, at gitarista na si John Flansburgh. Sa kabila ng pangalan nito, ang pagsasama ay hindi kasama ang mga track mula sa serbisyo ng "Dial-A-Song" ng banda. Sa halip ito ay isang antolohiya ng iba't ibang album at live na mga track mula sa kasaysayan ng banda, na sumasaklaw sa kanilang buong karera hanggang sa oras ng paglabas nito. Kasama dito ang mga track mula sa bawat album na nagsisimula sa 1986 na They Might Be Giants hanggang sa No!, ang kanilang unang mga bata ng album, na inilabas lamang ng tatlong buwan bago ang compilation na ito.

Ang unang disc ay pangunahing nakatuon sa mga single ng grupo at mas kilalang mga track ng album. Ang disc ng dalawa ay sumasalamin sa mas malabo na mga paborito ng mga tagahanga at live na pagbawas.
