The first TMBG song I heard was "Istanbul" which just seemed like a fun novelty song. The first time I heard them and thought, "thus is weird, unique, and I want to know more" was when someone on my HS debate team was listening to "Dead" -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPgXYPJC2uA

How I came to be a fan? I have no idea if this is an especially uncommon introduction, but in episode 3 of the sitcom "Raising Hope" it plays the song Istanbul a few times in it and I was very intrigued by it. I would go on to search for that song online and come across both it and Birdhouse, which I immediately fell in love with leading to me diving deeper and deeper into TMBG and becoming a fan.
