Which Describes How You're Feeling (They Might Be Giants) Easter Egg - TMBG Promote World Peace

About midway through the demo version of Which Describes How You're Feeling, you'll hear a backwards-sounding section. If you reverse it, you'll hear the following:

"THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS WANTED TO INCLUDE A VERSE ABOUT THE SUFFERING PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, BUT WE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHERE TO PUT IT INTO THE SONG."

The name of the band is also a reference to a little-known movie called "They Might Be Giants", about a judge who suffers from the delusion that he is Sherlock Holmes because his wife was murdered by a gangster and the killer walked on a technicality. Because of this, his family (parents and parents-in-law) attempt to have him declared mentally incompetent, and send a psychiatrist by the name of Watson to observe him. Eventually, however, she (yes, the psychiatrist is a woman!) understands what he's doing, and chooses to help him, even though at the end of the movie they both die (you don't see it, but you see a train running along railroad tracks, and the headlight advancing on their figures as they stand watching the tunnel (the headlight is filmed with their faces to the camera), and then, it fades to black with white text about the movie).
