"Particle Man" is a song by alternative rock band They Might Be Giants, released and published in 1990.[1] The song is the seventh track on the band's third album, Flood. It has become one of the band's most popular songs, despite never having been released as a single.[2] John Linnell and John Flansburgh performed the song, backed by a metronome, for their 1990 Flood promotional video.[3] Although it was released over a decade before the band began writing children's music, "Particle Man" is sometimes cited as a particularly youth-appropriate TMBG song, and a precursor to their first children's album, No!, which was not explicitly educational. The song is partially influenced by the theme of the 1967 Spider-Man TV series.[4][5]
They Might Be Giants' official YouTube account has the user name "ParticleMen", derived from the song title.[6]
