I really didn’t think I’d stumble upon my new favorite song while checking email tonite, but here it is. It’s a Jonathan Coulter song, performed by the AI character in the computer game Portal, voiced by Ellen McLain.
Oh my goodness. Guys at Valve, we salute you.
If you care about such things, you can read about the game), read about Jonathan, even buy the thing. Or just enjoy the surreal goodness that is “Still Alive”.
I have to agree with the goodness factor here. I first heard the song over the weekend when my kid was playing his freshly-opened ‘Portal’. It’s been haunting me ever since. Good call!
