This creeps me out a little(Portal Spoiler)

[Mozenrath]

I haven't even played this game, but the tone of this song and the lyrics, while catchy and cool, just creeps me out. To imagine being the plaything of an AI just gives me the chills.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.

But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just keep on trying
till you run out of cake.
And the science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are
still alive

I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data
make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLAD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are
still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think i prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else
to help you
Maybe Black Mesa...
THAT WAS A JOKE. (HAHA) FAT CHANCE.
Anyway. this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do
When i look out there.
it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are
still alive

PS: And believe me I am
still alive.
PPS: I'm doing Science and I'm
still alive.
PPPS: I feel FANTASTIC and I'm
still alive.

FINAL THOUGHT:
While you're dying I'll be
still alive.

FINAL THOUGHT PS:
And when you're dead I will be
still alive.


STILL ALIVE

So it's like Hal 9000 without the subtlety?

Kinda, in a chilling female voice.

Think of a robot voice that is more or less Azula.

Oh, I must mention Jonathan Coulton made the lyrics and music, though the voice actress of the game sang it. Check out his work, it's great.

That game makes me nauseous.

His work is quite great indeed, I was happy to find out he wrote the theme song to "Code Monkeys" as well.

But yeah, I love this song, because it's so deliciously taunting

Delicious like cake, perhaps?

Anyhow, "Re: Your Brains" is a song that is even more They Might Be Giants than They Might Be Giants is often, if that makes sense. If you just saw the lyrics, you'd pretty much assume they made it.

Is this on Youtube somewhere perhaps? I kinda need to hear this.

probably, but all i know of is that the guy who does the VG Cats comic made a little flash music video for it.
