My latest song obsession

[pegkerr]

I've been listening to this one over and over. It's really a rather wistfully sweet (and funny) love song. Considering that the singer is an evil homicidal genius.

Jonathan Coulton sings "Skullcrusher Mountain."

I love Jonathan's music (you may remember his other song I've talked about, "Code Monkey"). You can download this particular song for free from Jonathan's website here (although he does welcome paypal donations.)

See his other music available, some for free and some for a dollar a song, here.

Oh, and props to kijjohnson for introducing him to me.

I really love this song, and there's something really, really catchy about it. Not to mention it's strangely soothing--I was singing it to the cat the other day, and there's something about the usual "romantic" song chords set with these lyrics that make it so smooth.

And have you seen the shirts? With the pony lyric on it? \o/

*falls over laughing* These are great! I may have to get one of them.

I've been saving up for one of those Skullcrusher Mountain shirts for a while. Oh yes, it will be mine.

BTW, a helpful link for people who want to get a good taste of Jonathan Coulton is his collection on The Sixty One, if only because there's a nice little playlist all laid out for the listener.
