Best Road Song of the Day (6/21)...The Serial Killer Anthem

Mrs. G. isn't up on much music produced past 1985, but several generous derfs made her music CDs for the trip. Mrs. G. feels like she is leaving bits of herself behind as she flies 75 down the highway singing some of these songs at the top of her lungs, while drive dancing.

This song, by Jonathan Coulton, is a little nutty and a lot funny. Who doesn't want a half pony/half monkey?

Rest assured Mrs. G. isn't using her road trip music as blog filler. She is only posting songs that made her scream YEAH after listening to them at least five times, songs that moved her.

His song "Code Monkey" is also amazingly catchy and sweet...and very apt, as a worker in tech myself. :)

My brother in law turned us on to Jonathan Colton. Love him! Perfect for a road trip. Do you have the song about the Zombies?

This is the song that introduced Jonathan Coulton to me. It was on a mix-CD I received in a CD swap. On first listen, I just loved the music (sometimes I love songs simply because of the music and I don't pay attention to the lyrics). I don't know how long it was before I actually paid attention to the lyrics. I think it went something along the lines of "WHAT did he just say?" And then starting the song over and just dissolving in giggles. The line "Isn't it enough to know I ruined a pony making a gift for you?" made me immediately buy his greatest hits CD and I have since accumulated several more and seen him in concert. Glad you enjoyed it! Yay music!
