I have taken to calling Jonathan Coulton JoCo, like 80% of his fans.(I have also realized how easy it is to adjust text sizes in LJ posts.) I must link to the downloads page again. Seriously, I can listen to any of these for free. How is that not cool?

I like "Pull the String". It is about "a famous person with a terrible secret". The title is sort of a reference to that - pull the string, see where it leads. I wish someone would make a Youtube video for it, already. And I know it's just the Revanworship in me(The joke is that, if Revan were to die, s/he would be back in three days - it's not quite as bad as that), but I can't help thinking "Hmm... yeah..." I did not paste the chorus.

Everybody knows you’re onto something
And they all want in
They don’t know about the bad news
You keep underneath your skin
And they think you’ve got it all figured out
But there’s one thing you never talk about
It’s a long time gone but it never went away

Smile pretty, the camera loves you
That’s what they say
But there’s a part of you that wishes
They would all just go away
Cause there’s one small secret that’s bugging you
It would break their hearts if they only knew
There’s a world outside, you can feel it coming in

Call your lawyer, deny the rumors
But some lies are true
You can go there if you want to
When this ends is up to you
When your ten miles up and you’re coming down
You don’t feel a thing when you hit the ground
You just come apart and it’s like you never were

I like it. Hard to believe I actually have a favorite artist, at long last...

(Unrelated) Ooh, new episode of Avatar! *watches over Internet, presses hands to cheeks* Childish glee! I... that explains why there were no more dragons... Interesting. New episode on the eighteenth, I hear. Observe as I slap myself to avoid devolving into a fangirl state. I like this show, damn it.
