It's awesome.

I wouldn't go so far as to say it is the best song ever made, but it was rather enjoyable and witty.

 

[ZerOmega]

Alright, so the music wasn't the most dazzling and it seriously lacked the fireworks, but the lyrics, oh man.

By itself, the song wouldn't have made that far in my top game songs list, but after building the character for that particular voice, I was filled with emotions, both smile and tears (Being a manly man, ofcourse, I couldn't show either).

As I was saying, as itself, the song is not that great, but the original question was about ending song, not some ring tone.

 

[The Infinite]

I can't think of a person that i know that doesn't like it. Just the style of the song that fits so well with the game. Sure it wasn't musically amazing like the last guy said but really the way it was presented with the synthy voice and and the highly amusing lyrics really got me stuck to it.

 

[scnj]

It was pretty funny, but way overplayed.

 

[Squid1361]

I like it a lot, and am dismayed that it is played too much
Jonathan Coulton's other work is good too www.jonathancoulton.com

Very nice. My favorite verse below.

"Look at me still talking when there's science to do,
When I look out there it makes me GLaD I'm not you."

 

[phalanfy]

fucking annoying, every fag at my school thought it was the second coming of jesus and it got old real fast but they never let it go, granted the same could be said about the game.

 

[mythbuster343]

Very nice. My favorite verse below.

"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 experements to run. There is research to be done,
on the people who are still alive."

 

[Syntax Error]

I still like it. But then, I think that's because I also have the Japanese version, and that one cracks me up in different ways.

The vocaloid version? That also cracks me up in a different way (kinda gives me a nerdgasm while appealing to my inner weaboo at the same time).

Ok fisrt of all, I love that show and second,
"And believe me I am still alive!"
"I'm doing science and I'm still alive!"
"I'm feeling FANTASTIC and I'm still alive!"
"And when you're dying, I will be still alive!"
"And when you're dead, I will be still alive!"
"Still alive!"
"Still alive!"

 

[JokerGrin]

It's pretty good. Certainly made for a memorable ending.

 

[SmilingKitsune]

For a while I listened to it over and over again, so yeah I'm pretty fond of it.

 

[Inverse Skies]

I had no idea it was coming... that was probably the best bit. It was nice not to have it spoiled like some people did.

 

[InProgress]

It's a great song, but it became overshadowed with the legions of morons who didn't even play the game and started quoting everything from that game.

P.S: Why are there topics about Portal popping up every hour? Valve released something about Portal 2 or in the likes?

 

[Biek]

I didnt care about it untill I got pretty annoyed by all the fanboys adding it to their deviant arts of anime girls.

 

[CriticallyAcclaimed]

its only truly epic if you've just beaten Portal...it's like a reward for being amazing. But people are over using it though =(

 

[Calobi]

I'd have to say it was a triumph. Maybe even a huge success.

I cannot believe I got to that joke first.
