Maybe I'm just the old guy -- never played Portal, never heard of Jonathan Coulton. My grandfather called Sinatra "Frankie Sinus" back in the 1940s. Nonetheless, I'm blown away by how this arranger and the 8-Bit Band channeled the Nelson Riddle swing and sound that made Sinatra so appealing. Clever work ! Satire, homage, clever re-interpretation all in one !!

Dude, I just realized... They drew attention to the companion cube during "Oh, did you think I meant you?", so GLaDOS said goodbye to the cube there. And in the end, after Chell was kicked out, the companion cube also bade his farewell, so to speak. I loved this :D

AAAAAAAAAA my day was made. This is a Frank Sinatra tribute I would recommend to my fellow Sinatra fans!!! Benny sang and trumpeted amazingly, Taylor's animation was *chef kiss* so damn cute and dynamic, the band was 100/10 as ever, the arrangement really brings me back to those Capitol albums (Nelson Riddle is the OG you're right, the shoutout to I've Got You Under My Skin is legendary...) and boy it brought a tear to my eye... I love the original but this version, with the strings and swing, knocked it out of the park :D Also I LOVE how the singer referenced the "How'd you get in my room?" from Sinatra at the Sands and the whole quip about Portal 3 was such a nice joke for Portal fans and of course, fits with the snarky stage persona of Frank Sinatra himself (but that test subject thing was so Glados.
