We're back with another incredible piece from the Portal series, here's “Want You Gone“ totally reimagined in the style of Frank Sinatra's arrangement of “I've Got You Under my Skin“ (originally arranged by the great Nelson Riddle), and sung by the amazing singer/trumpet player Benny Benack III. It's a testament to great song writing when your lyrics and melody can function in an entirely different context like this, so huge thanks to Jonathan Coulton for this great piece of music! This song and more coming soon to our 3rd album “Backwards Compatible“ but in the mean time FULL ALBUMS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES and BANDCAMP!
