  • if you think about it, most of his songs are this depressing.

  • This song evens the score

  • @UniteZombers OK, really, joke is over used now.

  • This is literally my entire life in terms of relationships.

    Me zero.

    Big bad world one.

  • the story of my life. I always seem to come back here time and time again.

  • For me its Me 0 World 999'999'999 then I stubbed my toe this morning so I gess thats me 0 world 1'000'000'000 =(

  • Am I the only one who feels like this song could be about them? My score is pretty much nil right now, but I've always been that way. I was just wondering if anybody else is listening to this and thinking the same thing.

  • @sparta981 Same here dude. We all listen to this song because we feel like it's about us.

  • Is it possible that the last lyrics ends with "big bad world 'won'"?

  • @LiabilityWaver I think it's meant to be both one and won

  • I am probably the only one who thinks this but it seems this song is about count dracula.

  • @DaMaestroable That half makes sense actually

  • @DaMaestroable

    If so, then I guess Dracula's eating Crudites now! Hahahaha!

  • I have low self esteem, thumbs up please? :'(

  • Good Lord this is awesome.

  • ur lyrics are effed

    

  • Fuck life kthnx.

  • I was playing this song loud enough so i could hear it in my common bathroom. While I was in there, someone turned it off...

    Me - 0, big bad world- 1

  • This makes me feel... as if in a melancholy. Sad, yet... At peace with my decisions. That other people go through my issues. That I'm not alone- this doesn't help me but... This is really helping me out here. Work is just... A bit overwhelming.

  • sorry but i caused most of the views on this vid by spamming F5 after it was over sorry XD

  • This is a good damn song.

  • god this is so true! I'm such a puss for not asking her

  • @uncensored008 Yes, you're a giant dillweed now go slap yourself in the face and be spontanious.

  • @uncensored008 what if the best you can be just isnt good enough? isnt it better not to know?

  • I love this song, I guess its one of the few things I can relate to...

  • 149,999 view... Well played next viewer...

  • love this song! "what if the best that i can be just isn't good enough" I think everyone knows that feeling

  • I bet that if pizzaboy made this vid after portal came out, it would have contained a black forest chocolate cake.

  • Bush-Top

    Gore-Second

    Buchanan-Third

    Nader-Bottom....

    Why I took the time to figure that out is beyond me, but I LOVE this song.

  • hmmm am i the only person who likes this song that doesn't feel depressed O_o

  • Describes my life all the time. Fuck me.

  • ya the perfect song to support suicidal behavior like mine good bye assholes time for my daily dosing of dcon rat poison

  • @gamer1611 jesus calm down douche

  • @laughsquad007 I wish I could but now I might be immune to rat poison oh well I got my reverse blade katana bye bye now

  • I love this song. But sadly, it fits my day perfectly.

    Fuck everything.

  • I connect to this song so much. But this song seems more depressing than his others. His other songs like The Future Soon are like this but then in the end of the song the problems resolve. I found it really sad that this song just kind of ends with no resolution. Just ending with the line "Me 0 Big Bad World One" is just sad. ;_;

  • @TheQuiZNoKid You know I had that same feeling about this song when i first listened to it...i was waiting at the end for it to have a happy ending and it made me sad that there wasn't....kind of the same thing with his song Code Monkey but at least there is some hope lol....i watch too much Disney movies lol

  • I'm quit, I done.

  • @vinle7 I'm*

  • my favorite song of his! and he's got some good ones too, it just pretty much my life in a song, me 0, big bad world 1!

  • I. Love. This. Song.

    Love all your work, mang!  Keep up the fantastic songwriting.

  • @haemphyst Just so you know, the uploader didn't write/sing these, Jonathan Coulton did ;)

  • Like the pic at @1:24

  • thumbs up for the moment at 0:17

  • who is the girl at 0:18? she seems familliar to me like i saw her on TV or something

  • This is one of his best songs i think. and it comes with a great video. What else can i wish for after a shitty day at work

  • This song knows me better than myself

  • dude thank you so much for making this it helps allot been having a rough week this song helps

  • @MrAndrew201 I'm glad it helped :) but i'm not the one to be thanking. It's all Jonathan Coulton, I just put in the pictures. Not that I don't appreciate the comment tho

  • My life.

  • This song is my life... I know the worst thing you can EVER do, is give up... but i see no other choice, i just don't wanna fight... life is pointless, so sit back, and enjoy the ride!

  • When someone told me to listen to this song by Jonathan Coulton called Big Bad World One, I expected it to be about Mario.

    Still enjoyed it. =)

  • @TelvanniGuard Big Bad World 1-1

  • 0:53 doesnt matter whos its a lie

  • 1::06 is a lie?

  • 19 people lost to the Big Bad World.

  • where did you get that asn girl pic?

  • I like how it's realistic, but inspiring with it's fast-paced music at the same time, not too depressing.

  • @Replican815 listen to the acoustic version, it's more somber/depressing.

  • You think you've found a girl you really like, then you realize life is taking you seperate ways, and you gotta end it... again. And somehow your always the douchebag.

  • Cool he made a song about me.

  • sexy asian chick.. time to fap

  • This is why I like Jonathan so much. I can actually relate to his music. Sure, I like some Ozzy Osbourne or Bone N Thugs Harmony, but I can't relate to them or their music whatsoever. Those are people totally different than myself. But Jonathan on the other hand, he seems to have lived a similar life with similar experiences (and with seemingly, 90% of people who comment). Listening to his songs alone make me feel better, and like another person commented, it actually inspires me too.

  • aaaah, JoCo, you dont know me, and yet you just described my life.

  • This reminds me of my entire goddamn life.

  • meh

  • somehow this reminds me of when i came to school wearing a skirt (:

  • story of my fucking life...

  • @maraseea suck shit

  • @PaladinswordSaurfang right? what brought this on may i ask?

  • @maraseea derp?

  • love this song/ story of my life I'm so socially awkward.

  • Thumps up for cute kitties on the internet!!!

  • so, at the beginning of November, my girlfriend left me because she didn't want to ruin my 'dream' of going to school at this place. Which was lame, but...it was sweet of her, you know? Today I found out that I'm not accepted for the scholarship I was going there on. So...here I am. Wallowing in irony and listening to Big Bad World One.

  • @Alokue Well at least you picked a decent song to set the mood it's helped me many times before

  • iQuit.

  • I lol at 2:34

  • Wtf. I created the iQuit image that is this video's thumbnail.

    Cool :D

  • @spazdor Pics or it didn't happen

  • ***LOVE***

  • i hate when videos just use pictures or clips of what the artist literally is saying.

  • @kbat82 I think it gives the opportunity for some funny visual puns, but hey, difference of opinions and such.

  • @kbat82 Would you prefer completely irrelevant ones?

    Important thing in these things is the song/lyrics tbh

  • U like pizza?

  • The pictures of the girl at the beginning should have been a black screen with the text "insert picture of someone here." But then again, I don't think I need to be told to do that to do that...

  • Story of my non-existent love life. Sad that somebody has a song about it already.

  • 0:25 zomg cute kitty kat :O :D

  • This has a radiohead sound to it. Love it!

  • search iquit on bing images for the iquit picture

  • I just got dumped, feel like a looser in public, and my friends are just being douchebags. But I enjoyed this song. This song is my new best friend.

  • iQuit picture its gonna be my new desktop , if i find it lol

  • Oddly enough, every picture translates perfectly...

  • Eve the URL is shocked how good this song is D8

  • Best.

  • @Angus666Young Story of my life.

  • 1;25

    

  • GORDON B. HINKLEY!!

  • i almost lost it at "IQuit".

  • This, along with Code Monkey, is a song every sentient life form in the galaxy can relate to.

  • 0 to 1 isnt that bad of a game

  • @Grahamhakala its either one or won. Game could be over by now.

  • @Grahamhakala i think its actually 3 to 0 lol :)

  • this song tells me that i always have people, which is nice

  • haha, the iQuit iPod thing made me rofl.

  • The song is great, but it sucks that I feel the way like the guy in the song. Goddamnit.

  • I could listen to this forever

  • wow he's singing about me.. :D

  • This song makes me sad.

  • i can relate

  • Geek or not, JoCo rox bigtime!

  • the cake is a lie

  • Awesome!

  • I cant care more if im a geek since i get to listen music like this. Go JoCo!!!11!!!one!!11!

  • The cake is a lie!

  • did the cake tell you that =o

  • Did Steve tell you that?

  • This song seems familiar... Oh wait, it's my life!

  • Is it weird that the second time I listened to this song I started crying?

  • yes.

  • In my defense, when I listened and then wrote that I had a fever of 102˚ and I had just told my girlfriend I wont be able to visit her because of it.

  • well i smile during this song, but i guess crying is ok too :D

  • This song... it hits too close to home.

  • indeed

  • caucasian

  • Coulton's music is amazing. And his lyrics are often unique.

    I hope to see him extremely famous someday. He shall do it.

  • I personally think he's in the perfect situation when it comes to fame at the moment. He's well known among geeks, but he's not so famous that he's recognized in the street. I wouldn't want to be any more famous than that myself.

  • well not if the people who are going to reconise you are geeks :-P

    (see i can make that joke because we're all fans of JC and thus all geeks :-P)

  • i dnno if im a full on geek but im definatley in touch with my geek side ;)

  • I know what you mean man. im definitely not even close to a 50/50 geek, but on some innate level i can connect with his songs.

  • he says "standing arOOnd"? so he's canadian?

  • nope. he's from new york

  • He says Scanning the Room , not standing around.

  • ah. i been watching too much trailer park boys...

  • lolol fuck you we dont all sound like that

  • haha, no but ricky and julian do.

  • On the show, yes, Ricky and Julian say "aboot" and such. Ricky was born in the same city I was in, Moncton, New Brunswick, and I assure you, none of the people from Moncton I know say "aboot". As well, Julian is from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, less than half an hour from where I live, and nobody here says "Aboot" either. It's an exaggerated accent that almost nobody has. I think it's from Saskatchewan/Manitoba. Regardless. Most of us say "ub-out"

  • On that note, I was wrong. they do say aboot in Saskatchewan, but it's mostly out in Newfoundland that you'll hear it.

  • Orly? I'm from Newfoundland, and I'm ABOUT to get rather crossed.

  • @novatrigger777 Huh. The Newfoundlanders I know all say "aboot". Maybe it's just within certain regions?

  • Nah, that's just the hicks and maplenecks.

  • @Sykoze

    I'm from Moncton and I say aboot. Only when I'm joking though XD

  • in canso (nova scotia) they say aboot

  • @namenamethedrood As I said to novatrigger, maybe it's a regional thing.

  • Loving the Florida vote ballot thing for "I don't thin it's gonna turn out okay". XD

  • Everytime I listen to Jonatahn Coulton's music and realize that i'm the only one who has heard of it, I realize how unfair the world is.

    How can a lot of our talented indie artist remain indie and unheard by the mainstream while bullshit music by Jonas Bros, Hannah and Soulja boy are in circuklation in radio and MTV 24/7.

    Well I gues Mr. Coulton was right.

    Artistic pioneers 0

    Big bad world 1

    When will the next Nirvana come and reignite the love for alternative music to the masses.

  • I used to feel the same way, but it's sort of nicer when your favorite bands are unheard of. Then you don't have to worry about idiots listening to it just because it's there and they heard it was cool, and not because they actually understand or enjoy it.

  • he should have much more attention :O
