It slaps, it's funny, it's sharp as hell, and there's a cowboy and a Sims character in it. What more could you want? It's Love Online, by Bungalow Jonathan.

I'm kind of bummed that this doesn't have more people talking about it. At first I didn't really like the song, then I thought it was just a sort of a modern version of the Talking Heads' "Once in a Lifetime", but now 45 minutes later the song is stuck in my head and kind of a banger.

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, "Well... how did I get here?"

I wish the music video was more dynamic than him just standing there with a microphone though.
