“They Won’t Let Me Run” by John Vanderslice (unofficial music video by  Daniel Ferreira).

The pixel art in this music video isn’t the best at a few points, but I love the song. I’d never heard of the singer before (apparently, he’s kind of a big deal), so it was a nice surprise to stumble on this during my morning crawl of video game junk, even if its tone is dispirited.
