"For the Damaged Coda" is a song written and performed by American indie rock band Blonde Redhead. It was released on June 6, 2000 via Touch and Go Records as the eleventh and final track on their fifth studio album Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons.
The song, a continuation of "For the Damaged," is based on Frédéric Chopin's Nocturne in F minor, Op. 55, No. 1,[1] and gained renewed exposure on April 7, 2014 when it was used in Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind, an episode of the animated television series Rick and Morty, as "Evil Morty's Theme Song", the theme for the character "Evil Morty" Smith.[2] It has since become an internet meme.[3] It was also included in The Rick And Morty Soundtrack. The song was sampled in B.o.B.'s 2017 song "BoBiverse".
A video with album cover art was first uploaded to YouTube on February 5, 2008, and has over 49 million views as of October, 2023. The official upload from October 24, 2017 has nearly 2 million views.
