Music Monday – “I can’t sleep tonight/Everybody saying everything’s alright/Still I can’t close my eyes/I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights”

This is a very fitting song for the United Kingdom in a week that saw the population unexpectedly vote to leave the European Union via a very narrow margin in the “Brexit” referendum and then another upset as England is knocked out of the Euro Football Championships by Iceland of all places (cue jokes about England not being allowed in anything “Euro” this week!)

 

And yes, I recognize the irony of using a song by a Scottish band to capture all this…

“Why Does It Always Rain On Me?” – Travis

Game of Thrones’ Best Fight Scenes (Set to Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs”)

The final episode of season 6 airs tonight and after last week’s episode (which is the highest rated single episode of a TV show in history), I can’t wait!

This clip is a good warm-up for the series finale.  Warning: contains so much awesome…
