Snow Patrol - The Lightning Strike (i): What If This Storm Ends?

I'm a sucker for songs that build and build only to come crashing down in incredible fashion. From the quiet piano at the beginning to the overwhelming storm of orchestral sound at the climax this is a true epic. This is one of my absolute favourites by Snow Patrol. They were supposed to be putting on a free show tonight in Vancouver that I wanted to go to but it was cancelled at the last minute due to rain and illness. So to anyone going to the actual show tonight I sure hope the band is healthy and ready to rock.

Some thoughts...

- I guess the LA Kings are for real and we shouldn't feel so bad about losing to them in round 1... but fuck it still does suck ass.

- Oklahoma City Thunder have been my team all season, especially with the Fisher acquisition at the deadline. They've looked great so far through games 1 and 2 as well and are my pick to face the Heat in the finals.

- Watched Happy Gilmore for the first time in quite a while last night. Damn it's a great fucking movie. Shooter McGavin -  "I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast". Happy Gilmore - "You eat pieces of shit for breakfast!". LMAO. And who could forget the fight with Bob Barker. Classic.
