The choice of song for today is inspired by a long weekend away and the explosion of articles (no pun intended) about a certain award show last night. For the past few days I have had limited access to the internet and coming back online when there are endless think pieces and discussions about a performance from the night before can be overwhelming. Throw in a super tense episode of Breaking Bad and I’m crying out for a song that is relaxing and uplifting (I just realized how cheesy that sounds).
Anyway, I decided to go for an old favorite and that’s Explosions in the Sky; a band who provided many tracks for the Friday Night Lights soundtrack (both TV and film). The song is “First Breath After Coma” and is the musical equivalent of a Coach Taylor speech or a trip to Tami Taylor’s office for some much needed guidance.
