Speaking of Great Songs; or, On the Cusp of the Final Four

By the way. North Carolina is still playing.

And, being as how there has been a recent run, on this blog, of references to great music and iconic musical forces, Harrogate really had no choice but to join the fray, although within the superadded context of March Madness as the Final Four draws night.

The Epic Song performed below, more than anything else, is about Comitatus. The importance of all things wingman. No theme could be more important for the Four #1-Seeded Teams poised to clash in San Antonio.

Which group of fellers will prove the most reliable to one another and by extension to their fans?

North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas, or Memphis? For verily it is written, there can only be one.

Within the context of this video, one could argue that Brian is singing about what happens to Angus at the 0:57 mark. Yes, his hat flies off! And none of his band members--knowing very well that Angus is preoccupied with the opening riff--retrieve it for him. Not even his brother comes to his aid, and brothers are arguably the most reliable of all wingmen. Comitatus, indeed.
