Madhouse Mondays: Marty Robbins

*BREAKING BAD SPOILERS*

Last night the series finale of Breaking Bad aired. The episode was entitled, "Felina". It wasn't until the end that I put it together. Walt steals a car in New Hampshire to drive back to New Mexico in order to say goodbye to his loved ones, facing certain death. In the glovebox of the car he finds a Marty Robbins cassette and we see Walt singing along to "El Paso" which is a song about a man who is forced to leave his hometown under fire only to return (and face certain death) in order to see his lovely maiden, Felina, one last time. Easily one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time - here's Marty singing it on Grand Ole Opry Classic
