Does anyone else think the band should guest star as the minstrels at the Red Wedding?

Totally.

I'm still not very fond of The National version. But I absolutely loved Bronn & Co singing, it sounded amazing.

I didn't recognize the lyrics of the song when the credits rolled, but I knew it had to be Rains of Castamere. May House Reyne RIP.

I cried both times the song appeared - in moments like this I actually root for the Lannisters. Seriously, when it is sung again at that memorable moment that will probably happen in season 3 it'll be Team Lannister FTW! You can't even get angry at them with such a song...

They should get Jerome Flynn to do a solo cover. Or maybe he can find his old partner Robson Green and duet it together.

I think I wouldn't like the solo as much as the version used in the episode. Loved how the soldiers sounded as a choir with Bronn on top.

To be honest this version is better http://www.youtube.c...h?v=Nj0ClrpqJhU (Christocakes).

I dont know what it is about this version, but I hate it, I really dont like the guys voice or the guitar

[Mooncat]

Meh to the song, but at least it's part of the show now enough that non-readers will realize its importance.

[aryja]

i had such mixed feelings when the song played with credits - nerdgasm, goosebumps and getting emotional because, you know. i usually don't like it when they bring songs from books to screen but this was amazing.

memorable

Loved the Bronn version.  Positively hated the version during the credits.  Not even Thoros could bring the "artist" back to life.

Well it's supposed to be slow and solemn

I think I'll be crying when they start singing this at a certain wedding...

I hate to say it, but I almost cried when I heard it.

And that's also because two of my favorite characters "lost", Stannis lost the battle and Tyrion lost... well you know.

I loved it.

I agree, Bronn & Co.'s rendition was great, but I really wasn't feeling the end credits at all. Sure his voice is good, but the American accent sounded really bad in this context.

[Hear Us Roar]

Great song. Went Tywin came through that door, it felt good

The end version was very haunting, a good sign of how it will be used later in the series and its importance.

Very haunting yet amazing at the same time.

This is what i pictured at the RW:
