"Challenge" Songs

I challenge you to write a clever intro to a set of Songs About Challenges. It's not as easy as it sounds. Case in point, this intro. Which is pretty lame. But the songs themselves are actually pretty rad! So...enjoy!  ~  JH

Songs About “Games” & “Thrones”, Vol. 1

ME: What is this "Game Of Thrones" thing everybody's talking about lately?

ALSO ME: I dunno. I think it's a TV show about naked Vikings or something.

ME: Maybe I should do a music post about it.

ALSO ME: But you've never watched a single episode of the show.

ME: So I'll just do a Songs About "Games" & "Thrones" post and call it a day.

And so it begins... Brace yourself, 'cuz Vol. 2 is coming tomorrow. Enjoy!  ~  JH
