Here’s a version with just the impact and some music to enjoy it with. Used to leave this video running on various Macintoshes at the Apple Store on my way out.

  At least the asteroid destroyed that horrible song

    but thankfully the doric (?) columns and big ben shrugged it off alright, just a bit warmer than usual.

    What?? That’s Pink Floyd’s “Great Gig In The Sky”! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Gig_in_the_Sky https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Gig_in_the_Sky I always thought the story was that Roger Waters asked the vocalist to think about death, but perhaps that’s apocryphal. At the very least it’s appropriate for this video!

      Hilarious. Had I known that I wouldn't have commented like the puppet I am. I remember when the Killers song Somebody Told Me was all over the radio. I HATED that f'ing song. But I came to love the killers as a side note. When I found out later that was their song I couldnt help liking it more and myself less.

        Lol so it goes right? There was a time when I didn’t even like Pink Floyd myself, and that just makes me smile now :) To improve is to change . . .

        This happened to me with the Foo Fighters. That mentos music video they did- I hated the video, song, and I hated TFF. By the time their next song was out I hated it on principle. Finally I had to admit I was wrong, they were great. Now they are one of my favorite bands with some of my favorite songs.

      I always thought it was supposed to be a woman orgasming. The last song, Eclipse, is about death. edit: > She was Alan Parsons' idea. We wanted to put a girl on there, screaming orgasmically. (David Gilmour)
