Badfinger, perfect end for Breaking Bad

I'm not a big Badfinger fan but it seems like that song was made for the final scene in Breaking Bad. I don't know the name but the lyrics were right on the money. Kudos to whom ever picked that song to end my favorite show in recent memory. Plus judging by the lyrics, the use of the song El Paso was also a perfect choice. By the way, that's how you end a TV series, no loose ends to try and figure out, no fade to black. I'll miss that show.

The finale had more than 10 million viewers. I believe the Sopranos had 13 Million.
The first thing I did after the show was You Tube the song. One things for sure, Bryan Cranston nailed that role!

Never saw the show but can't argue with anyone using that song when appropriate. It's a true lesser known classic!

Good choice. Love Badfinger. But a better choice
IMO would have been You Get What You Deserve by the other power poppers Big Star.

I thought it was a pretty good choice. I thought the earlier use of Crystal Blue Persuasion was more right-on-the-button.

"Guess I got what I deserved
Kept you waiting there too long, my love
All that time without a word
Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget or I'd regret
The special love I had for you, my baby blue"

Walter White loved his "baby".....blue meth that is.
