Friday Funk: Khal Drogo Edition



My Sister-in-law Hannah does a regular Friday feature over at her place called
Friday Funk. I thought it might be fun to occasionally feature a song that makes me think of books or characters.






There's been quite a bit of buzz lately about a particular sexy barbarian - Khal Drogo. In honor of the Khal, today's Friday Funk is:

Sexy M.F. by Prince:
*THE AUDIO IS NSFW*

(Skip the first 1:40)

I'm not even going to bother with the lyrics - I think the refrain makes it pretty clear why this song makes me think of the Khal. (He is one sexy MF, isn't he? *nods head*MmmmmmHmmmmm)

For those of you who've been on another planet, this is Khal Drogo:


I'm not a fan of facial hair,but in his case I'll make an exception.
*rowr!*

Drogo and Danyeris are my favorite couple in Game of Thrones.  I mean, yeah, there's the obvious - ZOMG who wouldn't climb him like a tree - but theirs is a sweet love story.  I'm a sucker for the "Marriage of Convenience" trope, and this one is very good. I think I like their story best because they're newly in love, whereas all the other players in the story are scheming bastards; I mean besides John Snow, who actually is a bastard.  I started reading Danyeris' story in the book (only her parts) and I'm amazed at how much HBO sticks to the book.  Of course there's a ton of fan videos already; here's a nice one of the Khal and his Khaleesi:



You know where I'll be on Sunday night!
Have a great weekend!

  7. Ditto at climbing him like a tree...lol he's very sexy and I'm with you on their love story. It's been my favorite too. I love watching her grow into who she is and watching him get protective of her.
