Commentary: I woke up this morning with "Because He Lives (Amen)" on my mind, my favorite method of selecting the R.B.D.S.O.T.D. Having done so, I'm considering inaugurating a policy of reserving all Sundays' R.B.D.S.O.T.D.—possibly exempting April, due to SKApril—for religious music. Sunday, after all, has been called "the day we cannot live without," due to the life-giving nature of the Eucharist. No decision has yet been made, but the idea is quite attractive.

The Heavy, "Short Change Hero" (theme from Strike Back) via iTunes (Mike Papa Whiskey)
Commentary: "Short Change Hero" short changes the listener. The song is 5:20 long, the first 1:24 of which is a pretentious, non-musical introduction; without that malarkey, at 3:56 in length, "Short Change Hero" would be ballpark ninety per cent (90%) better than it currently is.
Strike Back's cast boasts the following amusement: an Australian, Sullivan Stapleton, plays an American, First Sergeant Damian Scott, while an American, Philip Winchester, plays a Briton, Colour Sergeant Michael Stonebridge. (This oddity would be an even more amusing were Stapleton British, curse his bones!) Similarly, in the upcoming motion picture The Man from U.N.C.L.E., a Briton, Henry Cavill, plays an American, Napoleon Solo, while an American, Armie Hammer, plays a Russian, Illya Kuryakin. (This amusement is absent from the original television series, in which an American, Robert Vaughn, originated the role of the American secret agent, Napoleon Solo.)

"Because He Lives" was the first song that popped up on my Pandora channel Sunday as well.
