So it turns out Give Me Coffee or Give Me Death plays Queen instrumentals, and after listening way too hard to the coffee date scene, I gotta share how well the part of the song they used fits.
Crowley gets a fantastically dramatic entrance to the section that makes everyone feel things:
Mama, ooh
I don't wanna die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
Great for a snake having an existential crisis. Then we get the instrumental break, which builds until it drops off right in time to highlight the comedy of:
Until Aziraphale says:
I see a little silhouetto of a man
He sure did!
Thunderbolt and lightning very, very frightening me
Of course you are, bud.
(Galileo) Galileo
(Galileo) Galileo
Galileo Figaro
History jokes!
Spare him his life from this monstrosity 🥲
And there's a reason beyond the dialogue why this part feels so stressful, because it gets the back and forth of:
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go (Let him go!)
Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let him go!)
Go back and listen to the scene, it's a very subtle joke. 😄
