If you watched Game of Thrones last night, you may have caught the brand new song ‘Jenny of Oldstones’ from Florence + The Machine.
The song played during the closing credits following Podrick Payne singing ‘Jenny’s Song’ by a fire, which is featured in George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Fire and Ice. Personally approached by the shows creators, Florence Welch agreed to write a longer version of the song and stated, ‘Celtic music has always been in my blood, so I felt like I could do something with it. The magic and ritual in Game of Thrones, not to mention the costumes, have always appealed to me. I am honored to be a part of the final season.”
Now that she’s made a musical cameo in GOT, we’d love to see Florence Welch make an on-screen cameo in the show! Until then, listen to the hauntingly beautiful ‘Jenny of Oldstones’ below.
