This is the musical moment that sums up 2020. A covid masked piano player continues to play The Bangles, "Eternal Flame," as stun grenades, flash bangs, screams, breaking glass, and sirens swirl around him.
The chaotic scene was recorded during a fierce anti-lockdown riot in Barcelona Spain. This follows the government's decision to declare a 6 month state of emergency in response to the pandemic, which includes tight restrictions on social gatherings and a curfew between 10pm and 6am. Hey! That sounds like Massachusetts!
So, "sing us a song, you're the piano man!" Check this out. The world is exploding behind him, but he plays on... Do you guys remember this song?
