Who has already planned the song that they want to play at their funeral? Pedro Pascal does!
The "The Last Of Us" actor graced the First We Feast's famous "Hot Ones" show and tested his tenacity in eating perhaps the hottest chicken wings all over YouTube.
In Hot Ones, invited guests are to have a candid conversation with host and co-creator Sean Evans as they eat hot wings, which progressively go hotter at each level.
Visiting the famous set is Pascal, who has been hailed as the Internet's "Daddy," because of his charm and oozing sex appeal on "The Last of Us" and his red carpet appearances.
The 47-year-old actor revealed to the segment, among many other things, the ultimate song that he would want to be played at his funeral.
Amazingly, Pascal managed to make it to the 10th chicken wing, which is the last one. But it has to be dabbed on the Hot One's The Last Dab Apollo sauce.
But as he chomped on the last wing of the night, he also gushed at one of his favorite artists of all time, Prince.
Evans, thanks to a very in-depth research team who got a hold of the questions, asked Pascal why Prince's "Purple Rain" is the song he wants to be played at his funeral.
Right off the bat, Pascal declared that it was his favorite song.
"It's the most moving song. I don't know why, but it always emerges even before I actively started implementing it into my spiritual routine, essentially. I didn't go to church," he furthered. "I was raised by HBO, [Steven] Spielberg and Prince."
For Pascal, "Purple Rain" is the most "emotionally cathartic" and "most musically sophisticated song" that he could think of.
The "Mandalorian" actor even almost tearfully explained that if he would "casually" or "spontaneously" hear the song playing somewhere, he does not possess the "emotional space" to go there because of how moving and meaningful the song is for him.
Pascal's reverence for the song is called for. Rolling Stone ranked "Purple Rain" as No. 18 on the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time List. The song was also included in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.
