As far as POVs go in the show/at this point in time of Clash of Kings, imo:

Good advice. I got spoiled because some jackass on a youtube interview with an actor commented "LOL, I wonder if they know that their character ***********"

Not the comments only, i watched an interview with Charles Dance in which he hints at some scenes in the season which weren't aired yet, and drops a huge spoiler from the upcoming seasons, so heads up, be careful with the thronecast interviews too
I'm not very good with music, but that does sound pretty awesome. The only problem is that you're being dwarfed by so many other insane covers of the opening song. My favorite being:
Could someone please remind me why the Black Watch went out into the wilderness in the first place? I've completely forgotten their purpose and am afraid to google due to potential spoilers.
I got some questions:^^ 1. What is this gif about: ?
2. What means "For the night is dark and full of terrors"? Shouldn't it just be "The night is dark and full of terrors"? Why is the for in this sentence? Doesn't make sense for me TT

Their rangers (who are their eyes and ears, reporting what they can north of the wall and warning them about due wildling attacks) kept disappearing, and those who returned tells stories of white walkers, who hasn't been around for thousands of years. When the Lord commander is attacked by the undead guy, he realizes that they know too little, and decide to head north to really find out whats going on. And thats pretty much where season 2 picks up.

"For" = "Because"; They believe in the lord of light "because the night is dark and full of terrors", if that makes more sense to you

The "for" is probably a remnant of an older phrase that got shortened, the sentence doesn´t really make sense anymore but they still say it, because they all know what it really means. If you say that the night is dark and full of terrors, then it´s just a sentence, the For mean that you talk about something specific. Even if the original saying isn´t complete anymore, everyone still know what you mean. It´s like saying "Break a leg", it´s nonsense but everyone knows it means "Good luck".
Possible original phrases: [Look to your sins] For the night is dark and full of terrors [Gather at the light] For the night is dark and full of terrors [Stay together] For the night is dark and full of terrors [Prepare because] Winter is coming We do not sow [We reap/take/plunder]

Well I can't check the episodes right now, but I believe the expression is without for. However, Melisandre can also use it in a sentence!
Such as: You should beware, king Renly, for the night is dark and full of terrors.
Thank you, everyone of you three answered very well and informative Somehow I didn't realize that the girl dancing is the arya actor, she looks way younger in the show oO
I thought she looked way way way way older now in Season 2. Well not way older but before she looked like she was 10 now she looks like she's actually a teenager.

Original phrase for that is moreso religious than anything else, kind of like an "in the name of God, amen" or an "inshallah". It's close to "God help us all" since it is basically an appeal for help or protection to R'hllor by invoking the existence of his theological adversary.
