A sort of tangential addendum to the previous post: In his song 'The Promised Land', Bruce Springsteen sings of a 'rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert'. It's a wonderful line, pithily capturing the epic essence of the American West. That said, I would argue that even Bruce's brilliance as a lyricist would be hard pressed to bestow some sort of similar epic quality on the N7 through Offaly.
Anyway, all this is a very roundabout way of showcasing a rather good remix of the Boss's "I'm on Fire" which I recently heard on RnaG's 'An Taobh Tuathail' program. So for you, lucky readers, some sublime sounds. You can listen to it here.
