Did you ken...
...a baund called Narcoterror(!?!) have combined Paul Giovanni's arrangement of Gently Johnny with the Spiritualized® song Electric Mainline?
Supplementary question: Pagan dirges - is there anything better?
Answer: naw, dinnae be daft ya gowk.
No I didn't but will definitely check it out. Gently Johnny seems to be the most controversial choice when "I'm driving in my car". Maybe the Mainline collective could do a similar treatment to one of our Pictish howls? Folk is not a four letter word...
