    I heard this song the last couple of days on Tony Fentons show on Today FM.
    It got a huge reaction. I have heard it before several times before but its excellent. The artist is unfortunately now dead. Let see what ye think.

    Here's the link:

    Was it "Monday nights on RTÉ2"?... Thought it was for the season of foreign films on Saturday nights - "Ciné.." whatever.

    Mmm, "Meet Joe Black" and "Finding Forrester" would be the big two, the former came four years before the ER episode.

    Yeah, it was.

    I remember it was showing lost while playing it. It was the type of thing that Hurley was listening to so it made me think of it.
