Song of the Day: I’m Shipping Up To Boston by The Dropkick Murphys
I shared a screenshot from The Departed for today’s 4 Shots From 4 Films and now I’ve got this song stuck in my head. And now, it’ll be stuck in your head too! Even if this song hadn’t been used in The Departed, just the sound of it brings to mind low-level gangsters making big mistakes and causing a lot of damage. There are some songs that are just fight songs and this is one of them.
He lost his leg, y’know.

Song of the Day: East Bound and Down by Jerry Reed
Hey, it’s Hal Needham’s birthday. What other song could we go with?
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin’
A-we gonna do what they say can’t be done
We’ve got a long way to go, and a short time to get there
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ “Bandit” run
Keep your foot hard on the pedal
Son, never mind them brakes
Let it all hang out ’cause we got a run to make
The boys are thirsty in Atlanta
And there’s beer in Texarkana
And we’ll bring it back no matter what it takes
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin’
A-we gonna do what they say can’t be done
We’ve got a long way to go, and a short time to get there
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ “Bandit” run
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin’
A-we gonna do what they say can’t be done
We’ve got a long way to go, and a short time to get there
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ “Bandit” run
Ol’ Smokey’s got them ears on
He’s hot on your trail
And he aint gonna rest ’til you’re in jail
So you got to dodge ‘im and you got to duck ‘im
You got to keep that diesel truckin’
Just put that hammer down and give it hell
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin’
A-we gonna do what they say can’t be done
We’ve got a long way to go, and a short time to get there
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ “Bandit” run
