Life on Mars (Some More)

They're playing "Whiskey in the Jar" as the background music. I think Metallica's version is better, because Hetfield sounds a lot angrier than whoever is singing this version. Its the sort of song that is served well by an angry sounding singer.

While I was originally introduced to "Whiskey in the Jar" by Metallica, I prefer the Irish folk version the best. Yes... there is more anger and bitterness in the Metallica version, but the Irish folk has more... crazy irish accents.

This version must be some intermediate version... no crazy accents

Yeah, there are a lot of versions of that song. No, the original Irish folky are the best, though no one even knows they're there until... BOOM!
