Back to the Eighties: Going Home


Original video located here. Accessed 16th September 2018

Song title: Going Home (Local Hero theme)

Artist: Mark Knopfler

Year: 1983

Why I like this song:

Well how else are you going to end a playlist of driving songs? A no-brainer true but you can’t argue with one of the greatest build ups ever crafted for a song – one that eventually gives way to an instantly recognisable saxophone. A victory theme if ever there was one, this is a great song to listen, as the title suggests, on a return journey. In addition, particular mention must go to the drums and the bass that conclude the song.
