    Default Gypsy Punk-type song at the beginning of "Leverage" Season 1 episode 10

    I was just watching the episode and the song in the opening scene is stuck in my head.

    It's got a Gogol Bordello/Flogging Molly sound to it... Male singer with a sort of gravelly voice.


    It's hard to make out the lyrics, as the character is humming and whatnot over it.


    Identifiable stuff...

    Music starts of instrumental, fast mandolin(I think) playing with basic beat and then people shout "HEY!" as the rest of the instruments kick in... electric guitar and bass as well as a more intricate drum beat. Also there are violins

    It's a very fast paced song(as is the case with most gypsy punk)

    "You thought you [...] from the mess that you made / All the promises broken, the best plans you(were?) made(laid?) So you travel in circles and that much is fine"

    "Sooner or later [...] ship comes to shore"

    "You just wanted more"

    "You find [...] nothing [...] left to begin"

    "And you can't go home again"

    You can watch the episode here... http://www.tnt.tv/dramavision.jsp?oid=46040
    I don't know if I am allowed to link to this but I figure being able to hear it would help alot.

    A. Berg: In the script, Chris Downey and I indicated our desire for a Pogues-slash-Flogging Molly type tune. Because purchasing source music (prerecorded songs from established artists) isn't in our budget, we left the task in the very capable hands of our talented composer Joe LoDuca. "Can't Go Home Again" is the song he created for us. At the moment, it's not available anywhere. Will let you know if/when that changes.

    By the way, Pogues and Flogging Molly play Irish punk.
