The gym at work has taken to blasting out country music. I'm not sure how this is going to help you lose weight (except by vomiting) and I always like a bit of house or techo when I'm working out. I wonder if the bpm has something to do with it, the bpm for a regular house track is around 130 which is probably what your heart should be beating at - although after running for a few minutes mine is racing at jungle bpm! Anyways, as I was getting dressed they were playing 'The Devil went down to Georgia' and it occurred to me the story was blatantly lifted from somewhere else:
If you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul...
Ring any bells? Ingmar Bergman, a game of chess, the Seventh Seal, Scott Walker?
