In the Amazon Prime series Patriot, they played Train Song by Vashti Bunyan. It's from a collection of her mid-sixties singles cuts called Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind – Singles and Demos 1964 to 1967. She began her career in the mid-1960s and released a debut album, Just Another Diamond Day, in 1970. The album sold very few copies and Bunyan, discouraged, abandoned her musical career. By 2000, the album had acquired a cult following; it was re-released and Bunyan recorded more songs, beginning the second phase of her musical career after a gap of thirty years. :o She released two more albums, Lookaftering in 2005, and Heartleap in 2014. Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, founder members of the Rolling Stones. The song was released first by the singing duo Dick and Dee Dee in early 1965, who were a supporting act for the Rolling Stones when they first toured the U.S. in 1964, and then by Vashti Bunyan in May 1965 as her debut single. Jimmy Page played guitar on this song, during his session work of the sixties.  8)

Bunyan's recording went virtually unnoticed at the time, but became a rare collector's item after her resurgence in the 2000s. It was then reissued on the compilation Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind - Singles and Demos 1964 to 1967 (2007). A version of the song by the Rolling Stones was recorded on 13 February 1964, but released only on their 1975 album Metamorphosis. The Dick and Dee Dee version sounds like a 45 played at 33 1/3 RPM. The Rolling Stones version isn't very good either. The Vashti Bunyan version sounds better, but Train Song sounds better than all 3 of them.

While I was watching the show, they showed an Applebee's commercial a few times. They played part of Only Time by Enya on it. Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonáin, anglicised as Enya Patricia Brennan is an Irish singer and composer. She's also known for the song Orinoco Flow. Those were her 2 big hits in the U.S.
