The Curious Ear (2009): Falling Slowly Is Banned

Every Saturday afternoon, Dublin teenagers crowd into the back room of Walton's music shop in Georges Street, Dublin to play the musical instruments, pianos, guitars, drums, concertinas. However, staff in the shop are so fed up listening to Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova’s Academy Award winning song Falling Slowly that they have banned customers from playing the song while trying out the instruments.  (First Broadcast 2009)
