Featured Highlight - "Saints magical season" Segment, 2006 Divisional Round
The same sequence celebrating the 2006 Saints' rebound that featured Crash and Burn had a second clip with a unique NFL Primetime track. Accompanying the "Saints magical season" segment was the song "Shrails." The portion of the clip with music is short, but Shrails tells you all you really need to know about it right away—you're not missing anything crucial by listening to an abbreviated portion. Shrails was written/performed by the familiar duo of Daniel Holter & Rex Carroll. If you don't recall those names, they were the same pair responsible for the New Primetime non-highlight track Tracking Heat. The heavy-metal instrumentation between both songs is quite similar, although Shrails is less melodic and features more shredding. Both Shrails and Tracking Heat are actually on the same album! It's a little weird that ESPN would use two different songs from the same album 15 years apart, but whatever…
Special thanks to GodzFire for identifying this one, too.
