Unless we're listening to two different tunes, I'd say the track listing is entirely correct. I recognised the intro instantly and got it in 2" :) Are you more used to hearing the abrupt drum intro ?

I am beginning to think we may well have two different tunes. I am used to the version Steve posted in his spoiler which is no drums and just the normal intro!! :?: :)

EDIT: I have just listened to it again and it has been changed since I, and presumably Steve, heard it early this morning. I would have got it instantly as it now is but they had posted the wrong intro before as I am Sure Steve will agree? :-D

70's (2 Seconds) one of the Falcon favourites, Ray Jackson got £15 for his Mandolin work;

Regards Neil
Who is Ray Jackson?, (other than a mandolin player of course! :-D ) They describe it as MM by the original artist and it simply isn't!! How did you get it in 2 secs?
Please clarify as both Steve and I found it to be questionable!! :-D
Try it again now, maybe it was a glitch which has been corrected, wouldn't be unusual. The song is pretty much what I am familiar with in the intro. Ray Jackson is a member of Lindisfarne.

I would have got it in eight seconds. Definitely a different version to the previously posted one. Would have turned it off after the eight seconds too. Awful noise. He can do better.

The Pickled Egg Quiz needs the odd bit of splattering with some little quiz questions as well as the popular heardles.

Try this grade Easy

Headline
Falcon Hat trick but late winner for Heardle
Newcastle Falcon 3 Heardle 4
Back of the Net 3
60's (12 Seconds); 80's (2 Seconds); 90's (2 Seconds).
Conceded 4
Original...Never heard of them. .
70's...Never heard of them dreadful pap
00's...Heard of them, didnt recognise the "song", and a mainly vocal intro of little merit though not worthy of a PE Jukebox slot.
Alt 00's Its just not my scene man :-D Wouldn't recognise the artist if I tripped over him.

I have my 00's the other way round Steve...as per the links I usually regurgitate. I may be wrong but cant imagine you would get this one in 2 secs. That's the one I call Alt 00's ( although it was the original link on the thread before heardledecades00s started their game.)
