An article in the IT on Gavin Friday makes reference (below) to Faithful Departed, which incidentally GF had to read the lyrics to at the Voodoo Lounge gig.

Ogden, takes on an added resonance when you consider its title and release date – Good Friday, April 22nd. The flag and the crucifix have had a sanctified place in Irish history and culture, and are inextricably linked with the military uniform Friday is wearing in the shot. If anything, the total image is like a visual representation of the best song to ever deal with Ireland’s various historical and religious malaises (The Radiators’ Song of the Faithful Departed ).
