[edit] Summary

"Way Down In The Hole" sung by Steve Earle.

[edit] Licensing

Fair use rationale for this sound clip:

  1. Its use in The Wire (TV series) adds significantly, since it is the theme song for the show's fifth season;
  2. Its length is only thirty seconds (the full length of the song is about four minutes, and the length of its use in the show's opening sequence is over a minute and a half);
  3. It does not infringe on the commercial value of the original music recording, since it has been reduced in quality by compression and been overlaid with sound effects from the opening sequence;
  4. It does not infringe on the commercial value of the television program it was recorded from, since it is presented without the accompanying video and includes no dialogue, acting, etc.;
