Synesthesia: "Friday Night Lights"

“I was living in a devil town/ didn’t know it was a devil town,” sings Tony Lucca as he covers Daniel Johnston’s 1990 song, “Devil Town.” Johnston had no idea his “devil town” would be Dillon, Texas, the imaginary town profiled in “Friday Night Lights,” but his song, reprised in a huskier tone yet with a whimsical air by Lucca, is one of the standouts of the show.
