Neds (film)
Neds (2010) is a feature film directed by Peter Mullan, with dialogue in Scottish English and Glasgow patter. The film centres on John McGill (Conor McCarron), a teenager growing up in 1970s Glasgow. John's story follows his involvement with the city's youth culture and its impact on his development as a teenager.
The title is from a derogatory term applied in Scotland to hooligans, louts or petty criminals.
Plot
Neds is a dark coming-of-age film that follows the story of John McGill, a young boy growing up in 1970s Glasgow. While a brilliant student who excels in his studies at school, his studious nature causes conflicts with his working-class family and the wider, gang-riddled neighbourhood.
John's immediate family consists of his mother, a part-time hospital worker; his father, an abusive, alcoholic, tool-maker; and his older brother, Benny, leader of a neighbourhood gang called the Young Car-D. On a visit from New York, his Auntie Beth encourages John to leave Scotland when he is older to pursue opportunities there.
Ned (Pushing Daisies)
Ned is the protagonist from the 2007-2009 ABC television series Pushing Daisies. He is portrayed by Lee Pace.
Ned works as a pie maker at his restaurant The Pie Hole. He also has the ability to resurrect the dead with a single touch. When private investigator Emerson Cod (Chi McBride) accidentally discovers Ned's ability, the two enter in a partnership: in exchange for Ned using his ability to revive those who have died under suspicious circumstances, Emerson will split any reward money that he receives when the information discovered with the help of Ned's gift allows them to solve the crime.
Ability
Ned brings the dead back to life with a single touch, but there are two conditions. First, if he touches a dead person, plant or animal for a second time, it will die forever. Secondly, if the revived remains alive for more than sixty seconds, something or someone else in close proximity will die in its place. Generally, whatever dies is a rough equivalent to what has been revived: a person for a person, an animal for an animal, or a plant for a plant.

Night Run
Love me tender, love me true
Oooh baby what a song could do
We were sharp like needles in the dark, no question mark
My friend billy was one of a kind
Growin up and runnin wild
We could take a sunset and make it real
We stood together on the edge of a knife
[fools? ] to be friends, brothers for life
* and we have seen the night run, it's a thousand miles away
Yes we have seen the night run, it passed us by in just one day
Used to say well it's me and you
Oooh we could make dreams come true
And we put some magic in this night, oh feels so right
Came across your photograph
Everything was just a laugh
Where do you go when you reach the end
Into the night we would explode
With hand on my heart, rules of the road
* repeat twice
[instrumental]
Big city lights they fade then they go
[along with your sense of humor, no..]
Some people give up and lose the fight
We could prove it night after night after...
