Before you complain this is too on the nose, this is the song that inspired this round and indirectly the whole league. The round title 'John Henry' is too good though; I didn't want to rename this round. so I gave myself a third song slot to share this with you. The artistic aspect of Cash playing a show for prisoners could also fit the 'limit pushing' theme
