I could see this 'Long and winding road' to be useful in discussing
conductivity.
One important point to make is that MOST of the 'motion' is NOT
directed along the wire. Most is random thermal shaking with slow,
steady net progress along the path. Drunkards Walk was a popular
analogy in the pre-PC days.
Superconductivity cries out for a suitable 'analogy' of the
transition from normal conductivity.
