Epic Band of Brothers Fanmix Part 3: Bastogne and The Breaking Point
Bastogne
(sfx: Boots crunching on show)
Boadicea by Enya
Instrumental
~~~
Can I scrounge a bandage from your aid kit, Sir?
Haemoglobin by Placebo
How'd I ever end up here
Must be through some lack of kindness
And it seemed to dawn on me
Haemoglobin is the key
~~~
Ask him to dance, Doc.
My December by Linkin Park
This is my December
This is my snow covered home
This is my December
This is me alone
~~~
With all my heart.
Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley
Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
~~~
Why ain’t these men evacuated?
O Death by Ralph Stanley
Well I am death, none can excel
I'll open the door to heaven or hell
Whoa, death someone would pray
Could you wait to call me another day
The children prayed, the preacher preached
Time and mercy is out of your reach
I'll fix your feet til you can’t walk
I'll lock your jaw til you can’t talk
I'll close your eyes so you can't see
This very air, come and go with me
I'm death I come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold
~~~
Laid her hands on people and cured ‘em.
Blinding by Florence + the Machine
And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack
All around the world was waking, I never could go back
‘Cause all the walls of dreaming, they were torn right open
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken
~~~
Eugene, Let’s go!
Bones & Skin by Mirah
Don’t forget, you've got love
You've got bravery, you’ve got trust
You’ve got bodies, responsibilities
There’s still mountains, they're pushing up from underneath
You’ve got pain, caused plenty of
It’s not so strange but now you’ve had enough
Don’t forget your bones and skin
Or where you go, or where you’ve been
~~~
Nuts!
Storm by Lifehouse
Barely surviving has become my purpose
Because I'm so used to living underneath the surface
~~~
She’s finished with me.
Great Expectations by The Gaslight Anthem
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife.
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you.
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life.
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?
~~~
Okay, get up, not okay lie down, okay get up.
Run by Leona Lewis
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
~~~
Hey, how’d you do that?
Two Planets by Bat for Lashes
And life is so much dark and light
When day cannot exist without a night
And you are not separate from me
I am a heart that's full of life
And to be shared on this night
Feel my hands, feel my life
For the sun and the stars
Of my Mother and my sisters

The Breaking Point
Are you dug in?
Sleep Alone by Bat for Lashes
You know my darling I can't stand to sleep alone
No sweetheart in the dark to call my own
You’re my own, you’re my own, I can sing it, I can groan
But the darkness is a stranger and I'm lonely, lonely, lonely low
~~~
Where’s Dike? I probably heard that question a thousand times.
I Want to Hear What You Have To Say by The Subways
Another day is here and I am still alive
I say these words aloud, they speak from the inside
And every time I see you
You just walk away
~~~
We didn’t need to be fucking rescued by Patton, got that?
I’ll Be Seeing You by Bing Crosby
I'll be seeing you
in all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
all day through
~~~
Hey, be careful if he offers you a cigarette.
Mama by My Chemical Romance
Mama, we all go to Hell.
Mama, we all go to Hell.
It's really quite pleasant
Except for the smell,
Mama, we all go to Hell.
~~~
Me-me-me-medic!
Punch Drunk Grinning Soul by Flogging Molly
Could have been the comeback kid
The southpaw's legend glove to fill
No shadow boxer but the one
A true contender for the crown
Now this punch drunk grinning soul
In its corner begs 'no more.'
~~~
Muck and Penkala!
All that Remains by Sleep Station
I am listening
To all your voices,
I hear them crying,
Please don’t forget my name.
Fate does change,
Everyday is exactly the same.
Sifting through the remains,
I remove the pieces of you,
I remove the pieces of you
~~~
E Company would lead the attack. The problem was, at least to my estimation, E Company still did not have a leader.
Violet Hill by Coldplay
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow, white snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
~~~
You want to know if they’re true or not? The stories about me.
Let It Be by Carol Woods, Various Artists, Across the Universe Soundtrack
And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music,
Mother Mary comes to me,
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
