313.Hold at All Costs
出自Iced Earth 2004年专辑<The Glorious Burden>.
2 hold at all costs 2.Juli 1863
人在阵地在!
紧接第一首,音乐没停。tim用及其深的感情唱了intro‘ brother against brother’--'just a mileor so away, is my dearest friend in this world, he wears the blue and ithe grey,and god it hurts me so. the last time we were together igrabbed the hand and i pledged,if i ever draw my sword on you, may thegood lord strike me dead',歌词太感人了,我真的被感动了。歌词取材于真实事件,南军将领 Lewis A.Armistead和北军军官 Winfield ScottHancock在大战以前建立了兄弟般的友谊,可他们却不得不在战场上拔刀相对。干涩的Thrashriff,tim却唱得缓慢--hold atall costs 是北军将领Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain说的,他的任务是带领他的团在RoundTops不惜一切代价守住北军侧翼。而这也正是南军要作的:趁夜急行军,向RoundTops进攻--3分26秒,管弦乐象急风暴雨一样猛彪--蜂拥而至的北军发起了一波又一波的冲击--4分46秒加唱‘Wave after wavetheir power must bewaning...’--Josua突然接到报告,子弹不足了。‘如果我的士兵精疲力竭了,那他们的也应该一样,上刺刀!’,他发出这样的命令。--合唱‘We'll know what we're made of...we must hold at allcosts’--戏剧的是,南军被这种视死如归的气势吓到了,纷纷投降。
=============================
个人3首中最喜欢这一首,特别是合唱部分,
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Up Against All Odds We Hold Our Line
For The Cause That We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Our Nation Needs Us, We’ll Stay The Course
For The Union We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
歌词很棒
Intro “Brother Against Brother”
Just A Mile Or So Away
Is My Dearest Friend In This World
He Wears the Blue And I The Grey
And God It Hurts Me So
The Last Time We Were Together
I Grabbed His Hand And I Pledged
If I Ever Draw My Sword On You
May The Good Lord Strike Me Dead
The Union Flank’s In Trouble
To The Round Top On The Double
A Bad Decision, Insubordination
Exposed Our Line In A Dangerous Way
The Burden Lies Upon Us
Surrender Is Not An Option
We Are The Flank And If We Break
The Union Crumbles, We Could Lose The War
Down Below’s The Carnage
The Rebel’s Charging Onward
Push The Slaughter Forward, The Peach Orchard
Through The Wheatfield And Devil’s Den
The Valor Of The Texans
And Alabama’s Best Men
They’re Unrelenting And Devastating
The Last Full Measure Of Devotion’s Clear
Chorus
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Up Against All Odds We Hold Our Line
For The Cause That We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Our Nation Needs Us, We’ll Stay The Course
For The Union We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
Wave after wave, They’re coming
Their Power Must Be Waning
We’re Out Of Ammo, We Can’t Fall Back, No!
A Desperate Measure, A Means To End
On Their Next Wave We Charge Them
There Is No Other Option
Disconcert Them, Force Submission
On My Command, Fix Bayonets!
Chorus
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Up Against All Odds We Hold Our Line
For The Cause That We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
When Our Nation Needs Us, We’ll Stay The Course
For The Union We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
The Burden Lies With Us
When Up Against All Odds We Hold Our Line
We Can’t Fail
For The Cause That We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs
We’ll Know What We’re Made Of
With Courage In Our Hearts
When Our Nation Needs Us, We’ll Stay The Course
We Won’t Fail
For The Union We So Love
We Must Hold At All Costs |
