#College & Electric Youth - A Real Hero

[memoriesofthingspast]

🚗✨

[fallimentiquotidiani]

Real human being

And a real hero

Back against the wall and odds

With the strength of a will and a cause

Your pursuits are called outstanding

You're emotionally complex

Against the grain of dystopic claims

Not the thoughts your actions entertain

And you have proved to be

A real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being

A pilot on a cold, cold morn'

155 people on board

All safe and all rescued

From the slowly sinking ship

Water warmer than his head so cool

In that tight bind knew what to do

And you have proved to be

A real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being and a real hero

Real human being

Real human being

Real human being

Ellie & Joel song list

First, let me say that "She Is the Sunlight" by Trading Yesterday is one of my most beloved songs and nothing compares to it. It is so Joel to Ellie.

Joel's POV:

Trading Yesterday - Fall Into You Oh, my child How I have longed For you to come home To where you belong All of your life if you could just see All of my joy when you are here with me

The Paper Kites - Arms My heart's no good 'Cause it's split in two What can I give that is all for you These arms are all I have But I'll hold you like I do love you

Novo Amor - Anchor And I hear your ship is comin' in Your tears a sea for me to swim And I hear a storm is comin' in My dear, is it all we've ever been?

Yaeow - Everything to Me There's so much that i don't know and can't explain Like why the seasons turn and leaves are bound to change What's the meaning of existence It doesn't matter anyway 'Cause you mean everything to me You mean everything to me

Ellie's POV:

Red - Hymn For the Missing Thought you were beside me But I reached and you were gone Sometimes I hear you calling From some lost and distant shore I hear you crying softly for the way it was before

College ft. Electric Youth - A Real Hero Against the grain of dystopic claims Not the thoughts your actions entertain And you have proved to be A real human being and a real hero

Lists - Haven Lea Out of sight, though never far from our thoughts In my heart, you're on the shore With the waves at your feet, the wind in your hair And in my dreams, you're with the birds As they take to the skies and their song fills the air

Novo Amor - Carry You Let it lead your love away I never strayed Let it bury you away In all your blame, in all your pain I will carry you always

Both POVs:

Bear's Den - Above the Clouds of Pompeii You were a god in my eyes Above the clouds, above the skies You were a god in my eyes You were a god

The Hope Arsenal - Dreams That Were Always Meant to Be The forest in summertime And fires when it’s cold Spending time with you Never gets old

These are the most important songs that I connect to Ellie and Joel. Yes, I love these characters so much it physically pains me.

a real human being

[hplovecraftmuseum]

Lovecraft's last major original tale was THE HAUNTER of the DARK. It was written in response to a story by his youthful correspondent friend and fiction- writer hopeful, Robert Bloch. Bloch had shown the youthful audacity of killing off a fictional version of H. P. Lovecraft himself in his tale, THE SHAMBLER FROM THE STARS! Lovecraft decided to return the favor by murdering a fictional stand-in for Bloch. The Robert Bloch stand-in would be called 'Robert Harrison Blake'. Our hero would become a young artist and writer specializing in fanciful and supernatural subjects. In essence 'Blake' would return to Providence, RI. location of the Lovecraft character's death featured in Bloch's own story. In Lovecraft's 'retaliation tale' Bloch/Blake would rent lodgings in the very house the REAL H. P. Lovecraft himself was living in at the time! Lovecraft's actual Westward facing study window would become the model for the same window 'Blake' would be sitting at when he meets his death in the HAUNTER story. In the final scene the Robert Blake protagonist would link minds with a monstrous creature hiding out in the steeple of an abandoned church. That church was based on an actual Catholic church in the traditionally Italian section of Providence called, Federal Hill. The monster that links minds with Blake is apparently hoping to invade his body and use it for his own purposes. We are not told exactly what he/it had in mind once the invasion was completed, but we can be sure he wasn't coming to our world just to play tiddlywinks! The vision of a winged monster/ demon coming strait at the viewer in the same manner Blake must have witnessed the horror at the end is rather remarkably reflected in a painting by the noted writer and artist William Blake (Nov. 25, 1757 - August 12, 1827) Blake was known for his mystical and religious works and, THE RED DRAGON AND THE WOMAN CLOTHED WITH THE SUN, was one of his most famous paintings. Comparing the Blake origional with the 2 illustrations featured on the front and rear covers of the landmark publication 'H. P. L' certainly gives evidence to my contention that Lovecraft's tale was influenced by Blake's painting. Of course HPL chose to change Bloch's name to Blake, but he could easily have called him Robert Brown, Blackstone, Bains, Baker, etc. Robert Bloch, William Blake. Well, I've been accused of stretching things in interpretations of Lovecraft before? By the way, notice the lightning bolts rising up around the creature in the Blake origional below left. The same thing is featured in the ink work by illustrator, Herb Arnold, to its right. The ink rendering of the same final scene of Lovecraft's THE HAUNTER OF THE DARK was the creation of Robert Kline. (Bottom below) However, there was no moon featured in the night sky of Lovecraft's HAUNTER OF THE DARK tale as there is in Mr Kline's illustration. The winged, Haunter creature had to depend on a nearly lightless night sky before he could risk traveling across the distance from the steeple at Federal Hill to the residence of Blake to the East on College Hill. On that stormy night there is an electrical failure and the only light that can be provided to ward off the creature are the candles being held by those citizens and priests of Providence who somehow sense that something Evil is about to be exalted. If it were not for a sudden and fortuitous thunderbolt striking the creature (an avatar of Nyarlathotep!) In mid air the world as we know it might not be here right now! (Exhibit 379)

[elliespuns]

What songs do you associate with Joel and Ellie's relationship the most lyric-wise? I understand that there are so many songs to choose from lol, but the ones I can think of, especially from their respective POVs, are: "She is The Sunlight" by Trading Yesterday (Joel's POV), "The Story" from Brandi Carlile (Ellie's POV) and "Love You Blind" by BAILEN (a mix of both POVs depending on the verse). What about you?

First, let me say that "She Is the Sunlight" by Trading Yesterday is one of my most beloved songs. This is so Joel to Ellie. I worry I might not connect it to anything else from now on. Thank you for making me see this song this way.

Joel's POV:

Trading Yesterday - Fall Into You Oh, my child How I have longed For you to come home To where you belong All of your life if you could just see All of my joy when you are here with me

The Paper Kites - Arms My heart's no good 'Cause it's split in two What can I give that is all for you These arms are all I have But I'll hold you like I do love you

Red - Pieces Then I'll see your face I know I'm finally yours I find everything I thought I lost before You call my name I come to you in pieces So you can make me whole

Tyler Brown Williams - Never Stop My heart is yours You can have it all You showed me how Without looking down It's okay to fall

Ellie's POV:

Red - Hymn For the Missing Thought you were beside me But I reached and you were gone Sometimes I hear you calling From some lost and distant shore I hear you crying softly for the way it was before

College ft. Electric Youth - A Real Hero Against the grain of dystopic claims Not the thoughts your actions entertain And you have proved to be A real human being and a real hero

Lists - Haven Lea Out of sight, though never far from our thoughts. In my heart, you're on the shore With the waves at your feet, the wind in your hair And in my dreams, you're with the birds As they take to the skies and their song fills the air

Both POVs:

The Hope Arsenal - Dreams That Were Always Meant to Be The forest in summertime And fires when it's cold Spending time with you Never gets old

Okay, these are the most important songs that I connect to Ellie and Joel. I just love them so much it physically pains me (in a good way). Thank you for sharing your music, means a lot!
