William H. Bonney	Posted on Nov 27 2010, 08:50 AM
	When you think about William H. Bonney, you think about "Blaze of Glory" by Jon Bon Jovi!!! I wake up in the mornin' And I raise my weary head I got an old coat for a pillow And the earth was last night's bed I don't know where I'm goin' Only God knows where I've been I'm a devil on the run A six gun lover A candle in the wind, yeah You're brought into this world But they say you're born in sin Well at least they've given me something I didn't have to steal or have to win Well, they tell me that I'm wanted Yeah I'm a wanted man I'm colt in your stable I'm what Cain was to Able Mister catch me if you can I'm goin' down in a blaze of glory (Down) Take me now but know the truth I'm goin' down in a blaze of glory (Down) Lord I never drew first But I drew first blood I'm no one's son Call me young gun You ask about my conscience And I offer you my soul You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man Well I ask if I'll grow old You ask me if I known love And what it's like to sing songs in the rain? Well, I've seen love come I've seen it shot down I've seen it die in vain Shot down in a blaze of glory (Down) Take me now but know the truth But I'm going down in a blaze of glory (Down) Lord, I never drew first But I drew first blood I'm a devil's son Call me young gun Yeah Each night I go to bed I pray the Lord my soul to keep No, I ain't lookin' for forgiveness But before I'm six foot deep Lord, I got to ask a favor And I'll hope you'll understand 'Cause I've lived life to the fullest Let this boy die like a man Starin' down the bullet Let me make my final stand Shot down in a blaze of glory (Down) Take me now but know the truth I'm going down in a blaze of glory (Down) Lord, I never drew first But, I drew first blood I'm no one's son Call me young gun I'm the young gun Young gun, yea eee yea Young gun

	When I first read this cannons profiles the only thing I could think of was: I drink Alone by George Thorogood...infact i really just think any song by George Thorogood would do. Like 'Bad to the Bone', or even '1 Bourbon 1 Scotch, 1 Beer'. So here's to you Julian: I drink alone, yeah With nobody else I drink alone, yeah With nobody else You know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself Every morning just before breakfast I don't want no coffee or tea Just me and good buddy Wiser That's all I ever need 'Cause I drink alone, yeah With nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself The other night I laid sleeping And I woke from a terrible dream So I caught up my pal Jack Daniel's And his partner Jimmy Beam And we drank alone, yeah With nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself The other day I got invited to a party But I stayed home instead Just me and my pal Johnny Walker And his brothers Black and Red And we drank alone, yeah With nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself My whole family done give up on me And it makes me feel oh so bad The only one who will hang out with me Is my dear Old Grand-Dad And we drink alone, yeah With nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself

	TURN TO STONE Written by Ingrid Michaelson let's take a better look beyond a story book and learn our souls are all we own before we turn to stone let's go to sleep with clearer heads and hearts too big to fit out beds and maybe we won't feel so alone before we turn to stone and if you wait for someone else's hand you will surely fall down if you wait for someone else's hand you'll fall, you'll fall i know that i am nothing new my words might not seem much to you but brother how we must atone before we turn to stone

	When i had my MP3 on shuffle "Land Down Under" by Men at work came on, and I instantly got the idea for Taima...... I don't know why... Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said, "Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said, "I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said, "Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."

	Isabel is still not quite over the death of her husband, and this song describes her feelings perfectly, it is I can Still Feel You by Colin Ray It's that feeling that someone is standing behind you then I turn around and there's no one there. And it's the sensation that someone just whispered, yeah I still hear your voice but you're not really hear. Your memory's like a ghost, and my heart is its host. I can still feel you just as close a skin, every now and then. All by myself, in a crowded room, on my empty bed. There's a place you've touched with your love no one else gets to... I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel you. I can still feel you... you said you'd love me forever, then you said 'It's over" and left me without the missing link. Well I thought I'd forget you, but I guess I forgot to, and lately I've been too confused to think. When I reach for someone new, it's like I'm touching you. I can still feel you just as close a skin, every now and then. All by myself, in a crowded room, on my empty bed. There's a place you've touched with your love no one else gets to... I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel you. I can still feel you... In everything that moves, in everything I do... I can still feel you just as close a skin, every now and then. All by myself, in a crowded room, on my empty bed. There's a place you've touched with your love no one else gets to... I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel you. I can still feel you...

	Oh Jack here, has two in Character songs. One relating to now, one relating to his past..... BEHIND BLUE EYES by THE WHO No one knows what its like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes No one knows what its like To be hated To be fated To telling only lies But my dreams They arent as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance Thats never free No one knows what its like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams They arent as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance Thats never free When my fist clenches, crack it open Before I use it and lose my cool When I smile, tell me some bad news Before I laugh and act like a fool If I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat If I shiver, please give me a blanket Keep me warm, let me wear your coat No one knows what its like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes AND THE OTHER would be DEVIL'S ROAD by THE HEADSTONES I'll never understand how the devil picks his man Just seems to wind him up and let him go And all his people, driven here by evil They know the devil's on the road They're out to break their fellow man, Any god-damned way they can They can't wait to destroy the world They're going to roll into town Tear it up and burn it down With nothing more than a pirate's patience Intimidate and ridicule and all that awful shit they do It would take a hero's hero, to stand up and save them Now fear disguised as apathy And brutal smiles scream for a piece. The world owes them big, they're gonna take it. And if you get in their way, You're gonna die, you're gonna pay With torture, tears or intimidation. They're going to roll into town Tear it up and burn it down With Nothing more than a pirate's patience Intimidate and ridicule and all that awful shit they do It would surprise me if they don't die graceless They're out to break their fellow man Any god-damned way they can They can't wait to destroy the world They're going to roll into town Tear it up and burn it down With nothing more than a pirate's patience To intimidate and ridicule and all that awful shit they do It would take a hero's hero to stand up and save them I'll never understand how the devil picks his man Just seems to wind him up and let him go And all his people, driven here by evil They know the devil's on the road... yeppers, because he feels bitter about what happened to him.

	Some of the characters have in their signatures quotes from somewhere. Some of them have a main theme song, instrumental or withlyrics too. And each character might have, at a certain moment, another song reflecting better a certain mood/ state of spirit... so this is why I said "temporary" here. Besides, each character might find, at a certain moment, an appropriate song to dedicate to a lover, friend or enemy from a thread... Here is the place for all these songs, which might belong to any time and musical genre! As Allan's theme song is instrumental only, I'llstart translating the one where the quote in the signature was taken from - the song "Cantares" by Joan Manuel Serrat, based on the poem “Caminante” by Antonio Machado: Everything passes and everything remains, but we can only pass, pass making paths, paths over the sea. I never sought glory, nor to leave in man’s memory my song; I love the subtle worlds, weightless and delicate, like soap bubbles. I like to see them painted by sun and spots, fly under the blue sky, then tremble and burst… I never sought glory. Traveller, it’s your footprints that are the path, nothing more; Traveller, there is no path, the path is made by walking. By walking the path is made and looking back you see the trail you will never tread again. Traveller, there is no path, only the wake upon the sea… Some time ago in this place where today the forests a full of hawthorns you could hear the voice of a poet shout “Traveller, there is no path, the path is made by walking…” Blow by blow, verse by verse… The poet died far from home. A foreign country’s dust covered him. As they left they saw him crying. “Traveller, there is no path, the path is made by walking…” Blow by blow, verse by verse… When the finch cannot sing. When the poet is a pilgrim, when praying will do us no good. “Traveller, there is no path, the path is made by walking…” Blow by blow, verse by verse.
