How did I miss this!!! :lol:

I had planned to do a song for Eloise and Javier sung to the tune of My Heart Will Go On. The theme from Titanic.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

"Quand fera-t-il jour, camarade?"
Sung by the Havenites.

They advanced, the air stubborn, fists in their pockets
they smiled, thinking of Gavroche;
they were pushing through into the wind,
and still, they hoped that day would come,
come one day!

"When will it be day, comrade?"
I always hear this question,
that they asked each other, comrades,
while an old cruiser in the harbour
yelled at full blast:
You'll never get rid of us!

They were advancing with great difficulty, with great steps;
they were coming from the war in the woods;
they were hoping for sun and love,
they always supported each other,
tighten the ranks!

"When will it be day, comrade?"
I always hear this question,
that they asked each other, comrades,
while an old cruiser in the harbour
yelled at full blast:
You'll never get rid of us!

Whenever they return the autumn and the Great Struggles
when the night is longer and darker,
I remember one evening in Petrograd
where the old folks were trying to find each other in dark.
"Hey, guys!"

"When will it be day, comrade?"
I always hear this question,
that they asked each other, comrades,
while an old cruiser in the harbour
yelled at full blast:
Revolution!

Ideas for who sings parts of this:
-Shannon
-Tourville
-McQueen
-Theisman
-Javier
-Eloise

One of the "old cruiser in the harbor" scenes needs to be the retaking of Bolthole from SS (in Dark Fall, with the ship showing up under SS Cordelia Ransom and later using a more RoH name), and the other needs to be PNS Vaubon practicing the spinning broadside trick

(Just saying that, Anakin says spinning is a good trick, and Shannon agrees.)
