Nancy Sinatra - Bang, Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down (Kill Bill)

There’s a kind of incidental paralell of imagery when it comes to CP77 and Quentin Tarantino’s ‘Kill Bill’.  Our moment with Dex in the No-Tell Motel particularly and our subsequent return to consciousness, such as it is, afterward.  There’s an ongoing need for ‘bloody vengeance’ recurring over and over.  And even given their meteoric rise into prodigious ability and resources over the game, V feels like an ongoing hard luck story to me.  

Though honestly, I get the idea that EVERYONE in Night City may be the same in that regard.  Maybe life is so cheap because on the average, it’s brutish and short anyway.  Why wouldn’t you live it without regard when your dystopia guarantees that on the average, unless you’re a 1%-er, you won’t see 40.  So you chrome up, live fast and hard, leave a pretty corpse and a drink named for you.  

I was going somewhere with this, I think.  Look.  It’s more an atmospheric noir-grindhouse bit of music.  Not all of these are going to be lyrically relevant.  Honestly, sometimes, it’s more just the emotional feel and pull of a bit of music that feels right.  And I think this is one of those.

BONUS: The Opening of Kill Bill this got used for. (WARNING: Extreme Violence)

hi hi hi I have a question o esteemed brocedes historian: I saw this official 2014 end of season montage thing on a chinese video platform (not sure if it's made by sky sports or f1 because both logos are on it), but I couldn't find it for the life of me... searched all kinds of keywords and there's nothing... I was wondering if you've come across it? it's the one that's a bit over 7 minutes and has a bang bang (my baby shot me down) brocedes moment. thanks!!

hello! that did sound vaguely familiar, but I'm nothing but a fraud and went to the ACTUAL brocedes historian of our times @fzxy40 who immediately knew

so yes, sky sports did make a 2014 brocedes fancam to My Baby Shot Me Down (Bang Bang) and got paid for it, instead of us -- making edits for free like idiots!!!

It's from this dailymotion video which is an 8 minute rundown of the 2014 season almost entirely in music video montages, including a daniel ricciardo redbull slay era

I was five and he was six We rode on horses made of sticks He wore black and I wore white He would always win the fight Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down Seasons came and changed the time When I grew up, I called him mine He would always laugh and say "Remember when we used to play?" Bang bang, I shot you down Bang bang, you hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, I used to shoot you down Music played and people sang Just for me the church bells rang Now he's gone, I don't know why And 'til this day, sometimes I cry He didn't even say goodbye He didn't take the time to lie Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down

i’m afraid you’d look at me differently, now that you know. - ( Vex ) @proelio-procusi​

        “Vex’ahila, DEAR,” Percy’s voice is soft as he speaks, his hand reaching out to come and rest against her cheek. He knows the feeling all too well, has grappled with it many times before, and he knows that what works best is reassurance and simply being there for the other. “We all change, but I will always see you for who you are: A wonderful woman with a kind heart, who could absolutely kick anyone’s ass, including my own. And I wouldn’t have it any other way,”
