Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds/Awesome

"Artilleryman: We'll build shops and hospitals and barracks right under their noses - right under their feet! Everything we need - banks, prisons and schools... We'll send scouting parties to collect books and stuff, and men like you'll teach the kids! Not poems and rubbish - science, so we can get everything working! We'll build villages and towns and... and... we'll play each other at cricket! Listen, maybe one day we'll capture a Fighting Machine, eh? Learn how to make 'em ourselves and then wallop! Our turn to do some wiping out! Whoosh with our Heat Ray - Whoosh! And them running and dying, beaten at their own game! Man on top again!"
 * The Artilleryman's plan to rebuild society underground- unrealistic sure, but the sheer enthusiasm and gusto in his voice gives this troper goosebumps:

"Moving swiftly through the waters Cannons blazing as she came Brought a mighty metal War-Lord Crashing down in sheets of flame Sensing victory was nearing
 * Thunderchild. Floating silently while the Tripods wade out to sea to block off escaping steamer ships. "Then with a deafening roar and whoosh of spray, it swung about and drove at full speed towards the waiting Martians."

Thinking fortune must have smiled

People started cheering

'Come on Thunder Child'

'Come on Thunder Child'

Becoming such a threat sees it promptly destroyed, as the steamers escape to sea."
