  1. Music During Vietnam By: Emmanuel Alvarez

  2. The Doors – Unknown Soldier Lyrics Comparison In The Things They Carried, Tim O’ Brien kills a rival soldier he does not know. You can tell he feels guilty because he might’ve been innocent. • “Unborn living, living, dead Bullet strikes the helmet's head, And it's all over For the unknown soldier It's all over For the unknown soldier”

  3. The Doors – Strange Days Lyrics Comparison As Tim O’ Brien tries to live his natural life, he is haunted by his memories and the cruel things he did. It is not his intentions to remember, yet they come back and torture him. • “Strange days have found us Strange days have tracked us down They're going to destroy Our casual joys ”

  4. Queen – Under Pressure Lyrics Comparison In the book Tim seems to feel pressured into joining the war by his community. You can almost say he is peer pressured into doing something he doesn’t want to. • “Pressure pushing down on me, Pressing down on you no man ask for, Under pressure that burns a building down, Splits a family in two, Puts people on streets”

  5. U2 – Sunday Bloody Sunday Lyrics Comparison The lyrics connects to the thoughts of Tim because he believes that war is just plain wrong. It splits families apart, messes up a soldier’s mind, and ends the life of innocent people. • “And the battle's just begun There's many lost, but tell me who has won? The trenches dug within our hearts And mothers, children, brothers, sisters Torn apart.”

  6. Jimi Hendrix – Machine Gun Lyrics Comparison You can tell in the book that Tim begins to feel guilty about his whole situation and being in the war. In his head he starts to think that no man should die in that type of way, especially if they are human and not that different from eachother. • “MACHINE GUNTEARING MY BODY ALL APARTMACHINE GUNTEARING MY BODY ALL APARTEVIL MAN MAKE ME KILL YAEVIL MAN MAKE YOU KILL MEEVIL MAN MAKE ME KILL YOUEVEN THOUGH WE'RE ONLY FAMILIES APART”
