Well TAD, before the witching hour I played Three Dog Night Till The World Ends but when the Rapture didn't happen pulled out XTC Travels In Nillion. It sounded like a good idea at the time.
Pulled out REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It(and I Feel Fine)'
Great Topic.
I wasn't going thematic Saturday night, but if I had been, I would have included
Metallica - "The Four Horsemen"
Sonic Youth - "Kill Yr. Idols" (coz of the repeated line "It's the End of the World")
Barry McGuire - "Eve of Destruction"
Elvis Costello - "Waiting for the End of the World"
Pat Travers - "(Boom Boom) Out Go The Lights"
The Surfaris - "Earthquake"
and probably all of Killing Joke's Revelations
