I couldn’t help being a little down today. Here is a taste of my post election playlist. Feel free to add to my song list in the comments section below.
Every Day is Like Sunday – Morrissey
End of the World as We Know It – REM
Until the End of the World – U2
London Calling – The Clash
Waiting for the End of the World – Elvis Costello
Doomsday Clock – Smashing Pumpkins
The End of the World – The Cure
I know it’s not the end of the world, but it certainly feels like it. I’m still processing the results. I used to think my views were pretty mainstream and there was a clear cut decision here. Obviously I was wrong.
I’ve stayed away from the news all day and will continue to do so for a while. Thank god for music and binging Netflix.
Even way up here people are sickened and disheartened 🤷🏻♀️

I’m more than a little down – I’m both disappointed and furious at our fellow Americans who willfully voted to return a cruel, repulsive, corrupt, narcissistic psychopath to the White House.
Great playlist though…

I was holding out hope…incredibly disappointing. I’m still in shock.
I do like the playlist though… even if it’s all doomsday.

I would, except I got caught up binge-watching “Better Call Saul” and it’s intense. For lighter dramedy, if you haven’t already seen it, I highly recommend “Loudermilk.” It’s the best bunch of misfits you’ll ever encounter…..

Better Call Saul… so good. That’s a good one. Loudermilk was a pleasant surprise. I like Ron Livingston. He really did a good job. I recommend The Diplomat and Lincoln Lawyer. Both were pretty good.

I’m not happy at all with the outcome of the election, it is what it is. I love your music choices. By the way definitely all music. I’ll be listening to and do often.

Coping by watching “Bridge on the River Kwai” today. “Insanity . . . insanity.”

Great movie. How to keep going when the whole world has gone insane. First time I’ve watched it. I misquoted, though. It’s supposed to be: “Madness . . . madness.”

I’m so sick of North Carolina! At least California was all blue! Yes, London is calling my name, or anywhere in Europe.
I just wanna get out of here!

I am right there with you! The comedian, Ryan Hamilton, has a funny bit about walking out into the “new normal” after Trump was elected in 2016. It’s pretty funny and spot on. Here’s the link if you want to check it out: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=753334828532664

It’s a tough one alright; we’re feeling it beyond your northern border, too.
Here’s my addition to your list. The drumming should get you going!

What the heck? That was so good! I wasn’t sure if there was going to be any vocals at first and to be honest, it still would have been great if it didn’t. Another new to me song. That’s definitely a keeper.

Whoa… Annie Lennox is so cool. I’ve never heard that one before. When she belts out We’re lost, all you can do is nod… Man, what a voice. Thanks for adding to the list.

I noticed the title of the album and thought it was so fitting. It definitely piqued my interest to hear the rest of the album. I’m going to look it up later!
