So I asked my friend the doctor, known on this plane as David Rutsala, if you could use a song to describe the 2016 election what would it be? He asked his friends & this is what they came up with:
“Mama Weer All Crazee Now” – Slade
“Holiday in Cambodia” – Dead Kennedys
“She’s Lost Control” – Joy Division
“I Wanna Be Sedated” – The Ramones
“One of These Days” – Pink Floyd
“21st Century Schizoid Man” – King Crimson
“Tarkus” – Emerson, Lake and Palmer
“Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” – Monty Python
“Crazy Train” – Ozzy Osbourne
“Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Man” – Genesis
“Pigs” – Pink Floyd
“Stuck in the Middle with You” – Stealers Wheel
“Mad World” – Gary Jules (cover of Tears for Fears original)
“Knights of Cydonia” – Muse
“We Didn’t Start the Fire” – Billy Joel
“God’s Away on Business” – Tom Waits
“The Voice” – Ultravox
“Back Stabbers” – The O’Jays
“We don’t need this Fascist Groove Thang” – Heaven 17
It’s a good playlist, will sound alright under a tequila sunset after President Trump mistakenly nukes Islamorada, Fla.
