Rapture/End of The World Songs & Playlist

I had hoped to have a party tomorrow night to bring in the rapture, but family stuff got in the way.

What would your playlist consist of?

For starters, mine would have Death Cab's I'll Follow You Into The Dark...

Good luck, people! See you on the other side.

I'll just play Whipping Post over and over.

Oh, and the meltdown in Playing in the Band from 12/2/73 (Dick's Picks 14) has an apocalyptic quality to it.

 

House of Wax by Paul McCartney sounds pretty apocalyptic to me!

 

Gotta include Barry McGuire's Eve Of Destruction!

 

The End by the Doors was the first that came to my mind.

 

Blondie's Rapture anyone?

 

We Gotta Get Out Out of This Place - Animals
Rapture - Blondie
Judgment Day - Whitesnake
That's All for Everyone - Fleetwood Mac
One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer - John Lee Hooker [last call...]
The Grand Delusion - Bad Religion

 

We Gotta Get Out Of This Place - The Animals

 

WAR PIGS by Black Sabbath

 

Surprisingly good topic!!

 

If the end of the world and rapture come in the next few days, I won't have to worry about how to get grass to grow on those bare spots on my lawn. So I will play "Blessed Relief" from "The Grand Wazoo".
