I'm kind of curious what songs people relate to the Pandemic Era. I have a few.

Bring Me the Horizon - Teardrops
A song about the emotional exhaustion of the last year, and the toll it has taken on everyone.

"And if you hear me, guess you know what it feels like to be alone" is one of my favorite lyrics from the past year with the way he sings it. There's alone. And there's pandemic alone. And it's a special lyric to feel like he's actually talking to a particular group of people who really understand everything he's saying behind it. Just cool to me.

The music video is great. And the end is everything I like about new BMTH. A ray of hope.

Starset - Trials
Forged in fire. With negativity running rampant and nowhere to run, it's sink or swim time.

Slaves - Patience Is The Virtue
Good God, the level of patience and perspective needed in the last year to stay optimistic has been other worldly. A reminder to stay focused and dialed in on what's important.

Asking Alexandria - Alone in a Room
For those that are going to come out of this stronger than they came in.

They're Coming to Take Me Away

And they're coming to take me away ha-haaa
They're coming to take me away ho-ho hee-hee ha-haaa
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away ha-haaa

Trouble Everyday - Frank Zappa and Tthe Mothers

Well I'm about to get UPSET
From watchin' my TV
Been checkin' out the news
Until my eyeballs fail to see
I mean they say that every day
Is just another rotten mess
And when it's gonna change, my friends
Is anybody's guess

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
Hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
That there's no way to delay
That trouble comin' every day
No way to delay
That trouble comin' every day

Wednesday I watched the riot...
I seen the cops out on the street
Watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff
And chokin' in the heat
Listened to reports
About the whisky passin' 'round
Seen the smoke & fire
And the market burnin' down
Watched while everybody
On his street would take a turn
To stomp and smash and bash and crash
And slash and bust and burn


And I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
Hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
That there's no way to delay
That trouble comin' every day
No way to delay
That trouble comin' every day

Well you can cool it,
You can heat it...
'Cause, baby, I don't need it...
Take your TV tube and eat it
'N all that phony stuff on sports
'N all THOSE unconfirmed reports
You know I watched that rotten box
Until my head began to hurt
From checkin' out the way
The newsmen say they get the dirt
Before the guys on channel so-and-so
And further they assert
That any show they'll interrupt
To bring you news if it comes up
They say that if the place blows up
They'll be the first to tell
Because the boys they got downtown
Are workin' hard and doin' swell,
And if anybody gets the news
Before it hits the street,
They say that no one blabs it faster
Their coverage can't be beat

And if another woman driver
Gets machine-gunned from her seat
They'll send some joker with a brownie
And you'll see it all complete

I was listening to that Zappa song just a couple of weeks ago and thought it was very apropo even today.
