Favorite song about the end of the world?











  • You can nominate TWO songs for today's theme
  • Tomorrow any with multiple nominations will go into the playlist. Songs with 3+ nominations will guarantee a spot in the poll, while those with 2 will be first come first serve.
  • Feel free to suggest future topics
  • A YouTube playlist with all the poll songs will be posted in the topic. I highly recommend listening to any songs in the poll you don't already know


Note: being from a video game does not necessarily mean the song is about video games

I'm a simple man. I see Kero Kero Bonito, I second the nomination.

Jellyfish - Ignorance is Bliss gets my other vote.

Holy fucking shit. I literally only knew of that one video.

Regardless of how I or anyone else felt about the song, separating art from reality here, that's really freaking horrible. :(
