Big Bang experiment today in Switzerland. If it goes wrong, we're all apparantly doomed. So what better way amongst all the impending apocalyptical doom to have a few songs for the soundtrack?
REM - It's The End of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Muse - Apocolypse Please
Super Furry Animals - It's Not The End Of The World
any other suggestions...
Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven
Marilyn Manson - Last Day On Earth
Nick Cave - Hadron for love.
U2 - Last Night On Earth
Linkin Park - In The End
Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World (ok, David Bowie, but still)
Def Leppard - Armageddon It. :D
The Doors - The End
Muse - Time Is Running Out
Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun?
New dawn fades- Joy Division
Muse (again) - Supermassive Black Hole
Ash - End of the World
Smashing Pumpkins - Tales of A Scorched Earth
Louis Armstrong - What A Wonderful World (just for a bit of calmness after the apocalypse)
Not a song, but a slogan, but who's counting:
Woody Guthrie - This Machine Kills Fascists (along with everyone else)
Klaxons - Four Horsemen of 2012
Metallica - The Four Horsemen
Radiohead - Street Spirit/Fade Out
An apt finale given the original inspiration -
Boomtown Rats - (Someone Told Me) Nothing Happened Today
Ha ha, couldnt have put it better myself.Quote:

When you say "By all accounts", shouldn't you say whose accounts these are? Cos it seems to make a huge difference!
Green Day - Wake Me Up When September EndsQuote:

One of the scientists involved was in D:ream - never mind anything else, that should scare everyone. :DQuote:

BTW, I think the D:Ream chap's name is Cox, IIRC, he was on Matt Cooper's show the other day.
Anyway...
The Primitives - Crash
Thin White Rope - Ring
Funeral For A Friend - Into Oblivion
or for when the event horizon of the new black hole is haring it's way towards us,
The Flaming Lips - It Overtakes Me
But most definitely not this one. Can't decide whether this is the best or saddest thing I've ever heard. That's not true actually. :D
Ah Im did it previous, it'll give us time to get a bit of a playlist going before the main event. At least I get to go to New York on hols before it all happens.Quote:

If You Don't Like The Effects, Don't Produce The Cause - Funkadelic
Vanish In Our Sleep - Bootsy

Next week they're going to set the speed to 'kind of fast', and leave the protons bump into each other a little. You can't rush this science stuff, you know.
A few more for this lovely light-hearted thread...
Blow Up The Outside World - Soundgarden
Into the Void - Primal Scream
And a title for the collection...
Apocalypse Now! (That's What I Call Music)....

For all of you religious people wondering about your destiny when it comes... a rock trio...

Highway to Hell - AC/DC
Purgatory - Iron Maiden
I'm spending far too much time thinking about this. :)
Inded you are. Considering the 'anti-climax' of yesterday I think you'll have to add some Del Amitri to the soundtrack.
Del Amitri - Nothing Ever Happens perchance?Quote:

I had no idea they had so many Top 40 singles.
Nobody clicked on my link yet? Ah well, your loss...
:D
Europe - The Final Countdown
(We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To Earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown...
We're heading for Venus
And still we stand tall
'Cos maybe they've seen us
And welcome us all
With so many light years to go
And things to be found
I'm sure that well all miss her so.)
That's beautiful. Never sure what the lyrics were. Was the theme tune to Sports Stadium for manys a year too.Quote:
