Hey, we’re just as worried as anyone about contracting the swine flu (well, maybe not as worried as the dude I saw wearing a medical mask on the subway yesterday). And we totally understand that this thing is serious and deadly. But what else can you do besides wash your hands until they’re red, accept the existence of the flu and listen to these songs?
“Pigs” by Pink Floyd. Reasoning: Self-explanatory.
“Bird Flu” by M.I.A. Reasoning: Oh, those were the days; the days when we were worried about bird diseases killing all of humanity.
“Piggies” by the Beatles. Reasoning: What, am I not going to include the Beatles on this list? Lists aren’t lists without the Beatles.
“War Pigs” by Black Sabbath. Reasoning: What better way to sum up the war the pigs have declared on us than a song that’s really about humans killing each other?
“Running Scared” by Roy Orbison. Reasoning: Pretty sure I gotta get my ass to the Montana wilderness and away from all of you people. Good luck out there…
Swine on you crazy diamond…
Awesome list. What about that Nine Inch Mail song Piggy?
I’d add these since they fit the general theme:
“Hotel Illness” The Black Crowes
“March of the PIgs” by NIN
“In the Land of the Pigs the Butcher is King” by Meatloaf
“Swine” ELvis Costello/Brodsky Quartet
“VIrus” Duran Duran
“Don’t Let Us Get Sick” Warren Zevon
“If You Never Got Sick” The Wallflowers
“Five Years” David Bowie
you know, pigs don’t have much to do anymore with virus…..
