Been trying to make an end of the world music playlist. Would love some thoughts on how I'm doing or if there's any missing music!

"Always Look On Bright Side Of Life."

Seriously no one said REM??? Maybe im old. Fist song i thought of ha

Olivier Messiaen, Quatuor pour la fin du Temps (quartet for the end of time) was the first one I thought of. It was written in 1941 while the composer was interned in the German Stalag VIII-A POW camp. I'm fairly sure I've listened to it but I don't remember anything about what it was like. Its fame is partly from the circumstances of its composition and premiere.

And on a lighter(?) note, Tom Lehrer, So Long Mom.

Throw some Maiden on the list.

The end by the doors

Skeeter Davis “The End of the World” is a tonal shift from most of what you have there but after watching Girl Interrupted, it would be a must have on the list for me.

Karn Evil 9 - Emerson, Lake and Palmer

Eve of Destruction - Barry McGuire

Leftover Crack - Soon We'll Be Dead

Not sure if it quite matches the vibe you got there, but "Goodbye to a World" by Porter Robinson feels very much like an end of the world song to me.

Not as doom and gloom but I feel like "We'll Meet Again" could fit the theme

probably any Weyes Blood song but you need

It's not just me, it's everybody

Gustav Holst, Neptune (from The Planets). Really strikingly captures the sense of the outer edges of our solar system, even if it's not the whole world.
