Songs about the apocalypse or that prominently mention "end of the world"

Besides r.e.m.

There's a thread called "songs predicting the end of the world" or something, and that's not the same question as this..

U2, "Until the End of the World"
Tom Waits, "The Earth Died Screaming"

wasn't there a mike mcgonigal thing about this? i remember because it seemed like a slim gaillard opportunity.

Music of the Apocalypse?

Morning Dew

That last link is closer to what I was looking for but it didn't come up..

Still, this is just regarding mentions and not necessarily songs about the end of times..

Like j.timberlake "until the end of time" is def not a song about the end of the world.

Fuck I just contradicted the thread question in my last post.. that's what I get for thinking of a question while working..

Pet Shop Boys - End of the World?

So just to clarify I should not have wrote "songs about" .. just "songs that mention apocalypse or end of the world/time"

Best song about this:

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the night sky they blast
Through the universe the engines whine
Could it be the end of man and time?
Back on earth the flame of life burns low
Everywhere is misery and woe
Pollution kills the air, the land and sea
Man prepares to meet his destiny

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the night sky so vast
Burning metal through the atmosphere
Earth remains in worry, hate and fear
With the hateful battles raging on
Rockets flying to the glowing sun
Through the empires of eternal void
Freedom from the final suicide

Freedom fighters sent out to the sun
Escape from brainwashed minds and pollution
Leave the earth to all it's sin and hate
Find another world where freedom waits

Past the stars in fields of ancient void
Through the shields of darkness where they find
Love upon a land a world unknown
Where the sons of freedom make their home
Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves
Leave them to their future in the grave
Make a home where love is there to stay
Peace and happiness in every day

sonic youth:

kill yr. idols
sonic death
it's the end of the world
and your confusion is sex

Kill Your Idols movie: anyone seen it? I did, and it sucks

Britney Spears - Till The World Ends

There's a song from like last year or the year before that I can't seem to find the title of. Wasn't it called "2012 (It's not the end of the world)"?

"It's Not The End of the World" - Super Furry Animals

Ahh here we go:
Jay Sean featuring Nicki Minaj - 2012 (It Ain't the End)

"Tokyo Storm Warning" - Elvis Costello

Pink Floyd, "Two Suns In The Sunset"

The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset
Could be the human race is run

spoken intro to The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall sends this up nicely

The Soft Boys - "Only the Stones Remain"

Young Marble Giants - Final Day

flaming lips - "one million billionth of a millisecond on a sunday morning"

I wrote a book chapter about this once:
