Nobody Does Songs About Nuclear War Anymore

While many think of '80s music as all neon, fun and poppy, some forget that one of the most common themes in pop music of the era was, well, nuclear annihilation. Songs about it were pervasive and crossed all genres, because the threat of being turned into atomic ash was a real threat that was on everyone's mind, 24/7. By the time the Berlin Wall came down and ended the Cold War, the frequency of such songs waned. How many of these songs have you heard???
