democracy/ennui

Have nothing left to say about the election; struck speechless by a fog of melancholic anticipation of the Tory hangover that tomorrow may very well bring. I'm absolutely sure that fear of being (further) overrun by right wing lunatics has nothing to do with a desire to take solace in stroppy Teutonic musicals. Some loosely linked video pap:

Blixa Bargeld sings Tomorrow Belongs to Me

Nick Cave sings Mack the Knife


Dudley Moore sings The Ballad of Gangster Joe (starts at around 1:30, although the preceding Britten/ Pears parody is pretty good too)

Auf wiedersehen, kids, and God help us all.
