Songs for The Total Eclipse - what's yours?
UCR ^ | 4/1/2024 | Allison Rapp

On April 8, for precisely four minutes and 27 seconds, the moon will pass in front of the sun blocking out all light — a total solar eclipse.

The last time this kind of galactic display occurred was in 2017, and although eclipses like this do happen once every 18 months or so, they're usually not visible to people on land.

Of course, what would a global scientific wonder be without an appropriate accompanying playlist? Below, we've laid out 30 Eclipse Songs to jam out to while the moon does its thing.

It’s not just celebrities. Friends and friends of friends who schlep half the world to catch a few pics of Northern lights on their phones—and then email them out to everyone they know.

An excuse to send an update to their annual Xmas newsletter out midyear.

“We’ve been hearing about this for some time now...”

The understatement of the year my friend.......at my age I’ve seen my share of these particular astronomical events....and personally speaking, this one is as boring as all the rest....the only difference is the hype and especially the ridiculous overreaction by some cities and states.

There’s way more mindless lemmings in this country than I thought was ever possible. SMH

It's more ridiculous than that, people who go downtown to eat and post pics of their plates like they are eating atop Mt. Everest or something.

Bonnie Tyler’s Total Eclipse of the Heart is popular right now. But I will always love this “literal version” of the original video.

When I wake up every morning at 1 and 3 AM to pee, and I hear myself singing “Get out of my way I have to pee”. 😊

Fair as well.

Why I don’t do the major social media at all.
