F*CK 2020: The Playlist
5 Perfect Tunes For The NYE Party We Can’t Have Because F*ck 2020
2020 has inspired a lot of musicians. Many wise and wistful songs have been penned about this strange and socially-distant year.
This list doesn’t have any of them. These songs are the sweary ones, the shouty ones, the ones to howl as we drain the last drops of booze from the bottle and then use that bottle to smack 2020 right in the junk and out the damned door.
(NSFW. This contains swearing. So much swearing.)
Avenue Beat — F2020
Put your hands in the motherfuckin’ air
If you kinda hate it here and you wish that things would
Just like chill for like two minutes
We’re starting off lowkey and wine-in-an-actual-glass classy (hic!) with this conversational song as sublime and softly-sweary as 2020 was fucking awful. Sip your drink, and then drain your glass at the chorus.
Tomorrow X Together (TXT) — F2020
Please, lowkey f*ck 2020
Does this sound familiar? It does. Is it the last song, reinterpreted into K-Pop? It is. Is this a really lazy and half-assed choice? Abso-fucking-lutely, and that’s what makes it perfect for this list! Welcome to 2020, the year of half-assing everything while crying, drinking directly from the bottle, and wearing your pyjama bottoms all day.
2020: So bad even K-Pop is swearing about it!
The 12 Days Of Quarantine — Chris Mann
On the fifth day of quarantine, this lockdown year gave me
Reeeeemote learning
Hoarding tendencies
No more friends
Blue rubber gloves
And the virus COVID-19
It’s not New Years without some cheesy Christmas remixes. And it’s not 2020 unless someone is crying into their wine while shouting about murder hornets. Because COVID-19 alone wasn’t bad enough, 2020 just had to dig deeper.
Scooter — FCK 2020
Fuck 2020! Stuck on the wrong channel
Like chained to a dead camel, ah
Getting drunk to ignore the lyrics yet? I hope so because it’s time to put on some Eurotrash. Just like Coronavirus, this song is horribly catchy — and will plague you for weeks, months, maybe even years — after a short period of exposure.
Steel Panther — Fuck 2020
2020 can suck my motherfucking diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick
Sweary. Inappropriate. Offensive, tasteless and obscene. But that’s enough about 2020! Drain the last booze you can find as hair-metal parody band Steel Panther take us through to the big finish…
