9:30 Coffee Break: Darkness

December 20, 2012

The winter solstice is once again upon us. As the shortest day of the year, we're supposed to enjoy the darkness and contemplate our existence (which is probably a good idea since tomorrow is the end times).

On the shortest day of the year (8 hours 46 minutes and 10 seconds to be exact) we want to have a 9:30 Coffee Break about darkness. Suggest song with the word "dark" or "darkness" in the title or lyrics for today's Coffee Break.

Songs Played:

Bruce Springsteen - "Darkness on the Edge of Town"

Polica - "Dark Star"

George Harrison - "Beware of Darkness"

Death Cab for Cutie - "I Will Follow You into the Dark"

Gram Parsons - "In My Hour Of Darkness"

Simon and Garfunkel - "The Sound of Silence"
