@alexkilgour1328 10 лет назад

Skylineblue This was done back in the 60's. He was expressing a hope that they can hold off blowing the world up completely until everyone has colour tv (so it would be a few years off). This was in the midst of the cuban missile crisis, the Soviets were flying nuclear-armed bombers across the arctic on a regular basis and we had nuke weapons trained on every major Eastern Bloc city.

This wonderful man is still living, and just turned 94 on April 9th 2022. A friend of mine had him him as a math professor at Harvard years ago, and I am sorry that they both lived to see this day. They were of an age, of a generation, that knew well of the five years of horror Ukraine suffered under the unspeakably brutal Nazi occupation. And there are millions of Ukrainians now alive who themselves--and their children--suffered in World War II and for their lifetimes thereafter, only to realize that once again, the world is powerless or unwilling to intervene--but with the threat of nuclear weapons in the background, it is for a very different reason this time. But if you are trying to stay alive against fearful odds amid the carnage, the reasons don't matter: the result is the same 82 years later.

However this may not be the case for long and therefore I recommend everyone uses their last days to catch up on Tom Lehrer, listen to his songs and laugh that world weary way one does in the Latter Days. Yes please feel despair for the fate of humanity but do so with Tom Lehrer as your soundtrack and one day (if you are lucky enough to be a survivor) you will look back with a certain bitter-sweet fondness to those dark days of 2020 and think that at least you discovered Tom and his collection of barbed ditties.

I’m surprised that this and “we all go together when we go” haven’t been put in a fallout game yet

Unfortunately politicians keep making this thing all too relevant. Goddamnit Lehrer, you were a bit *too* spot on with these satirical pieces...

Now is the time to listen to this song.

@lexiconlover 2 года назад

So we know this is about to go viral, right? There are 614,597 views as of today. I'm sure it will be much more very soon.

What gives, Tom? It's been an hour and a half already, and the war continues!

An hour and a half from when the nukes are loaded. Not there yet...

I have the album "That Was The Year That Was", and I like that version of this song better, but the live view is worth watching - his smile and gestures are fantastic.

@Sjoerd1993 7 лет назад

Pretty sure there were ICBM's back then. In 'We will all go together when we go', which he sings in the same recording I believe he sings: "Just sing out a te deum When you see that icbm., And the party will be come as you are."

@DROPKICK500gaming 5 лет назад

ICBM's weren't the most common method of nuclear delivery in 1967 lol

The USAF has always trusted in a combined arsenal, to guarantee the biggest possible payoff in taxpayer money.

Many people don't know how close we came. Look up a couple names, Vasili Alexandrovich Arkhipov and Stanislav Petrov. It is amazing how one person can change the world.
