Just in case anyone wasn't there for the 1980s... and missed the omnipresent feeling of nuclear war.

And inspired by "I Want My Mutually Assured Destruction

So here's a few really obvious songs I happen to remember.

Weird Al's Christmas at Ground Zero

Tom Lehrer's We'll all go together when we go.

Sting's I hope the Russians love their children too
