Top 20 Songs for your Pandemic Playlist

Headphones sitting on a ledge with a city landscape in the distance

As the world goes into lockdown we’ve compiled our Top 20 playlist across the decades about isolation, survival and the end of the world as we know it. We struggled to limit it to 20 songs and we’re pretty sure someone is going to say we were remiss not including The Cure. 

So settle in and turn up the volume for some power anthems, raunchy rockin' and emotional ballads to ease the isolation boredom! And don’t forget to add your suggestions to expand the playlist in the comments below.

I will survive, Gloria Gaynor featured in Priscilla

Staying alive, Bee Gees

U can’t touch this, MC Hammer 

I want to break free, Queen 

Toxic, Britney Spears 

Isolation, John Lennon 

It’s the end of the world, REM 

Antisocial, Ed Sheeran

Bad medicine, Bon Jovi 

Every breath you take, The Police 

Disease, Matchbox Twenty

You make me sick, PINK 

Right here waiting, Richard Marx 

Harder to breathe, Maroon 5 

Splendid Isolation, Warren Zevon 

Survivor, Destiny’s Child 

Lonely, AKON 

Stay Away, Nirvana 

All by myself, Celine Dion 

From a distance, Bette Midler 

Bonus track: My Corona – Chris Mann

    Time for a little levity, perhaps? Then turn to Tom Lehrer. Start with "I got it from Agnes", and move on to "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" and finally "We will all go together when we go". Enjoy!

      Nothing like Oz rock and such a beautiful song really lyrically and written about a friend of Docs that died. May he rest in rock heaven or is that hell

      Amazing. Though there seems to be a bit of longing in Ammers choices compared to other lists I've seen.
