Well, today's the day. The day – according to the ancient Mayan civilization and Internet conspiracy theorists – that the world is going to end. Now, I don't believe for one second that that's actually going to happen (not today at least). But just for the sake of argument, and so won't I be accused of ignoring it altogether, here's a collection of 21 songs about the end of the world. Enjoy? ~ JH
