The last ten years or so, it seems like soft rock type tunes geared toward middle aged women are loaded to the gills with Crowleyite sentiment.

The acts come and go, but the hollow call to YOLO is constant. Here's one rather explicit example…

 

Ingrid Michaelson Lyrics

 

"Afterlife"

 

When the world is breaking down around you

Taking everything that you know

What you didn't know

Is that we can go forever if we want to

We can live inside of a moment

The one that we own

 

You and me we got this

You and me we're beautiful, beautiful

 

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright

We got, we got, we always got the fight in us

We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight

Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

 

Living like you're dying isn't living at all

Give me your cold hands put them on my heart

Raise a glass to everyone who thinks

They'll never make it through this life

To live a brand-new start

 

You and me we got this

You and me we're beautiful, beautiful

 

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright

We got, we got, we always got the fight in us

We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight

Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

'Cause we're the afterlife

'Cause we're the afterlife

 

Every time I close my eyes I hear your favorite song

Telling me not to run, not to worry anymore

I can hold on tight to nothing better than the rest

So it's now or never more

 

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright

We got the fight in us

We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight

Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

 

I'll post more later. Who has been composing these elevator music tier calls to degeneration??
