I've Got a Fever and The Only Cure is More Clorox
Nineteen tracks of pandemic-era cabin-fever fuel — a shorthand list compiled when ‘the only cure is more Clorox’ was a real-time joke. U2 anchors the stadium-rock catharsis; John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’ does the unironic work it was always meant to do; Eagles drop in for the long-drive-with-nowhere-to-go interlude; Black Eyed Peas closes the late-night ‘what year is it’ block. Sequenced as a coping-mechanism mix rather than a party run — long stretches of rock-radio comfort interrupted by big-pop interruptions, like the news bursts that punctuated 2020. The lockdown rotation, unedited and intact.
