COVID-19 not the only thing spreading like wildfire as songs about virus proliferate | TorontoMoon.ca 200328Sa | Online/On Air Shows for Saturday, March 28, 2022

“I Gotta Wash My Hands” video screen cap

From “Corona Blues” by James Anthony to “Invisible Enemy” from Rob Minderman, “I Wish I Was Locked Down With You” by Marsala Lukianchuk and Colin Brunton’s “Corona Rhapsody” —not to mention the “I Gotta Wash My Hands” Beatles parody— songs about the Coronavirus are popping up all over the internet.

Other songs about distance or being alone or in danger, whether covers or originals, are also getting new life as performers increasingly turn to the web to satisfy the needs of fans deprived of the live experience.

Musicians are writing and recording the tunes in a variety of formats and broadcasting them on platforms including Facebook, YouTube and Instagram and it seems there’s no end in sight.

We have a number of them listed in today’s digital and on air listings.  Take a gander and a listen or twenty and do feel free to share any we missed that you know about so we can include them in future days’ lineups!
