Are we “On the Eve of Destruction”? While many do not remember or even know of him today, is Barry McGuire’s protest song still alive? Is his signature anthem, “On the Eve of Destruction” just as relevant today as it was some 60 years ago? Is the chaos people feel currently, aligned with the way people felt during the Vietnam war and the civil rights movement? Is the frustration and even depression being replicated on a nationwide scale? Do the lyrics resonate still today?
“When human respect is disintegratin’
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'”–Barry McGuire
