How Did We Come to This is a song that has resonated with me for several years. Taken from the Andrew Lippa off-Broadway musical “The Wild Party”, the song is sung in the aftermath of a party that makes the singer question everything.
When I hear this song, it makes me think of all of the division and anger plaguing the world. With the attacks on the Capital building last week and the spread of lies and hate that are overtaking us, I wanted to offer this to anyone else who is hurting right now.
This is the second installation of my year long weekly posting of songs as part of my #RandomSongsILike series. For this series, I will be posting a new song every week from every imaginable style and genre. The only criteria is that I need to like it!
