(1) Yamma Yamma Yamma Boring Boredom : Watching the X-Ray-Spex documentary the other night was reminded just how many punk songs were about Boredom : Much of the 1970s felt like lockdown for young people, all the time, perhaps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVsRlYsII6o">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
(2) The Buzzcocks, of course, with Boredom "Of course my future aint what it was". All the tv being turned boring because of Prince Philipp& #39;s death recreates this feeling. (live here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTiHp6XYm2E">https://www.youtube.com/watch... )

(5)And a UK Punk/Stooges crossover, the Sex Pistols doing "No Fun", which doesn& #39;t say the "Boredom" word, but is pretty much about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RPvfJXh-n0">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
(6)Even angry protest took the form of performative Boredom "I& #39;m so bored of the USA" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8jca8ZATfA">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
(7) And of course "London& #39;s Burning (with Boredom)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCw9_avTlYs">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
