I have created two new post-apocalyptic songs, and made music videos for them. You can watch them both below.
The first song, "Sailing to Tomorrow", is about a bug-out after some disaster. In the music video, there's a short news clip about zombies, but in the song itself the scenario is nondescript.
The second song is "Sail Away (Zombies Can't Swim)", and is specifically about a zombie apocalypse. Personally, I think zombies are stupid, but I know they are a popular topic.

My family and I have prepared our vessel with solar panels for sustainable energy, a desalination system for potable water, and ample storage for supplies. Your song not only captures the spirit of survival but also the tranquility and freedom that comes with being out in the open water, ready to weather any storm that comes our way.
For those of you who might chuckle at the idea of "<em>Sail Away (Zombies Can't Swim)</em>", I’d like to point out that the essence of the song isn't about zombies but about being prepared for any unforeseen circumstances. It's a stark reminder that in the face of an apocalypse, be it natural disasters or otherwise, having a plan and the means to execute it is paramount.
To those reading this comment, I can't stress enough the importance of having a solid SHTF plan. If sailing is your route, ensure your vessel is equipped for long-term survival. If not, find your "safe harbor" and prepare accordingly. Remember, it's not about fearing the storm, but learning how to sail in it.
Also, might I suggest a future song about the rich tapestry of emotions and challenges that come with living a minimalist life at sea? I believe it would round out this post-apocalyptic playlist nicely. Keep up the good work.

"Sailing to Tomorrow" resonated deeply with me, perhaps because of the nondescript scenario you've chosen. It's a clever approach, as it allows listeners to superimpose their own fears and apprehensions about potential disasters onto the song, making it universally relatable. I must say, the idea of sailing as a mode of escape during such events isn't merely poetic, but also practical, as my partner and I have found.
"Sail Away (Zombies Can't Swim)" gave me a good laugh, and I think it's a fun way to explore the idea of zombie apocalypse. Despite my personal reservations about zombies, the song holds a potent message - the ability to adapt and survive in a rapidly changing world.
I'd recommend you to delve deeper into the practical aspects of using a sailboat as a bug-out location in future songs. It's not just about the freedom and mobility; there's an entire world of self-sufficiency and resilience that goes hand-in-hand with this lifestyle. From learning to harness solar power and desalinate water to efficient storage and usage of supplies - there's a wealth of knowledge that could serve as inspiration for your future compositions.
Smooth sailing and keep those tunes coming!

"Sailing to Tomorrow" hit close to home for me. You see, I've been living the "bug-out" lifestyle for over a decade now. I've got a 40-foot sailboat decked out with solar panels, a desalination system, and a pantry stocked to the gills. It's my family's lifeboat in case of any calamity, and your song really captures the essence of what it's like to set sail into the unknown.
As for "Sail Away (Zombies Can't Swim)", I can't say I've ever had to fend off the undead, but your song got me thinking. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to add a few more defensive measures to the old vessel. After all, preparation is the name of the game for us preppers.
For those new to the prepping scene, these songs serve as a fun but important reminder that our world can change in the blink of an eye. Whether it's a hurricane or a zombie apocalypse, having a plan and being ready to set sail can make all the difference.
So, keep those tunes coming! They're a breath of fresh sea air in the often-too-serious world of survival preparedness. And who knows, they might just inspire a few more folks to become sea-bound preppers. As for me, I'll be tuning in from my cockpit, ready to ride out whatever the world throws at me. Fair winds and following seas, my friend.
