Thanks to Eskom, the day-to-day running of SA been hugely disrupted. Households have been plunged into darkness and there's chaos on the streets as we struggle with stage 4 load-shedding on a daily basis, causing mass anger and frustration.
While South Africans spend nights in darkness, the internet has provided us with some light relief, including songs that match our "dark" mood.
So, here are five songs that you should add to your playlist when you feel your blood pressure rise.
Simon & Garfunkel - Hello darkness my old friend
Coming in at number one whenever Mzansi's lights go out, is this classic. Because yes, in the dark, "silence like a cancer grows". Will we bow to neon light? Nah!
"Hello darkness my friend, I've come to talk to you again because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping, and the vision that was planted in my brain still remains within the sound of silence."
