When people ask me how I ever became interested in Native Americans, I wish I could simply play this song for ‘em, and tell ‘em that I grew up listening to this.

You know how TV theme songs are supposed to compliment or say something about the show? Set the stage before you even see the show? If it’s a comedy, the song will be happy and upbeat (Happy Days), mysterious shows get dramatic intros (Doctor Who and Sherlock), etc.

Suicide is Painless is the one theme song that compliments the sadness and the sense of hopelessness in M*A*S*H. It’s the one theme song that makes me so sad. It really is the perfect fit for my favorite TV show.
