What's on your Hurricane Sandy playlist?

You've stocked up on food, batteries and candles; you've purchased a generator (well, maybe) and tied down all of your patio furniture. So what's left to do as you await the arrival of Frankenstorm? Well, how about a little background music?

There's no denying the fact that those in Hurricane Sandy's path are experiencing major tension as they wait for the storm to make landfall. In an effort to bring a little levity to the situation, we're asking folks to tell us what's on their Hurricane Sandy playlist.

When you hear the name Sandy, what songs come to mind? A popular Springsteen tune? John Travolta belting out a sad love song outside the drive-in? Or maybe you're more likely to crank up the Scorpions and let them "Rock You Like a Hurricane" as the high winds start whipping through your neighborhood.

Whatever your musical preference, comment below and tell Patch what songs we should be listening to as we weather the storm.

Since power outages are inevitable having a long run time flashlight is a good idea.

Lowes has a 65 hour run time flashlight for under $5.00

I got mine in store. I also got one at Target.
