Oooh what ballet/music will be played nationally when the us collapses?

It was swan lake for the USSR right?

I'm kinda hoping it's green day's American Idiot but that may be a bit on the nose

I vote "End of the Empire I-III" by Arcade Fire.

It'll more likely be a Kid Rock or Ted Nugent concert. Or simply five hours of topless Putin riding on a horse.

According to Ted Turner, it's "Nearer, My God, to Thee".

Trump is a huge fan of Cats, so maybe they'll play that?

It will be something tone deaf yet in retrospect poetic. Maybe something like this?
