The curation of the Suits' soundtracks is a masterpiece. I especially like Season 3's soundtracks, and some of Season 2's. Season 3's soundtracks really tugged at heartstrings and made me wanna melt into a puddle of feels. 

Enough gushing. Here's my current favourite.

The intro is vaguely reminiscent of an evil ritual, something that could be appropriate in a Macbeth movie. And then bam, it moves into a soulful classy guitar riff. It was playing for a pivotal Litt scene in Season 3. 

The song reminds me of how trying to do good in an apathetic and amoral environment can be futile. The (tragic) hero is trying to do some good but he's short-changed because he sacrifices some integral part of himself to the devil, or perhaps the outcome isn't as good as he wants to be because it's thwarted by somebody evil. 

And with that in mind, here's some thoughts on the elections halfway across the world.

I think apathy is gripping the nation. It is difficult to grasp Trump's stance on certain moral issues because he only says things to please. The fact that he's gaining so much momentum shows that a significant part of the electorate doesn't really care about what's right and wrong. One thing that is constant is that he wants to, vaguely, rebuild the economy and make America great again. It is a slim promise but he sells it well enough. It shows that some are willing to cling on to a promise of wealth regardless of the candidate's moral compass. 

Democracy works best if the electorate has a strong moral compass. Right now it is messed up. Too much absolutism, too little consideration for the broader values that they should want their presidency to stand for.

Mike Ross yells in Season 2, "There's such a thing as right and wrong!"

Those are golden words.
