I dont want to hear you cry

You want the greatest thing
The greatest thing since bread came sliced.
Youve got it all, youve got it sized.

Freezing in the corner

Thats sugarcane that tasted good.

Or Scissor Sisters It Can't Come Quickly Enough
Sailling through the tunnels
In the morning by yourself
There's a very special feeling
True sensation all is well
If you stand and reach your arms out wide
Close your eyes and try to fly
It's an underground illusion
Tricking you from side to side
We knew all the answers
And we shouted them like anthems
Anxious and suspicious
That God knew how much we cheated
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life
Waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated
Skyscrapers rise between us
Keeping me from finding you
If the concrete architecture
Dissapeared there'd be so few
Of us left to navigate and
Defend ourselves from the tide
It's an underground illusion
Tricking you from side to side
There's no indication of
What we were meant to be
Sucking up to strangers
Throwing wishes to the sea
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life
Waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and
Left you so defeated
I think those two would be pretty good, until I start digging out some more music and remember some other songs that probably fit better
Don't Stop Me Now - Queen. Definately one of the best songs ever in my opinion.
I don't know about dying to a song but after I've died I want someone to sing "Amazing Grace" for me.
Funeral for a Friend by Elton John
It starts out with the really powerful death sounding organ tune, but it's rhythm is upbeat by the end. That's how I'd want my death to be...powerful, but everyone upbeat after.
Stairway to heaven- Led Zeppelin
"Dust in the Wind"...Kansas. :)
Imagine by John Lennon
"So Long and Thanks for All the Fish", c/o Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. :D
Amazing Grace played on bagpipes
Amazing Grace would be my last song
Definatly Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeplin
Dont forget the Dolly Parton Version. Blegh!!
Chasing cars by snow patrol as I swallow the pills and lay back on my bed for the last time in my living consciousness
Mad world
Let it be, Beatles
"Ding-Dong the Witch is Dead!"
I really want my next-of-kin to play it at my funeral.
AND I want Munchkins...lots of them!
"And when I die" by Blood, Sweat and Tears
"What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong.
"We shall Behold Him" by Sandy Patti.
Fix You- Coldplay
"When you try your best, but you don't succeed.
When you get what you want, but not what you need.
When you feel so tried but you can't sleep.
Stuck in reverse.
Light will guide, you home.
And ignite your bones.
And I will try, to fix you."
Thats easy:
Trouble Of The World
Performed by Mahalia Jackson
*Soon it will be dawn
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Soon it will be dawn
Trouble of the world
Going home to hear you're gone
No more weeping on Whaley
No more weeping on Whaley
No more weeping on Whaley
Going home to live with my love
(Repeat *)
Soon we will be done, trouble of
Going home to live with my love
I want see my Ma
I want see my mother
My Ma to see my mother
Going home to live with God
Soon we will be done
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
How soon we will be done
With the trouble of the world
I am going home to live with God
"Somewhere only we know" by Keane
or
"The End" by The Doors
Imagine- John Lennon
I think I'd have to say Strawberry Fields by The Beatles. It's one of those songs that gets you high on the rhythm and just so relaxed. Not to mention it sounds like the end of something. Like it would be used at the end of a movie, or the last song of a dance. It just works for endings in my oppinion.
at least if I died listening to it I would get that high, and die in a kind of bliss.
idk if that makes sense to anyone, but it does to me.
spirit in the sky by norman greenbaum.
My Boyfriend and My Favorite song was
Its so Natural (George Strait)
We heard it the Very First time Together
When I Lost him...
it was Playing on the Radio.(had just turned the radio up when it happened)
So it is also the Song I would Like to Hear Last.
Will You Remember Me? by Sarah MacLaughlin.
The Wind by Cat Stevens. And you would all cry and cry!!! It's such a sad song.
The Wind:
I listen to the wind
To the wind of my soul
Where Ill end up well I think,
Only God really knows
Ive sat upon the setting sun
But never, never never never
I never wanted water once
No, never, never, never
I listen to my words but
They fall far below
I let my music take me where
My heart wants to go
I swam upon the devils lake
But never, never never never
Ill never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never
Just a Closer Walk With Thee-Patsy Cline
Shadow of the Day by Linkin Park. -or- May Angels Lead You In by Jimmy Eat World
I can't possibly find a song that would be a tribute to my entire life from day one that I would die to and be satisfied, so I'll choose something with lyrics I don't understand lol. As arrogant as this may seem, I always felt that this song kinda illustrates the emotional mess my life has always been, and will most likely continue to be. XD
Also, it would make my funeral damn ominous if they played this while slowly lugging my coffin around lol.
Or I suppose that really amounts up to being a theme song more than a death one...therefore, how about L'alba dei morti viventi from Dawn of the Dead? I really love this song, while listening to it, it seems so much to illustrate despair, futility and complete hopelessness. I'm certainly not an Emo, but it could easily represent my feeling of always drifting and never knowing what will be what, like a zombie...I just picture utter solitude and dark clouds and endless fields with the occasional shuffling zombie whenever I hear this, and it would underline that I went through life knowing nothing and that I die a hopeless individual knowing nothing, as much as the day I was born.
Amazing Grace
Vince Gill: Go rest high on that mountain.
strawberry fields forever, by the beatles

by horsegal13 on February 22nd, 2007
The beat is enough to die to...then the lyrics are really good :) It reminds me of one of my rabbits when I was little that died. My brother came in and played that record for me, trying to make me laugh but it made me cry more ...I can laugh about it now :)
by princessemmabelle on February 22nd, 2007
thats sad... im sorry for your younger self
by horsegal13 on February 22nd, 2007
But now it's too funny :) Because we always had alot of animals outside when I was growing up, and they always died on us. So it was just another one biting the dust I suppose.
