Queen - Another One Bites the Dust

Always look on the bright side of life - Monty Python

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!

Don't fear the reaper, obviously.
-
Great choice. Such a good song and oddly calming.
-
-
Crub your enthusiasm theme song
-
lmaooo yes, perfect
-
-
Yakety sax.
-
Ha ha, that would be my choice too, to wind my friends up. That or Jeff Buckley singing Dido's Lament, everyone weeping into their hankies. "Remember me, remember me, but oh forget my fate...."
Nah, Yacketty Sax!

Metallica - Fade to Black

Anything by tropical fuck storm. Maybe "it's getting boring by the sea" by blood red shoes.
Hm.
I don't think I can pick one. I don't know if that means I don't know myself or I know myself too well.
"The egg and I" by the seatbelts?
That's pretty good
-
You're gonna carry that weight
-
Wow. I’ve never encountered someone mentioning tropical fuck storm in the wild.

-
Kansas - Dust in the Wind
-
I like to think that'll be the day the music dies, so I'll go with American Pie.

Komm Süsser Tod - Evangelion
Black Hole Sun - Sound Garden
-
Evangelion
0.o
Komm, süßer Tod: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komm,_s%C3%BC%C3%9Fer_Tod,_komm_selge_Ruh

It's not that song, it's a song that plays during the climax of End of Evangelion and has very strong themes of suicide and loss, played over an upbeat, lively tune. Just imagine these lyrics over something reminiscent of a Beatles song circa Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band:
*I know, I know I've let you downz
I've been a fool to myself
I thought that I could
live for no one else
But now through all the hurt and pain
It's time for me to respect
the ones you love
mean more than anything
So with sadness in my heart
(I) feel the best thing I could do
is end it all
and leave forever
what's done is done it feels so bad
what once was happy now is sad
I'll never love again
my world is ending
It's one of my favorite scenes in animation, just because of how utterly fucked up everything is and how many layers there are to everything

Yakkety-sax

Sigur Ros - Hoppipola
-
-
Love that one. I'm partial to Agætis Byrjun as a closing song. Despite what Agætis Byrjun means.
-
Also great :D
I could probably pick 10 songs that fit this category from Sigur Ros~
Scratch that I could pick all 11 songs from "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust" alone

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
-
I would hope it's something good, something with a nice beat and maybe a piano. A song I adore but haven't heard in a decade.
My grandfather died listening to Willie Nelson it was peaceful at least.

George Harrison mortgaged a house to see this movie.

@NaibofTabr your comment led me to give op an up vote without listening because I knew exactly what song it was from yours!

-
Another One Bites The Dust
-
probably one of these
- First love (young oceans)
- ain't no grave (crowder)
- well done (the afters)
- the tired and the hurt (moby)
- always look on the bright side of life (monty python)
- hearing (sleeping at last)
My Grandad died while my uncle played it is well with my soul

An old Mexican song, Guitarras, Lloren Guitarras., something like Guitars, Cry Oh Guitars. The music is fantastic and it seemed to me he wasn't singing about guitars at all.
Lyrics translation:
Guitarras, lloren guitarras,
Guitars, cry oh guitars
violines lloren igual;
violins you cry as well;
no dejen que yo me vaya
don't let me leave
con el silencio de su cantar.
with your song silenced.
Gritemos a pecho abierto
Let's yell with a full chest
un canto que haga temblar
a song to make tremble
al mundo que es el gran puerto
this world that is the great port
donde unos llegan y otros se van.
where some arrive and others go.
Ahora me toca a mí dejarlas,
Now it's my turn to leave you,
ahora me toca a mi marchar;
now it's my turn to part
guitarras, lloren guitarras
guitars, cry oh guitars
que ahí queda lleno de amor,
that there remains so full of love,
prendido de cada cuerda,
clinging to each string,
llorando a mares mi corazón.
crying oceans, my heart.

Nothing because no one will be there to experience it. It’s kinda like the tree falling in the forest with no one around to witness it. Fade to black, this hermit bag of meat is gone.

Somewhere In The Between by Streetlight Manifesto. One of my favourite songs for sure.
"So you were born, and that was a good day. Someday you'll die, and that is a shame. But somewhere in the between there's a life of which we all dream. And nothing and no one can ever take that away"
"Well someday soon my friends, this ride will come to an end. But we can't just get in line again..."
-
Drifter in the dark by Ween

Hopefully some song that will be written by someone who hasn't been born yet.

Afroman - Because I Got High

Failing that, either Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes by Thievery Corporation or Hell is Round the Corner by Tricky.

Every time I open spotify, I always start my music experience with one of 3 songs..
"Numb" by Linkin Park
"Complicated" by, Avril Lavigne
"Perfect Day" by Hoku (legally blonde soundtrack)
so probably one of those 3 songs
-
Son of Man.

Beach House - Days of Candy

Purple by Crustation as remixed by J Dilla (6:47)
and
"Lonely as the sound of lying on the ground of an airplane going down", the first three tracks off of He Has Left Us Alone But Shafts of Light Sometimes Grace the Corners of Our Rooms by A Silver Mt. Zion (19:54)
Jóga by Björk interpolated with the coda from Timabaland's video mix of Hit 'em wit da Hee by Missy Elliott. (about 6:28)
and
You Got Me by The Roots (4:19)
and
Roads by Portishead (5:03)
So... end credits for 42:31.
and, finally, after the credits
Last Donut of the Night by J Dilla; played on an hour-long loop. In my head canon, when he was in hospital, just before he died, this was the last track Dilla constructed.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
Huge success!
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
