The last song you would listen to?

The Final Countdown

Oh I see.

From the thread title I thought you meant the shittiest song you could think of that would make you want to kill yourself.

My very first thought was "A Better Place, a Better Time", by Streetlight Manifesto. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2yeNzL7rTU It's a very beautiful, happy song. Unfortunately, it's very specifically about not dying. It's about a lonely woman who does not kill herself. So I'm not sure if it would be fitting for the scenario, since I'm going to die when the song finishes. "If you feel like you might give in well don't, it's not your time".

My next thought was "Sunny Place/Shady People" leading into "Felt Just Like Vacation", by Bomb the Music Industry! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXYaiIdTSaI That's another very beautiful, happy song. It's also about not dying, though. "The winter never kills me". I'm starting to think most of my favourite songs are specifically about not being dead.

I'm considering "Halloween One and Two", by Laura Stevenson. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xuo-INzbUIQ I think that's a very beautiful, mournful, powerful song. There are some other good picks that slip my mind. I think I'd go for Laura Stevenson, though. I could die listening to her voice, and every part of that song is gorgeous.

Queen - Another One Bites The Dust

Keep Me In Your Heart ~ Warren Zevon

Certified bangers

I was going to say something sad like "Perfect Day" - Lou Reed or something quiet by Elliot Smith ...but I'd probably want some cheering up so maybe Jump in the Line - Harry Belafonte.

"Stairway to heaven" might buy me a few extra minutes; it's a pretty long song and it's stupidly appropriate... Or "Highway to Hell" maybe moreso?
"Path to Purgatory" might be a good idea for a really mediocre song... or "I'm on the Lane to Limbo..."

Today maybe it'd be Statues by Moloko, or At Last by Etta James, which would be weird to some since it's generally a wedding song... or Breathe Me by Sia and go like everybody went in Six Feet Under, while I play my whole life in my head.

"The End" by The Doors, just kidding ... hmm, I dunno.

William Control - Beautiful loser.

I like this song, though:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfBY96qxVRQ (Still go with my first choice, though).

Just realised I didn't put my choice

http://youtu.be/duYqlrgC17Q

For laughs, I disappear. For real, something ridiculously long, probably Pictures at an exhibition if instrumentals are allowed?

Sky Ferreira- I Will......no? Only me? Okay.

For what it's worth, by the Buffalo Springfield.

Get ready for one long comment. I can't think of any song I would want to hear. The only thing that comes to mind is the poem Thanatopsis by William Cullen Bryant (my favorite poem), from this section until the end. I find this utterly beautiful.

Earth, that hourished thee, shall claim
Thy growth, to be resolv'd to earth again;
And, lost each human trace, surrend'ring up
Thine individual being, shalt thou go
To mix forever with the elements,
To be a brother to th' insensible rock
And to the sluggish clod, which the rude swain
Turns with his share, and treads upon. The oak
Shall send his roots abroad, and pierce thy mould.
Yet not to thy eternal resting place
Shalt thou retire alone--nor couldst thou wish
Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down
, With patriarchs of the infant world--with kings
The powerful of the earth--the wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,
All in one mighty sepulchre.--The hills
Rock-ribb'd and ancient as the sun,--the vales
Stretching in pensive quietness between;
The vernal woods--rivers that move
In majesty, and the complaining brooks
That make the meadows green; and pour'd round all,
Old ocean's grey and melancholy waste,--
Are but the solemn decorations all
Of the great tomb of man. The golden sun,
The planets, all the infinite host of heaven,
Are shining on the sad abodes of death,
Through the still lapse of ages. All that tread
The globe are but a handful to the tribes
That slumber in its bosom.--Take the wings
Of morning--and the Barcan desert pierce,
Or lost thyself in the continuous woods
Where rolls the Oregan, and hears no sound,
Save his own dashings--yet--the dead are there,
And millions in those solitudes, since first
The flight of years began, have laid them down
In their last sleep--the dead reign there alone.--
So shalt thou rest--and what if thou shalt fall
Unnoticed by the living--and no friend
Take note of thy departure? All that breathe
Will share thy destiny. The gay will laugh,
When thou art gone, the solemn brood of care
Plod on, and each one as before will chase
His favourite phantom; yet all these shall leave
Their mirth and their employments, and shall come,
And make their bed with thee. As the long train
Of ages glide away, the sons of men,
The youth in life's green spring, and he who goes
In the full strength of years, matron, and maid,
The bow'd with age, the infant in the smiles
And beauty of its innocent age cut off,--
Shall one by one be gathered to thy side,
By those, who in their turn shall follow them.
So live, that when thy summons comes to join
The innumerable caravan, that moves
To the pale realms of shade, where each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but sustain'd and sooth'd
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave,
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

If I were to die and had time left for one song, I would say read me Thanatopsis and I will be ready to go.

I'd listen to a friend sing, it wouldn't matter what song. Just like the sound of his voice.

Queen days of our lives

Whatever song the animals outside want to sing to me. I just hope it's a sparrow and not a crow. Or a wolf howling at the moon and not a cat in heat.

"Asleep" by The Smiths

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CGIii_eTOk

"Life is Beautiful (Acoustic)" by Sixx AM of maybe Moonlight Sonata (1st movement) by Beethoven.

...Then again, I might want to listen to something more upbeat in my final hours, so who knows.

"The Bard's Song" by Blind Guardian.

MY first thought, is Incubus - Drive

but give time, i will think of a whole playlist lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgT9zGkiLig&feature=kp

That's a difficult one.
Recently, I feel in love with this song I heard on Pandora Radio. It's called Spheric by Yuminale.
Good luck finding it on Youtube, but if you ever get a chance to listen to it, then I would recommend it.

Another choice would be Loch Raven by Animal Collective.
