Do you have a song to die to? (1 Viewer)

[lakerstan]

Ever since I was a kid in the 80's, for some reason, I always felt like I would be listening to a particular song when I died.  It's not that I wanted to die to this song.  It would just coincidentally be playing when I died.  It is a song, I thought, about a night on the town.  But as I read the lyrics now, it could just as easily be about death.  It's always tripped me out and wondered if any of you had a song you might die to.

Steppin Out - Joe Jackson.     https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=P5qj_PsUpPo

Odds are it will be an Arcade Fire song.

 

[In The Zone]

Lord I hope not. 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I guess Born in a Casket probably

Weird.  Radiohead the new death bed band?  This would be my choice:

Let Down

 

[Shrugs]

Sounds like Soylent Green

 

[Vanilla Guerrilla]

Metalica's 'Ride the Lightning", but when I was younger I assumed I'd continue to roll with the bad crowd.

 

[Parrothead]

probably Paradise By The Dashboard Light, because if I ever hear that song again I am going to shoot myself

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Jimi Hendrix 'Voodoo Child' (Slight Return)

And if I don't meet you no more in this world
Then I'll, I'll meet you in the next one
And don't be late, don't be late
'Cause I'm a voodoo child
Lord knows I'm a voodoo child
I'm a voodoo child

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Something that doesn't get recorded until 2082. 

Yes, I'd hate to be having a good time and then hear "that song" start up. Just enough time to the end of the song to text "bye-bye" and send to all.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

sonny and cher i got you babe

Either that or Pennsylvania Polka.

 

[BowieMercs]

I never thought of a song to die to, but it seems like this one would work for me & my dark irish sense of humor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46Fbg7CtqhQ 

But only with a decent sound system that includes a subwoofer. This is not an earbuds song. Also it's not a short song, so I'm hoping I don't die a painful death.

 

[BowieMercs]

Jimi Hendrix 'Voodoo Child' (Slight Return)

Not Sympathy for the Devil?  

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Not Sympathy for the Devil?  

Aw..what's puzzling you is the nature of my game?

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Seasons in the Sun

Good one.  

I'm thinking a little more Bobby Goldsboro though.

Added this to my favs.  You already know that I like the fiddle, but this is perhaps the jazziest Irish jig I have ever listened to. 

 

[B Maverick]

Not to die to but Oingo Boingo's Dead Man's Party will be played at the funeral
