A friend of mine asked me this, and my first though was Clint Mansell's Winter: Lux Aeterna. Most people know the song from the Requiem For A Dream soundtrack.

So what would your song be?

As long as it's not the theme to Benny Hill, it's all good...

EDIT: LOL Dan! :p

You know that track in the Godfather, and they play it when people are about to die? Yeah, that one.

This would completely depend on how I die:


If something sad: "Long As I Can See The Light" by CCR
If eaten by zombie: "Reject" by Living Sacrifice
Something kind of jazzy (killed due to gambling debt in a jazz club): Abide By Me

I'll think of more later.

After four years of lurking I feel so ashamed that my first post should be in this thread. But, I just cant help myself. I really should have posted in the bulk beef thread though.

Mine would have to be Another One Bites the Dust by Queen.

"Nights in White Satin" by the Moody Blues but I want it sung by David Bowie.

And I want the camera to slowly zoom towards my dead outstretched hand to find that fingers twitch revealing I am not actually dead yet and that there will be a sequel.
yeah.

other than the benny hill theme, i like this one as well:
http://bmbdramatic.ytmnd.com/

maybe the two can play at the same time, or one after the other. first the dramatic song, then followed by the benny hill theme.

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby


Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on


Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby


Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me


Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down


Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down


Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....


Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security


Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby


Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me


As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away


Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you call my name?



:p
