I know we've done this one before.
We've done everything.
Here's the question.
If you could create a mixtape/cd to be played at your funeral/wake, what songs would you want your friends and family to remember you by when they hear them songs being played?
As I was beginning my new listening rotation, the question crossed my mind, and I will post the songs I have selected as they come up.
My first two selections are by Leonard Cohen
Bird On The Wire

The last track on Jean Michel Jarre's 'Oxygene' 7-13 release. Please remind me when the time comes.

Or I can go out with the one I came in with. The whole morbid lot would feel better on the day in question, not that there's actually going to be a ceremony of any kind. I don't believe in all that crap.

It isn't Band Of Horses is it? Their second album 'Cease To Begin' is just amazing! This is from their debut.

I love that song ^^
As for the original question, I'll have to think about it. Tough question!
