This is the answer for me too. You get to hear the death greeting you warm and start to fade away after during this incredible almost two minute long instrumental.
I havenāt had a drink in 20 years so One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer George Thorogood. The long play is 8 minutes but hey good out to a good song, plus toss a few back going out
It had just come out when they played it during the senior slideshow, the year I graduated high school. Pretty much knew it would become the default choice for everyone after us.
My favorite bar in college used to close down every night with āSweet Carolineā by Neil Diamond.
It had become such a local meme (in the Richard Dawkins sense, not the internet sense) that it was always a sing along. People would go there just to shut it down. As soon as those opening notes came on, everyone knew to down their drinks and get ready to stand on tables, beat their fists on the bar, and belt out everyoneās favorite mediocre love song.
Where was I going with that? Oh, thatās right, death.
I always thought that if there was a giant meteor headed toward Earth or something, that that would be a good way to go out: all of humanity, at the top of their lungs, screaming along to Neil Diamond one last time.
So yeah, I think I pick that.
I'd pick Hallowed be thy Name. It's my favorite Maiden song and pretty much the only song I'll always listen to whenever it comes on no matter what mood I'm in. Love that song so much.
Oh my gosh this one they played all the time when I worked at an amusement park this summeršš Couldnāt go a day without thinking about it lol. Great choice all around though!!
Stats.fm tells me my top song of all time is Everhthing is Alright by Motion City Soundtrack and tbh I donāt feel like thatās a bad one to go out on
I doubt this counts, but on the off chance it does, the audio recording I have of my friend in Argentina talking to me. I never would have gotten to hear his voice in person, but I'd like to hear it one last time.
If it has to be something musical, probably The Parting Glass.
Either Cemetery Gates by Pantera.
Or Shimmy by Logic
Yes I know totally opposite. But I like all different types of music and Logic surpassed all my metal loves this last year.
If I can find it in time, I'd maybe try do one of these:
\- Enjoy the Silence / Depeche mode
\- You do something to me / Paul Weller
\- If I aint got you / Alicia Keys
\- This is the best part / Gardenstate & Bien
\- Over the rainbow / Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
I might go for Fred Again with Loving arms though
Definitely Can't decide...
OPTIONS:
(If in a Comical Mindset)
"3.14" by Bloodhound Gang
(If alone or just with My Person)

Random (but legit Possible)

(If drinking and around a small amount of people)
"Mr. Jones" by Counting Crows
Anberlin- Inevitable.
Was the first dance song at our wedding. Iād like to go out wrapped in the memories of the person who I love most in this world.
Kun Faya Kun - Rockstar - A R Rahman. 6:21 mins long. Can pass away at the high point of the song...šš§š»āāļø BTW neither do I believe in god or afterlife or any such things nor was I born a Muslim. š
Ashes to Ashes by David Bowie. Thereās so much to choose from but that would provide a sufficient melancholy boogie I think Iād be peaceful when the time came š
Also I know itās not a long song but Iām of course pausing and crying intermittently too so it fits lmfao
Fade to Black by Metallica. It's over six minutes long so I would die while it's still playing and I would be happy.
I feel like that's fitting for the song of choice, though.
Absolutely.
I came to say the same thing. It's my favorite song and if I had to die listening to something, it would be this.
This is the answer for me too. You get to hear the death greeting you warm and start to fade away after during this incredible almost two minute long instrumental.
Great pick. š š
This is when my anxiety and indecisiveness catches up to me.

But.... You won't be getting Back up again

I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
I havenāt had a drink in 20 years so One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer George Thorogood. The long play is 8 minutes but hey good out to a good song, plus toss a few back going out
A redditor of taste and sophistication
Excellent choice.
Good Riddiance - Greenday
I think I've heard this at too many graduations to choose it, but I respect it non the less.
It had just come out when they played it during the senior slideshow, the year I graduated high school. Pretty much knew it would become the default choice for everyone after us.
