Bright Eyes – "At The Bottom Of Everything" (2005)
2009/11/23
LikeI've got bad news for everyone. YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!
Yup. Me too!
It will happen, mark my words. It really isn't worth worrying about though. It is kind of like going to the dentist, to work, or to the bathroom. You're going to have to do it eventually, so you really shouldn't focus on it or become obsessive about it. Just go with the flow. Allow the movie of your life to unfold during those times when you have no control.
Now I'm not saying be careless or anything. Also do take some control when you can. But don't fret about the stuff you cannot control, including your eventual demise, and hope that a song such as this is playing as your plane plunges into the ocean. It is really quite upbeat for such an event, and thus better than some other "last song" possibilities I think…
e.g. Frédéric Chopin's Marche funèbre for piano in C minor, Op. 72 No. 2

I also suggest the music genre:
The MP3 may be purchased here… Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
That tune is really incredible, and I'm not really into that kind of music
It is a great song. Your comment comes at a time when I was thinking of it myself given recent events in my life.
May I also suggest these songs too…
Death Cab for Cutie – "I Will Follow You into the Dark",
