What three pieces would you pick for your own?  Something to come in, something contemplative, and something to go out to?

Dogsong 2, The Be Good Tanyas. To ensure the mourners actually tear up.



Bad To The Bone, George Thorogood & The Delaware Destroyers. To contemplate irony (or not!).



Breathe Me, Sia. Not my pick for greatest series finale (it looks a bit like the world's worst car commercial, for a start), but wildly popular with the Six Feet Under fan base.


"You can't take a picture of this, it's already gone."

Oh, and this for the wake.

I've just posted this somewhere else.  I don't know which of the 3 it would be, but I think it's going to be there:-

I was going to post this in one of the Covers threads, although it's obviously not a cover, just a juxtaposition that shouldn't work but does – but this thread will do!

Remember: Fred Astaire is dead, Rita Hayworth was born in Brooklyn and died in Manhattan, which ought to be some sort of American metaphor, Michael Jackson is dead, even John Travolta has retired, and Robin Cousins retired before most people were born – this is why we have to dance!
