This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
Huge success!

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
Queen - Another One Bites the Dust
Highway to Hell
Always look on the bright side of life - Monty Python
Well it's got to be Frank Turner's "Eulogy" innit?
Not everyone grows up to be an astronaut
Not everyone was born to be a king
Not everyone can be Freddie Mercury
But everyone can raise their glass and sing
Well I haven't always been a perfect person
Well I haven't done what mum and dad had dreamed
But on the day I die, I'll say at least I fucking tried
That's the only eulogy I need
My Way by Sinatra
Anything by tropical fuck storm. Maybe "it's getting boring by the sea" by blood red shoes.
Hm.
I don't think I can pick one. I don't know if that means I don't know myself or I know myself too well.
"The egg and I" by the seatbelts?
That's pretty good
You're gonna carry that weight

Kansas - Dust in the Wind
I like to think that'll be the day the music dies, so I'll go with American Pie.
Yakkety-sax
John Cage, 4'33"
The true answer.
Side note, there used to be a YouTube video of this song where the audio was muted for a copyright violation.
Loser by Beck
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
Another One Bites The Dust
I would hope it's something good, something with a nice beat and maybe a piano. A song I adore but haven't heard in a decade.
My grandfather died listening to Willie Nelson it was peaceful at least.
probably one of these
- First love (young oceans)
- ain't no grave (crowder)
- well done (the afters)
- the tired and the hurt (moby)
- always look on the bright side of life (monty python)
- hearing (sleeping at last)
My Grandad died while my uncle played it is well with my soul

An old Mexican song, Guitarras, Lloren Guitarras., something like Guitars, Cry Oh Guitars. The music is fantastic and it seemed to me he wasn't singing about guitars at all.
Lyrics translation:
Guitarras, lloren guitarras,
Guitars, cry oh guitars
violines lloren igual;
violins you cry as well;
no dejen que yo me vaya
don't let me leave
con el silencio de su cantar.
with your song silenced.
Gritemos a pecho abierto
Let's yell with a full chest
un canto que haga temblar
a song to make tremble
al mundo que es el gran puerto
this world that is the great port
donde unos llegan y otros se van.
where some arrive and others go.
Ahora me toca a mí dejarlas,
Now it's my turn to leave you,
ahora me toca a mi marchar;
now it's my turn to part
guitarras, lloren guitarras
guitars, cry oh guitars
que ahí queda lleno de amor,
that there remains so full of love,
prendido de cada cuerda,
clinging to each string,
llorando a mares mi corazón.
crying oceans, my heart.
Fuck you... By lilly Allen
Thought Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve was the one that played for everyone?
Colt 45 And two zig zags BABY THATS ALL YOU NEED
Afroman - Because I Got High
Or
Dr. Hook - I Got Stoned and I Missed It
Same song in two genres, really.
