In Today's Episode of "Morbid Meanderings"...
This persistent period of mourning that began with Neil Peart’s passing and continued with Lyle Mays has left me waxing philosophical in a morbid vein. I’m not sure if I saw someone post a list of songs to play at their funeral or not, but the thought has occurred to me in the past. My problem is choosing a workable list, there are just so many songs that represent who I am, as music has been one of the great defining qualities of my life. But, I never let an insurmountable task discourage me. Plus, I won’t really have to worry about it because I won’t be here when it gets played (assuming anyone will give enough of a shit to notice).
Below are screenshots of the original list, which spiraled out of control. I made the decision to create a shorter list (YT and Spotify links below) that represents the more important songs in a sort of existential vein (whether they made me sad, happy, or led me to ponder the meaning of it all).
Again, I know it’s morbid and I have no plans on going anywhere for several decades, but no one knows the hour of their death.
