Last song you ever listen to?

If you were dying and only had time to listen to one more song, what would it be?

I would be tempted by Queen's "show must go on" but that seems a bit obvious, so as something more random I might go with "Here comes the Sun" by The Beatles...

What would your "last song" be?

Harder than you think by Public Enemy. It will be grande.

Or probably Raketmaskinen by bob hund.

The Prophet's Song - Queen. Hopefully it'll give me another 9 minutes of living.

You could at least make it Telegraph Road by Dire Straits. That'll give you another 14 minutes and 20 seconds

And I'm sure you could probably go longer than that. Probably Yes or some self-indulgent prog rock nonsense. Or if you count Shine On You Crazy Diamond as a whole song. You get nearly half an hour then

Not a song as such for me, but Gustav Mahler's Symphony no.5 - particularly the 4th movement....

In the process of croaking, I'd rather listen to Josef Stalin's farts than that.

It's not my favourite song, or even amongst them. I just happen to find it fitting.

Then again, I might as well listen to something manly.
