I came upon a song by chance when I browsed YouTube. It's a kind of song I normally don't listen to and it's nothing special from an objective point of view. Yet, it struck a chord with me and made me acutely suicidial, i.e. I felt that I must end it all IMMEDIATELY. It made death seem beautiful and poetic and I felt no sadness or fear. Now I avoid listening to it, and when I do, I have to steel myself first. It's become my "Song of Death" and I assume that I'll be listening to it when I leave. Has anyone else experienced something similar or am I just weird?

You're not weird at all. I have a specific song that I plan to use as well with the same type of feelings attached.

A friend played me a bts song when I was having a panic attack to calm me down (she really likes them and the song makes her feel calm) so now when I hear the song I feel anxious and suicidal

I relate to this in a way. I had a playlist of a few songs I would listen too on repeat in the days leading up to my first attempt to get me in the mindset. I plan to use it again but I will still listen to it when I'm feeling at bit lost and it grounds me. Maybe not in a good way, I don't know but I think it's normal. Well normal for us anyway, whatever that means.

I don't know if it makes me feel acutely suicidal but listening to this song makes me feel totally at peace with dying.

The music video is even more pain inducing, because if I saw all of those psychedelic DMT esque visuals while ctb I would probably have a freak out.

For some reason, this song penetrates deep into my heart and makes me feel small and vulnerable.

Quite a few of my favorite songs put me on that suicidal mindset.
But no surprise, at least currently I'd have to say hurt covered by johnny cash does the trick.
Nine inch nails original version was depressing as is but something about it being sung by a old man in his last days who truly resonates with the lyrics hits harder. He was famous and had so much, and not saying I know his story or much about him,
but when he sings the lyrics 'my empire of dirt' it really puts in perspective that even having so much means so little. And that as a normal person who could never compare to such an icon, I can say the same words and relate. Really gets me thinking about life.

My method is drowning so this song describes it almost perfectly.

"You're lost on a sea that you sailed on
Now its cold and rough where you are"

"I've been alone on this sea for so long
I wanted to touch, I had to feel love
Before these waves took me under"

"I've been mistaken for something I'm not
For something I wished I could be"

"But I've been a liar
I have been ugly
I can be ugly"
