Songs to listen to before/during CTB?

[John Smith]

...just your opinion or songs about catching the bus. I know of a few ...Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reaper...Blink 182 -Adam's Song...Third Eye Blind - Jumper....

 

[Toenditall]

that was awesome

 

[explorer]

Wtf!! Why songs when you are going to die?

 

[stargazer]

If it's still during the month of December, I've suddenly felt like, leading up to it, but not during it, I may listen to that Love Actually rocker guy's song "I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes, Christmas is all around us" blah blah blah.

His character was just epic in the movie, his "don't give a shit" attitude seems like something to make me feel inspired. Plus, it's Christmas. Ha!

 

[Rad Aiko]

I don't know if I would listen to music when ctb.,. I have some troubles of hypersensibility with music, it brings to me very lucid memories of happy times... and that memories are the most depressive for me.

But if I... I would hear to HIM, Bring me the Horizon or Sotaisei Riron...

 

[Rad Aiko]

Or Crystal Castles...

 

[dyingtodie]

Yes Rad happy memories are the saddest for me too, so sad.

I started going through the Elliott Smith discography today. Something I swore I'd only ever do when appropriate as it's straight up suicide music...at least for me...cause I got into it 15 years back at 15 when my first suicidal depression struck me down.

I may play some soothing Binaural Beats or some mantras during my transition. If I had a sangha "spiritual community" who wanted to 'chant me out', that sure would be ideal...to help guide my soul to it's correct destiny...but we're living in the stone ages when it comes to dying properly so, fat chance for that one.

I just might appreciate peace/quiet in that moment...and may not want distracting music.

John Frusciante - dying song, forever away, how high are some faves that have been supporting me. Oooh and Daniel Johnston, talk about sad! Hate Song...was one I feared, it starts with "you won't even know who you are, or what you're doing, just you, and your shadow on the wall" Yikes! I'd never want to pass in such a state but can totally comprehend the state of mind and the accompanying tunnel vision of a suicidal soul, like me. Listen to John Frusciante while you still can people!! Especially The Empyrean. John is the closest artist I've known in like-mindedness...(not claiming to be a divine musical genius like him) but just to have suffered severe alienation.

Don't fear (the reaper) is such a good one.

 

[Lefty]

Third Eye Blind - Jumper, Jimi Hendrix - Castles made of Sand, could be hard though, music can make me feel better depending on the song.

 

[Jamil Williams]

When I die fuck it I wanna go to hell cause imma piece of shit it ain't hard to fuckin tell it don't make sense going to heaven with the goodies goodies dressed in white I like black timbs and black hoodies...

The Sky is Crying by Gary B.B. Coleman
Claire De Lune by Claude Debussy
Riders on the Storm by The Doors
Disintegration (title song, not the album--although it is amazing) by The Cure
Tuyo by Rodrigo Amarante (Nacros Theme Song--worth translating if it's not a langauge you already know)
Gimme Gimme Gimme by Black Flag
Wait by Ryan Hemsworh ft. Keaton Henson & Mitski
Too Much by Drake (and whomever may have also worked on it...who knows...no one gets to the top alone.)

I have an infinite list...many genres, languages...as I write this, I think of not hearing them ever again. Can't even touch that right now.

On a side note, my present nomination for Best Spoken World Album (as applicable in this realm) Black Coffee Blues by Henry Rollins

I wish you peace and comfort in whatever path you may chose.

 

[therhydler]

I will listen to Lost On You by LP because if I still have any fear this will definitely make me do it

 

[gingerplum]

Song to the Siren by This Mortal Coil, or Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here. If I still listened to music, which I don't.

Was just thinking about Wish You Were Here today as an option

Honestly if I listened to that now, I would never stop crying.

 

[vacuums]

I haven't figured out what I'll be listening to when I finally do ctb, but this is a really important aspect of it to me because I want my final moments to be spent listening to something special and good. My first attempt I was listening to A Drop In the Ocean (cheesy, I know) but it was calming and it felt right. I can see myself listening to Love of my Life by Queen because it's beautiful, calming, and special to me.

 

[Jadon91]

Italian song.

 

[dumbfarang]

great song man, i used to listen to silverstein a lot.

this new death cab song is pretty dope and seems pretty fitting

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]
