My bad, 'tis blasphemy to confuse the two.

I was visualizing the playlist in the whole 'jukebox' deal in GT4.

I knew that...I actually have a few recordings elsewhere...

I feel so retarded... :dunce:

It is of the very upmost importance that your life be preserved at all costs.

I am yet another proponet of
Pink Floyd - Goodbye Cruel World
Short, simple, elegant (three things I'm not.) " I'm dead, bye, now go home. "

That is so wrong! :D Canon is wonderful(I believe it means "law"), but it's not Johann. It was by Pachelbel. ;)

A "Canon" is the description for a piece of music whose central melody repeats, albeit offset. Listen again to Pachelbel's Canon with this new knowledge, and it's easy to see. I believe that Pachelbel's is probably the most famous and best known of the genre, but is by no means exclusive.

I would have something like Coldplay's "Everything's Not Lost". And then I would either have Orbital's "The Box" (parts 1 & 2) or Rachmaninov's Second Piano Concerto (all 3 movements).

It's intended to convey a message of "Yes, you're sad now, but soon you'll be OK, and you must continue living, you must carry on, even though I'm not there to help you any more." Both of the latter two pieces start melancholy and end in this beautiful upbeat crescendo.

I'm feeling there's some potential benefit in choosing a Marilyn Manson song if you want to stick the finger to god and go to hell!

Hell would be much better because you get to play electric guitars, not just nancy little lutes and harps! :lol:

"Another One Bites The Dust" I envisage being quite popular as a funeral song, amongst a certain set of people... Its a good joke choice because everyone knows the song & can sing along!

Actually, I sent an e-mail to God, he said there were guitars, since he jams with Hendrix every other Wednesday...
