The Last Song...

Zombienosh

Lets say you're on death row and before execution, instead of the last supper....
you were told you could listen to one last song before you died, what would it be?

Doctor J

Orion by Metallica

Zombienosh

thats a good one alright..... im still having trouble pin pointing one
think bodycount - dead man walking would be fitting lol

it would be a Metallica for me aswell though, "To live Is To Die"....

Mr. Presentable

"Dazed and Confused" live by Led Zeppelin because it lasts 26 minutes and 53 seconds

olly

i think it would have to be 'the company wont colour me' by Colour of Fire coz its class or "Burn Baby Burn" by Ash to lighten the mood. might as well go out smiling

cournioni

"Floods" by Pantera, the way it fades out at the end is just class. If its the last song I ever hear I'll be happy (for a few seconds before I die anyway!).

eoin5

The Mears Volta - Cassandra Geminni, so I wouldnt have to die for another half an hour at least.

Ph3n0m

tough choice

a few that come to mind are


Opeth: White Cluster
Megadeth: A Tout la Monde
Ozzy: Mama I'm Coming Home

Civilian_Target

The Beatles - A Day in the Life, from Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band - on vinyl.

toffo

Because i probably would...Die Laughing - Therapy?

Legacy by Mansun.

"Nobody Cares when You're Gone..."

idontknowmyname

Bullet With Butterfly Wings- Smashing Pumpkins

Pugsley

Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness

Not only is it the most breathtaking piece of music, ever, it gives me a whole hour to plot my escape or at least greatly wound the ego of the executioner

Mr. CooL ICE

Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name of course!!! Im surprised nobody mentioned that already.

Matthewthebig

Bullet by Misfits! One of my favourites, a short sharp shock before I shuffle off this mortal coil

Damn you, that's the song I was going to pick :mad:

John

BBF3 by Godspeed You Black Emperor from the vinyl version of "Slow Riot For A New Zero Kanada". Why? Because it is a locked groove track so it never ends.

Numina

Nine Inch Nails - Hurt

Its the best end for anything!

That or Master of Puppets

It wasn't me!

Johnny Cash-Hurt
Metallica-Orion
Jeff Buckley-Hallelujah

It's kind of an occasion for an acoustic song I think. Either way, my last request would be to have Hallelujah on a CD player in my ears at the moment.

You only get one song you greedy bastid. That's it, no songs for you, straight to the chair!

It wasn't me!

Hmmm... I wonder if the buzz of the electric chair could be converted to a signal and sent to an amp...

Doctor J

I'm sure Tom Morello could make something of it

It wasn't me!

Heh. Or let Kirk Hammett jump up and down on a wah pedal somewhere along the line.

Citizen_Erased

Boh Rap - Queen

Because whenever my captors start doing the Bill and Ted routine ( lets face it, everyone does) I would silently slip off into the free world again unoticed!

Baggio

Depends on the death method!

if it was sitting in ol' sparky id want something by SPARKS!

firing squadd id want something by GUNS AND ROSES!

beating me to death something by STIX!

drowning me something by THE WATERBOYS!

kicking me to death something by GORDON LIGHTFOOT!

and killing me in a hurry?..well something by RUSH of course!

......................ciao' Baggio

Tar.Aldarion

Corporal jigsore quandary-carcass

Squirrel

Thin Lizzy - Sarah, for my girlfriend

The Fitz

Bohemian Rhapsody- Queen, Only song for me.

mp3guy

Um, if i wanted to be super depressed going out Dream Theater - Space-Dye Vest and Dream Theater - Disappear. Maybe Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence, because its 42mins long... or maybe just Metallica - Nothing Else Matters

superconor

Highway To Hell by AC/DC because i gotta go out in style!
Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden because it is one of the best songs ever and its about death row.

But probably, Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Reminds me of my dad, and also its a bloody rocking tune

i gotta be one of the few who caught that...
the center groove of the b-side of Sgt. Peppers is 30 seconds of random clips of conversations and music and songs from teh recording of the album. and because it's the center groove, on a vinyl record, it'll repeat until it wears out. which should take something in the region of 5000 listens with an ok set up.

i'd pick the mercy seat by nick cave.
or serves me right to suffer by johnny cash.
or ride the lightning by metallica...

actually, prolly the outlaw torn.

Listen to the Tender Prey version of the Mercy Seat by Nick Cave. The electric chair sound is made by a bass plugged into a distortion pedal and hit with drumsticks. But it doesn't really sound like what I imagine an electric chair to sound like.

steveland?

Dark of My Moon - Gene Clark I think would be a good one to send you off..

That or maybe Bobby Brown (Goes Down) by Frank Zappa

HIM-Don't Fear The Reaper

or maybe the good version (the original): by BOC

Deadnight

Hmmmmmm...it's between three:

'Retrovertigo'~Mr. Bungle
'Written in Stone'~Sinergy
'A Tout Le Monde'~Megadeth


Or ''Til Death' by Obituary, because everyone would die laughing when I'd try 'sing/growl/scream' along to it. And I mean DIE laughing....(think of that Monty Python sketch )
