I'd play dead.
Or, "Everytime I Die" by Children of Bodom
I'd try to match different pieces of music to the different emotions I'd want to evoke.
Ralph Vaughan Williams' Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis to provide an atmosphere of hope, life and reflection
Rikki's performance of Pure Heart for poignancy and life's end
Russel Watson's cover of Faith of the Heart for inspiration and courage
I'd be tempted to throw in something as a memento of my geekier side, as if the last two on the list above weren't enough. Probably something like FFX's Hymn of the Fayth from the Sending scene, or an orchestral arrangement of Amazing Grace, or maybe even a bagpipe rendition of Walking on Sunshine. It'd be almost like an in-joke for me.

I would dedicate this song to however my lover was before my death.

You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!
When I die, they can compost me, then go inside and listen to whatever the hell they want to.![]()
Nobody's going to go to my funeral, so it really doesn't matter.
