Anything by Justin Timberlake.
Oh, wait, that would INDUCE suicide.
OK, second Fade to Black. Comfortably Numb has to be in there. Cats in the Cradle needs an honorable mention (personal reasons)
If I ever put the barrel in my mouth, I’m listening to Suicidal Tendencies’ “How Will I laugh Tommorrow?”
Hope this helps 
I Want To Be Sedated - The Ramones.
This one is waaaaaaay too easy…
Hurt by Nine Inch Nails
That song might be the darkest and most depressing song of all-time. I mean, nothing else even comes close.
By the way, the Johnn Cash version doesn’t compare to the original.
Lenny & Carl, Johnny Cash adds a whole new aspect to the song. It lives up to the original, definately. IMO of course.
“I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry” - Hank Williams, Sr.
“Only the Lonely” or “Blue Bayou” - Roy Orbison
“Still Crazy After All These Years” - Paul Simon
It’s a toss-up between Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” and AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell.”
Depends on how optimistic I feel that day.
Take the Long Way Home by Supertramp seems appropriate.
“So, when the day comes to settle down,
Who’s to blame if you’re not around?
You took the long way home…”
Pfff, it’s not going to matter a rat’s ass what you’re listening to if/when you bump yourself off. It’s not like you’re going to remember the music when you’re dead.
You don’t know that. Can you imagine offing yourself to Englebert Humperdinck and have one of his songs reverberating through your mind for all eternity?
I once heard a Christian song that went-
“I’m lonely for Heaven
I’m heartsick for Home
I"m sick & tired of this old world
and I just want to go Home.
I hear the Father calling
and I know He feels it too.
He’s lonely for His little girl
and He wants her home real soon.”
(Lyrics inexact- no idea who wrote or sang it)
anyway, my first thought was that I could just see that playing while a poor unhinged believer offs it.
The most sadistically upbeat way to go out would be with Bloodhound Gang’s Lift Your Head Up High (And Blow Your Brains Out)
Oh, no no no no no. If you’re going to go out to Pink Floyd it has to be to “The Great Gig In The Sky.”
Still, I prefer Queen’s “Don’t Try Suicide,” or maybe Elton John’s “Think I’m Gonna Kill Myself.”
FISH
Everybody Hurts or Nightswimming by REM, or the Smashing Pumpkins’ cover of Landslide. Radiohead’s Exit Music (for a film). Moerkertia by Hoven Droven or Fear of the South by Tin Hat Trio, if you’re in the mood for something with no lyrics.
Earlier on this song was referred to as “Blue Monday”-- so I guess in a way it’s been mentioned.
I’m sort of perverse. Songs that should make me feel really sad make me happy to be alive, and songs like the following nearly push me over the edge, or at least have me cry in my beer :
Halleluiah, by Jeff Buckley
I’ve got my love to keep me warm, by Billie Holiday
“Gloomy Sunday Lyrics”
"Sunday is gloomy, the hours are slumberless
Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless
little white flowers will never awaken you
not where the dark coach of sorrow has taken you
angels have no thought of ever returing you
would they be angry if I thought of joining you?
Gloomy Sunday
Gloomy Sunday, with shadows I spend it all
My heart and I have decided to end it all
Soon there’ll be prayers and candles will be lit, I know
Let them not weep, let them know,that I’m glad to go
Death is a dream, for in death I’m caressing you
With the last breath of my soul, I’ll be blessing you
…gloomy sunday"
Almost nobody knows of this band, but Smithereens by Amorphis would be perfect.
This fire hunts the soulless and the weak
Bursting through the madness in me
And through all the fear I have to keep
I still pretend to be real…
Kiss Off by the Violent Femmes
I take one, one, one cuz you left me
and two, two, two for my family
and three, three, three for my heartache
and four, four, four for my headaches
and five, five, five for my lonely
and six, six, six for my sorrow,
and seven, seven, seven-n-n-no tomorrow
and eight, eight, eight I forget what eight was for
and nine, nine, nine for a lost God
and ten, ten, ten is for everything everything everything everything
A few more:
Theme from Black Orpheus (probably the Paul Desmond version)
Nirvana’s live in New York version of Something in the Way
Anything by the Gin Blossoms (I heard the lead singer killed himself. Anyone know about this?)
There was a documentry on suicide, I think, or it might have just been this one particular case a couple years back. The guy had AIDS and he checked out to “Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong.
I totally can not listen to it now.
(Any Vancouver Doper’s know what I’m talking about? I think he was local.)
