Phillipe Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 There's a scene in the movie "Soylent Green" that always stuck in my mind...Edward G. Robinson ("Sol Roth") elects euthanasia during the film and during the process watches an AV presentation which includes:Symphony No. 6 ("Pathétique") by TchaikovskySymphony No. 6 ("Pastoral") by Beethoven"Morning Mood" and "Åse's Death" from the Peer Gynt Suite by Edvard GriegWhile his choices are a bit..refined...for my own tastes, I can appreciate the role of music during our lives and, presumably, at the end of them.Just from the top of my head, I think I'd like:"Angel" by Sarah McLachlan"Who Wants To Live Forever" by Queen"Fields of Gold" by StingWhat music would you like to listen to when your time has come?
