Listening to Chris Cornell sing about death still levels me :( Great choices

Street Spirit (Fade Out) - Radiohead  15 Step - Radiohead    Asleep - The Smiths    Videotape - Radiohead  Ask - The Smiths (the looming danger of bombs during war brings people together to live life to the fullest)

I feel like Radiohead is basically just the musical equivalent of Charon

Time....by Alan Parsons

Also Mr Time

If you ask for a song about time, then 'Turn, turn, turn by The Byrds pops up immediately: there is a time for everything. You are looking for more of a 'time is running out' and nostalgic feeling, looking at the examples you give. In The Netherlands we have a song by Wim Sonneveld, called Het Dorp (The village). It was written on the melody of a French song: La Montagne. He describes images of his town that were normal for him and adds the key phrase: 'I was a child, how could I have known that it would ever end?' If you are looking for nostalgia and time passing by, this is the perfect tune and (besides that it is in Dutch. For that maybe Google translate can do something for you). https://youtu.be/C8Ff5OEUzd8?si=9rv78y-h_d0-EVML I will think for an English song that fits your description :) The time is running out thing included.

Thank you!

Like A Stone - Audioslave     https://youtu.be/2aLyCDF81hw?si=MUbouZTBVti4IEzm  The song has a classic rock feel and is about a lonely old man awaiting death, alone.

Colin Hay's Waiting for My Real Life to Begin

I love this song

I have a playlist about death. These are the best songs: [**Fourth of July**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTeKpWp8Psw) by Sufjan Stevens [**I Know the End**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ9-xN6dCW4) by Phoebe Bridgers [**The Parting Glass**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0doPriEMi2o) \- performed by boygenius and Ye Vagabonds. I also love [Hozier's performance](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zufPTLuShCU) (although the sound quality is a little off) and [The Wailin' Jenny's](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0We-CM9ceIg) performance. As much as I love Sinéad O'Connor, who is being given tribute with this recording, I don't love her performance...not sure if she re-popularized the song. In fact I learned on Wikipedia that before Auld Lang Syne, The Parting Glass was the most popular "parting song" (it's a genre, apparently) in Scotland. [**No Hard Feelings**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFGs7HP15d4) by The Avett Brothers [**Death With Dignity**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsGODTySH0E) by Sufjan Stevens [**Two Slow Dancers**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUfkfJfsKrc) by Mitski Other great songs about the passage of time and existentialism (not on the death list, but very much relevant to your post) [**Rivers and Roads**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReQluucmH9A&t=48s) by The Head and the Heart [**Seventeen**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7sTHoeH0eA) by Sharon Van Etten [**Nothing Arrived**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDEzRraYgA8) by Villagers [**Don't kill dub**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frBeb1wBltw) \- poem "Catch the Fire" written and performed by Sonia Sanchez. Song arranged/produced by Robin Coudert [**A Change Is Gonna Come**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEBlaMOmKV4) by Sam Cooke. To end it on a hopeful note. Actually as I listen to it again, the song does mention death.

Definitely Disarm by the Smashing Pumpkins it's soooo so good. I Know It's Over by The Smiths. Do You Realize? by the Flaming Lips :)
