As promised, here are some more big questions for you to ponder. First though, a couple of more generally existential tunes...
Sparks - The Existential Threat
Manic Street Preachers - Jackie Collins Existential Question Time
The biggest question that last one has to ask is, "Oh, mummy, what's a Sex Pistol?"
Here are some more direct questions about our very existence...
The Amazing Rhythm Aces - Why Can't I Be Satisfied?
Jail Weddings - How Am I Alive?
The Flaming Lips - Do You Realise?
That's the one I want playing at my funeral.
Echo & The Bunnymen - What Are You Going To Do With Your Life?
The Bees - Who Cares What The Question Is?
There was only one song I could close with today - the one that makes me ponder the biggest questions of all, such as, "Well, how did I get here?", "Am I right, am I wrong?", "My God, what have I done?" and most importantly of all... why is there water at the bottom of the ocean?
I was at a funeral where Do you Realise was played.
ReplyDeleteIt seems the perfect song for a funeral. My other choice is Keep Me In Your Heart by Warren Zevon.
DeleteWhy can’t I be you?
ReplyDeleteI suppose the other question is whether I’m referring the song by The Cure or I mean it literally.
DeleteOr both.
DeleteYou must be referring to the song, K. Otherwise, you need serious help.
