Autopsy - Sandy Denny/Fairport Convention.
The lyrics fit me to a T. A hopeless romantic, always crying, always falling in love.

If I had my wish, they would play my music. Probably Three Poop Dog, Television Set, Redundant Stomach, and maybe Radio Donkey.

Well, whatever song it is, it will have to be quite loud. I will be dead, after all.

ELP -  From the Beginning, Lucky Man, C'est La Vie, Take a pebble

Not because of any real lyrical significance but just because they are some of the calmer tunes and I like them.
I guess if I was into cruel jokes I'd pick some more of the hardcore tunes like Hymn, Time and a Place, Tarkus, The Three Fates or Fanfare for the Common Man.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music
