Definitely something by the Moody Blues. Probably On the Threshold of a Dream, maybe To Our Children's Children's Children ("I never thought I'd live to be 100...").

Grace by Jeff Buckley. My favorite and does have a lot to do with death, so it is probably #1 contender.

Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd. "I'm not afraid to die"

Whatever And Ever Amen by Ben Folds Five would be interesting to end on. I basically wrote a whole nomination essay for why I like it so it makes sense to me. But I mean if my life was REALLY ending, I probably wouldn't want to listen to a ton of morals of life when life is suddenly irrelevant.

Maybe 01-10 by Radiohead. That might be cheating but I really enjoy that mix of my two favorite Radiohead albums.

I've never listened to ALL of Ocean Songs by Dirty Three. I think it would be nice dying to something beautiful I had never even heard before.

The longest album ever recorded, I would play it, then leave and go and do something fun.

Edit: Oh nvm I already answered the question a few pages back with similar response. 😁

Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over The Sea

I'm really tempted to say OK Computer on the basis that it's my #1 album. But I feel like Kid A would put me at ease more. I can't think of a more beautiful way to spend the last few minutes of my time here than listening to Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Regardless of the rest of the album, Two headed boy pt 2. as the closing track would be a stunning way to go out.

I was saving that one for the "ONE Album That Would Cause You To Die" thread.

I know it's a cliché at this point, but I don't see myself listening to anything other than In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. It's not just because it's my favorite album, but mortality and spirituality are among its main themes. My wife loves it too and it influenced our decision to have our ashes scattered together after we die. Maybe not from an aeroplane over the sea, we haven't decided yet, but something in that vein. :)

I should of looked harder before posting...

Oh, and my second choice would be Abbey Road, mainly for the closing medley, which sometimes brings tears to my eyes.

The more I think about this, the more it seems really fucking weird. Can you imagine yourself dying, just like lying there unable to move and then you're like "yess yess lets give dark side of the moon one last spin..." and then just lying there as it plays until you finally die. like god that's so awful.

Yes, that would be absolutely ridiculous! I mean, Dark Side Of The Moon? I hope they finish me off before it even starts! 😉

You want to be lowered in the ground before you die? 🤔

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. Going out with "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" would take on a delightful irony.

Well when you put it that way, "just lying there...until you finally die" would be a pretty awful experience regardless of what you're doing.
