I've actually thought about this one, strangely enough.

Sister Golden Hair, America
A Very Good Year, Destroyer
In My Life, The Beatles


That ought to work. But I figure knowing my lifestyle, they probably won't ever find my body....

"I'm Too Sexy For My Grave" -- by Right, I'm Dead
That's the new 'Fuck...I'm Dead' album, right?

Anyways, "antarctica" by Men Without Hats, obviously.

I'm changing mine to either Motzart's Requiem or Handel's Messiah.
