Assuming you're not on Death Row or about to be flattened by a bus...

Anyway, I'd go for either Meditation from Thais by Jules Massenet, or Yoda's Theme by John Williams. They're both very serene and of much depth. The perfect musical accompaniment to slipping away quietly🙂.

Pretty geeky but I'd like to head Hedwig's theme by John Williams - it always gives me tingles and makes me smile.

One Day like This by Elbow

The music my husband wrote for my babies when they were born, incorporating their little snuffling noises and squeaks. I listen to them from time to time and get a tear in my eye every time.

Frangipane · 05/05/2019 21:06

Faure's Requiem, the Sanctus if only one part of it can be chosen. I am no longer religious, but that music lifts me to a higher plane and will float me into heaven if that exists!

Either that or Josh Groban and Charlotte Church singing The Prayer.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 05/05/2019 21:06

'Asleep' by The Smiths

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 05/05/2019 21:07

But love Frankie's The Power of Love as mentioned below too.

Nelly the elephant.

This is the earliest song that I can remember and it was a song that may have been the first one that I learnt to sing.

It would be comforting to hear that before I went.

Maybe as a medley with

A windmill in old Amsterdam

Never smile at a crocodile

And

Que sera, sera

Lisette1940 · 05/05/2019 22:38

FiremanKing Grin well life is a bit of a circus at times Grin Nelly packing her trunk and all that.
