I've always been a bit reckless, a bit too bold,
Thinking I was invincible, a force to behold,
But when "Gigantic" by Pixies came on the radio,
I knew that even giants can fall, you know.

Pixies: Gigantic.

You met me in a very strange time in my life

This might be a bit of a wayward choice, but this is probably the song I'd want to have played at the end of my funeral.

The song wrestles with the human condition, the feeling of being lost, and searching for a way out. The choice would have that touch of cynism I sometimes embrace.

But it also is a song that inspires people to come together and to dance. I see them dancing out of the room going back to their lifes. Some of them maybe with one or two good memories of me.

And last but not least: great music with an iconic riff.

Pixies: Where is my mind?.
