songs about suicide.

Grace · 25-12-2007, 12:58 AM

hey.
i wondered if there are any good songs that deal with suicide.
don't worry, i do not intend to commit suicide.

i'm just curious.

amsterdam528 · 25-12-2007, 01:10 AM

It comes up in Amsterdam...but I don't know if it helps deal with it.

Grace · 25-12-2007, 01:12 AM

yeah, thought "Amsterdam" could be about suicide indeed.
as well as Radiohead's "Videotape".
can't think of any more, though.

Jed The Humanoid by Grandaddy

oh... and, of course, No Surprises by Radiohead

chuck kottke · 25-12-2007, 05:00 AM

Suicide is painless (was the opening theme music to the M*A*S*H TV series..)

winigwl · 25-12-2007, 04:34 PM

y do you wan't suicide songs?

winnie · 25-12-2007, 05:12 PM

Why not?
I think some of those songs have pretty interesting lyrics plus they give me the creeps, everytime I listen to them...

Grace · 25-12-2007, 05:37 PM

dito.
definitely a topic worth thinking about.

Perhaps a collection of songs to give as a present to a certain somebody who's a bit of a dick/bitch.

Sorry, that's harsh.

Grace · 25-12-2007, 10:51 PM

very good idea, though!

MrLick · 26-12-2007, 05:52 AM

Theres one that sorta deals with it, its more about depression and cutting but its a good song.

The way she feels by Between the trees.

TracieMorgan · 26-12-2007, 06:03 AM

This is a great day-after-Christmas thread,lol.

There are several...I'll post as I remember them, but the classic is Don't Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult. It's about a guy who tries to convince his girl to commit suicide with him.

Maralyn Manson does a really cool cover of Suicide Is Painless.

There's also If I Cose My Eyes Forever by Ozzy Osbourne and Lita Ford.

...and Last Resort by Papa Roach.

TracieMorgan · 26-12-2007, 06:07 AM

...also, Suicide Solution by Ozzy Osbourne.

MrLick · 26-12-2007, 06:08 AM

I wish I was Dead by The Shout Out Louds. and Its a Mad World but I forgot who sings it. SXRT by Bloc Party
