The ideals of a song of Death are that it must tie in with the situation. Over the past few months, I have browsed through YouTube to find music that. So far, this is what I have went through:
House of The Rising Sun by The Animals - Reason: Irony for thinking that you cheated death
Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head by B. J. Thomas - Reason: Raindrops
Burning for You by Blue Oyster Club - Reason: Litteral burns
It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) by R.E.M. - Reason: Feels like a song relating to an opening disaster
Love is (Linda) by Sweet Tuesday - Reason: Another irony song
We Didn't Start the Fire by Billy Joel - Reason: "We didn't start the fire"
Carry on Wayward Son by KANSAS - Reason: Yet another irony song
Spirit In The Sky by Norman Greenbaum - Reason: Ominous song
Mr. Blue Sky by Eletric Light Orchestra - Reasons: Another irony song/mocking the listener for hiding

Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio - Reason: "As I walk in the valley of the shadow of death"
Ocean Man by Ween - Reason: ???

Stranger In My House by Ronnie Milsap - Reason: Ominous song
Ring of Fire by Jonny Cash - Reason: Fire
God's Gonna Cut You Down by Jonny Cash - Reason: Ominous song
Thunderstruck by AC/DC - Reason: Lyrics can be seen as relating to electrocution
Leaving on a Jet Plane by John Denver (r.i.p.) - Reason: Feels like a song relating to an opening disaster involving a plane
