Your Island Song!
 
Hi y'all!

I'd like to know, if you were finally expelled from society and banned on an island (alternatively if your cruise-ship had sunk -just if you don't like the idea of being expelled from society and banned),

WHICH ONE SONG would you like to take with you on that island, AND WHY THIS ONE SPECIAL SONG?


I'd take Pink Floyd's 'Breathe (in the air)' from Dark Side of The Moon.
Because:
A) its calm & quiet, slightly swirling atmosphere never stops to appeal to me...
B) It will forever remind me of a beautiful family in Houston, who shared their live with me for a few weeks a looong time ago...

Gilligan's Island Theme Song.

Because I'm whimsically self-abusive in hypothetical situations.

Right now it's probably Baroque by Malice Mizer.
It's about 7 and 1/2 minutes long, but only 6 of those are filled with music. There are so many modulations and different sections that it seem more, well, epic, than it really is. I love each part of it - the incredible main melody (stolen from JS Bach), the duel guitar solo (also from Bach), the stop start chorus, the cheesy but beautiful falsetto part, the frantic climax (partly in Engrish), and the eerie outro with the synthesisers set on "female choir". It makes me feel sad and inspired.

In a few years time it'll probably be the song that defined my final year of high school.

I probably could've chosen a few different songs: Haunted Henschel's Deep Inside Her Bathrooms, The Verlaines' CD, Jimmy Jazz and Me, the Laughing Clowns' Winter's Way or These Immortal Souls' eponymous song.
