No one dare disturb

#24 - A song that you want to play at your funeral

(I wanted to say "The Death Punch", a classic Tamil folk piece, but couldn't find a good enough sample anywhere. Please do tell me if you do. For further information, see here.)

"The Sound of Silence", by Simon and Garfunkel.



And if you haven't seen Watchmen yet, watch it as soon as you can. It is perhaps the best superhero-based movie out there. If not for anything else, watch it atleast for the title sequence featuring one of Dylan's greatest songs and also for the Comedian's funeral with the above song in it. (And see if you can spot Rorschach in the latter.)
