Most of the songs I’m enjoying, I’m enjoying because everybody around me is enjoying them, too.Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. I don’t have any song that has meaning for me that wouldn’t have meaning for anybody else. So my last song would be something like “What a Wonderful World” or “Over the Rainbow.” One of those deep, hokey songs. And I know it’s something about the mystery of those chord changes and my way of singing, which is very fragile sometimes. For me personally, if I heard the song “Do You Realize?” I’m not sure it would affect me. When we play these songs live, we never do them like, “Ugh, that song again.” Someone in the audience-they’ve been waiting for that song. For songwriters, that’s as great as it can possibly ever get. ![]() There’s a couple of songs that all the songwriters wish they’d written and this is one of them.Īlmost every show we play, someone will tell us about using the song “Do You Realize?” at their grandmother’s funeral or the birth of their kids. It’s probably these types of emotionally connective songs. But I think people would pick something like that. And so in a sense, I would hope I don’t get to pick my last song. This is a song that goes in and out of being so sentimental, powerless-and some other times, it’s so powerful, it devastates you. When we do a Flaming Lips show, almost every night when we get done and can control what we play on the PA, we play Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World.” It’s special to me, but I know everybody plays it. Are you listening to it for yourself? Or to remember someone or something else? So part of you thinks, do you really want that song, whatever it is for you? And then you just go get electrocuted? Or is it that you want that song and it’s an overwhelming feeling of all this love from your family or children or whatever. Everything that’s ever happened to you is in this stream. It’s an absurd, overwhelming connection for your whole life. And then you want to live more than ever, all at the same time. Depending on your song and your mood, when you get done with your song, you kinda wanna kill yourself. Music does that great thing but also that horrible thing where it takes emotions and your life and just crescendos it up for two or three minutes and it’s fucking devastating. That’s about as devastating as you can get! Let’s say I’m getting electrocuted or whatever I’m dying of: I’m going to be dead, but do the people around me know it’s the last song? Or am I listening to it on headphones, in isolation, as I get taken to the electric chair? At different times in my life I’ve thought about this thing and how fucking horribly tragic that would be-that you would get to pick your last song. ![]()
