The Soundtrack of your LifeChe Grimsdale writes: Now that Simon Cowell's stolen Everybody Hurts, tell us about songs that mean something to you - good, bad, funny or tragic, appropriate or totally inappropriate songs that were playing at key times.

"Bit" of a downer, but...Used to work with this great bloke, 35 years old, just got married 6 months prior, had step children,and a boy of his own. One day, he walked into the kitchen at work, said he "felt a bit funny", and collapsed. 20 minutes of CPR later and the ambulance finally arrived. Massive heart attack, the only thing remotely unbad about it is that he wouldn't have known a thing.
Cue his cremation service, as the curtains closed on the coffin, and family, friends and relatives said their final goodbye, a song lovingly chosen by his younger brother starts to play, very loudly. I didn't know whether to cry or burst out laughing.
Firestarter by The Prodigy.
Still raise a glass to him every time I hear that song. Life is bloody short. Do all those things you keep putting off,and do them now.
