Crow by Jim Carroll
Crows on a Phone Line - Let's Active
There's a Japanse lullabye about crows going home. . . but I can't remember what it's called nor do I know who may have recorded it.
'War Stories'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Thanks, doll!
Raven/crow songs, hmm. There's "Crow Jane" from Nick Cave's Murder Ballads. juliana, do you have that album? Also, Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer's "I Go Like the Raven", about a raven-goddess archetype. I'll send it off to buffistarawk now.
I do not have the Nick Cave album, sadly. Thanks for the music, Kate!
I need songs that deal with death and/or crows/ravens.
Incubus, "A Crow Left of the Murder."
I think know a lot of death songs, but the only one that comes to my mind now is The Twilight Singers' Martin Eden.
If you want it, I'll send it to buffistarawk.
I always have room for more death songs! I just finished this project, though. If people want, I can put it up.
So here's the listing - it more or less follows the arc of the show (which is why "Soulshine" is on there). "Dead!" should actually be the second song, but it's too good of an opener. Thanks for everyone's help!!
