Oh man, I haven't heard "Feed the Tree" in years. I had that CD somewhere, and I loved that song.
I'll think about this tommy, but I'm not sure I have a lot self-focused songs -- more stuff like "People Who Died" by Jim Carroll, etc.
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Thanks, guys--I've listened to and downloaded a lot of these.
I kinda wanna stick "We're Only Gonna Die", "You're Gonna Die", "We're all Going to Die", "We're All Gonna Die" and "I'm Gonna Die" all together in the playlist, but I'm not sure if that'll work.
The Vic Chesnutt song is just lovely. I like "25 Minutes To Go" but I'm not sure that'll work here.
Anyone listen to the Future Wife song I linked to? I think that's my obsession song of the moment.

Amy, I can post "Feed the Tree" to Buffistarawk if you want.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I don't know where to find, and I can't suggest albums. And nothing that I can think of really fits in that playlist musically. But
BeeGees -- I've Got to Get a Message to You
Tom Jones or Porter Wagoner -- Green Green Grass of Home
Charlie Louvin -- Will You Visit Me on Sunday
I suspect most of the "dead girl/boyfriend" songs of the early '60s wouldn't fit, but I really suggest you check out the truly twisted
Jimmy Cross -- I Want My Baby Back
Does "soldier going to war, realizes he might not come back alive" qualify? If so
Jim Reeves -- Distant Drums
And I might as well go there. For contemplating -- or at least anticipating -- your own death, as a pop-oriented music lover of a certain age, I have to mention
Terry Jacks -- Seasons in the Sun

Oh, "Seasons in the Sun." God, I loved that song. Then there was "Shannon," which was about a guy's dog dying, if I remember correctly.
