Eulogy songs

I can only think of a few off the top of my head:

  • So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright by Simon and Garfunkel
  • Timothy Leary by The Moody Blues
  • He Knew (about Einstein) by Kansas

Anyone have more?

    ^ Eulogy of sorts about Elvis. Making fun of him, more like.

    Actually, “Candle in the wind” was originally written about Marilyn
    Monroe, which is why the song originally started out ‘Goodbye Norma Jean’
    which was Marilyn’s real moniker.
