100 things...A song that makes you sad

When I listened to "The three bells" for the first time, the melody struck me as wistful. The first verses seemed cheerful enough: Someone is born and then marries, the church bells toll and things were okay; but then the final part kicked in and i was like o_O

I don't like the death of a viewpoint character, even in a song. I hate it when it happens in a fic or  movie I'm invested in (I'm looking at you, Wachowskis ;)

That's why I tend to end the fics where I do. In my mind their adventures continue, but i don't want to do a long fic from the 'cradle to the grave.' (with the exception of 'Twin story' but the plot bunny wanted it so :)
