I’m your Moon - Jonathan Coulton 2008

A loving reassurance to Pluto from its moon Charon after it was officially reclassified as a dwarf planet.

the most romantic thing ever written 100% all other love songs go home

(…) Because Charon is almost half the size of Pluto, the two do not have a traditional orbit where the small body basically moves around the center of the large body. Rather, both Pluto and Charon revolve around a point between them (the barycenter), like a bola or a spinning pair of skaters. In addition, the two celestial objects are tidally face-locked, meaning they keep the same “face” towards each other (“like dancers”, according to Jonathan’s blog of the song).

Gone - Ioanna Gika (2012) - Buy on Amazon

I really like this song in general (and the movie; shut up) but someone from my childhood who was important to a lot of people just passed away. It’s difficult to know what to say, in that situation.

Dance of Death, also variously called Danse Macabre (French), Danza de la Muerte (Spanish), Dansa de la Mort (Catalan), Danza Macabra (Italian), Dança da Morte (Portuguese), Totentanz (German),Dodendans (Dutch), Surmatants (Estonian), is an artistic genre of late-medieval allegory on the universality of death: no matter one’s station in life, the Dance of Death unites all. The Danse Macabre consists of the dead or personified Death summoning representatives from all walks of life to dance along to the grave, typically with a pope, emperor, king, child, and labourer. They were produced to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life.^[1] Its origins are postulated from illustrated sermon texts; the earliest recorded visual scheme was a now lost mural in the Saints Innocents Cemetery in Paris dating from 1424-25.
