Ramble On - Led Zeppelin
Typical Led Zeppelin 60's hard rock sound. This song was influenced by the book The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. The song is not so much a farewell or goodbye, but has a 'thanks for the wine, I'm off now' feel: "Leaves are fallin' all around, time I was on my way Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay But now it's time for me to go, the autumn moon lights my way ... Got no time to for spreadin roots, The time has come to be gone."
Anchors Aweigh by Bouncing Souls This song has been described as an energetic, stirring song, reminiscent of a sea shanty - with a punk sound. The words are perfect for a farewell: "Anchors Aweigh my friends, I'll see you another day I'm going away, Experiences have to come And the past has got to go".
So Long, Farewell from The Sound of Music This is the classic goodnight song - cheerful and easy to sing along to. From the movie The Sound Of Music, which is also a movie classic, it was sung twice - the first time to say goodnight, the second time to say adieu.
