my favourite "genre" of music is happyish songs about death
examples:
We're All Gonna Die
Memento Mori
When I Die
and also all the songs that give me specifically the same vibe. my friends are often confused
edit: thank you all for the recommendations <3 a lot new songs on my favourite playlist!

Not a 'revival hymn', but more of a 'survival hymn'. (As introduced one time by the artist.)

Let’s not forget our modern folk artist!
Get Set Go - Suicide
Edit: Get Set Go - Die Motherfucker Die
I don't like music in major-key but make an exception for Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, who specifically talked about how he made the juxtaposition between upbeat music and lyrics about the apocalypse and doom a deliberate choice and made one of the all-time classic songs.
Dirt Poor Robins - Last Goodbye
I can't click those right now, but very much look forward to them. Have one of my favorites:
