Music to roll the credits to...
I am always fascinated and intrigued by seeing what song a director picks to play as the credits roll in his movie. I have never written a screenplay, or even come close, but I have had the Sparklehorse song "Sick Of Goodbyes" pegged as tune I want playing when the movie I never make fades to black and those credits start rolling.
I watched 'The Diving Bell And The Butterfly' last night and the song attached to this post by the late great Joe Strummer was the fade to black song...great choice I thought.
My other all time favorite is Steve Earle's "Pilgrim"(also attached) in the Laura Linney/Mark Ruffalo movie 'You Can Count On Me'...how about you? Any memorable credit rolling songs that you can think off? Or maybe a song that should be?

Heard "Ramshackle Day Parade" during the credits to The Diving Bell and the Butterfly as well. Great song.
Can't say I've given it a lot of thought, but "Straight to Hell" works as a closing tune in the right circumstances.
great post! great fade to black choice in 'the diving bell ...' as well. is it ridicolous that two of my more memorable fades are:
boy's don't cry - the bluest eyes in texas (A camp)
ski school II - darling (anyhowtown)
