No one mentioned Electric Funeral by Black Sabbath!
I only have 3 songs that come to my mind:
Goodbye Cruel World - Pink Floyd
Babe I Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin
The End - The Doors

5. I Remember - Damien Rice
6. Up All Night - Counting Crows
7. Find The River - REM
8. I Grieve - Peter Gabriel
   And the ultimate song that HAS to be played
9. Man of the Hour - Pearl Jam
   Honourable Mentions:
   Set Me Free - The Kinks
   Hurt - Johnny Cash (the problem with this is it sounds way too personal for him, and it would seem wrong in some way to have it played while I was going out)
   Win One For The Reaper - Michael Giacchino (From the Lost soundtrack)
   And I just dug out Joe's Garage and listened to Watermelon again damn, that's a good choice too.

Wow, hardly any IMDb threads 10 years old are even allowed to survive.

Lots of great choices here. I would add
Angel- Jimi Hendrix
I Was Young When I Left Home- Dylan (although I could easily name ten more Dylan tunes)
Brokedown Palace- Grateful Dead (or Ripple)
But in the end there's only one for me:
Time, by Tom Waits
If that song doesn't bring a tear to your eye there's something seriously wrong with you.

Don't Follow- Alice in Chains (anything by AIC would be amazingly appropriate)
The End- The Doors
Hurt- Johnny Cash
First Breath After Coma- Explosions in the Sky
I'll think of the fifth one
We're all living in each other's paranoia.
