It's an interesting choice to end an album on more of a downer but I've always loved how Sticky Fingers ends with Moonlight Mile.

The End - The Beatles - Abbey Road

(Although technically Her Majesty is the last last song on the album)

"Eyes of a Stranger" from Operation Mindcrime. It brings the story full circle (if you wait for the very end).

Pearl Jam - Ten - Release Me


Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral - Hurt
The entire tracklist has a specific order culminating in that final song.

Personal opinion, but I don't think it's particularly close.

When The Levee Breaks is another killer closing track. Probably my favorite Zeppelin song of all time.

Alice in Chains - Dirt - Would?

Another album where the songs are in a specific order - to tell a story with Would? being the conclusion.

Nerd rockers may be the only ones who appreciate this, but the last track of ELO's time-travel concept album Time brings it all home beautifully.

Anyone over 60 who does not agree with this should be shot.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.

"The Last Resort" is a pretty strong closing track on "Hotel California." Sums up the angst and anger over the California lifestyle that the album represents.

The Garden by Rush

Closed out the Clockwork Angels album and the entire catalog and career of the band.

I've wondered if "the garden" that Thanos retired to was a nod to the idea of this song.

Rime of the Ancient Mariner from the Iron Maiden album Powerslave. Epic song.

Faith Hope Love is an excellent disc. It jams all the way thru.

This total change of pace at the end is a beautiful song and end to 60 minutes of great music.

Hard to believe it's been 3 1/2 years since Neil passed and almost 8 years since the final concert at the LA Forum.

I paid $300 for a seat on the floor at that show strongly suspecting it would be their last.

According to the Internet, it looks like Working Man was the final Rush song ever played.
I remember leaving the show in a daze. It was surreal.

Editing for what was supposed to be a light hearted joke that I clearly missed the mark on. My bad
