Supposedly as the Titanic was sinking the band played "Nearer, My God, to Thee."

When the young Confederate soldier, Sam Davis, was being led to his hanging (At Pulaski, Tn.) during the Civil War for espionage, he was asked if he had any final requests. Witnesses said he requested the Union band to play "On Jordan's Stormy Banks"?

I'm sure others here can associate certain songs with other events in history.
