Where Will I Go When I’m Dead And Gone?

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW

WHERE WILL I GO WHEN I'M DEAD AND GONE? is one of my more controversial songs. Why write a song for kids about death and dying? Because it's a subject no one wants to talk about! Curiosity about death is completely human and understandable. Kids need safe people to talk with about it; to ask questions and process some of the huge feelings that come up when we lose someone or something important to us. Death comes to all living things, and can be scary and sad to think about, but rather than get uptight, I play with some the fearful thoughts and make them less scary, without making fun of anyone who feels afraid. There's a video of this song on YouTube with about 240 thousand views. It "gets this subject out onto the table", so families can air it out and let it breathe.
