We always leave the sound on the TV on whenever we go anywhere to make it seem as if though we were at home. As we were walking in the door I heard, "so we go inside and we gravely read the stones, all those people, all those lives, where are they now?" It is always awesome to hear a Morrissey song on such mainstream media such as HBO ("The Yound And The Dead" - a documentary on the Hollywood Memorial Cemetary). I have not seen the end of the show as I am typing this but I will check for the credits and let you know. Love and peace.

What self respecting cemetery documentary would even think of excluding The Smiths' Cemetry Gates in the soundtrack? None, I guess. The new America Undercover documentary on HBO, The Young and the Dead, includes nearly the entire track starting about 45 minutes in.
The documentary details the purchase and renovation of the Hollywood Memorial Cemetery, which includes such residents as Rudolf Valentino, by a group of friends from the mid-west who plan to bring the cemetery into the future by adding new technology to the burial process (e.g. a film production unit creating "memorial" clips of the deceased).
Curiously, I don't remember hearing any other topical music by known artists included in the soundtrack.
