  • "Pretend We're Dead" é uma canção lançada em 1992 pela banda estadunidense de grunge L7, faz parte do álbum Bricks Are Heavy. A música foi escrita e cantada por Donita Sparks. A canção atingiu a posição #8 no "Billboard Modern Rock Tracks" e apenas ficou atrás no UK Top 20 Hit Singles, estagnando na posição #21. A canção tem um som "sujo" típico do movimento grunge; distorcida, influenciada pelas guitarras do industrial-punk . No entanto, a música tem uma apelação do cruzamento com som típico de um teclado doas anos 90 do teclado, que fez a canção amigável para às rádios, mesmo em estações conservadoras como a BBC Rádio One. Este potencial é reforçado pelo chorus imediato e contagiante, apesar de um rock pesado, atitude e som punk. L7 cantou a música no music show familiar " "Top of the Pops" e no "The Word", um programa noturno destinado à cultura pop do Canal 4, muitas vezes visto como a antítese do "Top of the Pops". Isso nunca foi mais evidente do que quando Donita Sparks baixou as calças, durante uma performance, revelando estar sem calcinha. O single foi lançado nos seguintes formatos no Reino Unido : 7 ", 12", CD Single e como uma edição limitada (vinil), "picture disc". A canção foi destaque nos jogos de videogame, programas de TV e filmes, incluindo Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Rock Band 2, Beavis and Butt-head, Hindsight , The Perks of Being a Wallflower e no trailer de Shaun of the Dead.
