First of all, the songs:
1. Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Nibelung) by Richard Wagner.
The second of the four acts of this cycle is Die Walküre (The Valkyrie), song taken in the film Apocalypse Now (1979) by Francis Ford Coppola.
It's a great opera refering to the Nibelungens, a legend of the nordic mythology.
As stated, I like classical music. Period.
2. Lilium by Kumiko Noma.
Another beautiful song.
3. The Four Seasons by Vivaldi.
As the first one, it's really beautiful. And, as the first, it's very long. When on a desert island, you got spare time, so long songs are better than songs of 1min30s.
4. Lucia di Lammermoor by Eric Serra.
Music from The Fifth Element by Luc Besson.
And yes, if you didn't already understood, I like classical music (and also this movie).
5. Carmina Burana by Carl Orff.
Music also present in the movie Excalibur by John Boorman.
Also another great opera.
6. Piano Concerto #1 by Tchaikovsky.
This music is great for waking up in the morning.
7. Still Alive by Valve form the credits of the game Portal.
This song means something very important: Someone will always be here, whatever you face, you do, or you don't do.
(1) - Did I say something wrong ?
(11) - Yes.
8. The Girl in Byakkoya by Susumu Hirasawa.
This is the main theme of the movie Paprika by Satoshi Kon.
As said in the movie, a little bit of Paprika can make the life much more happier.
Then, the book:
It's a little series of 14 books.
- The Belgariad series
Pawn of Prophecy (1982)
Queen of Sorcery (1982)

- The prequels to The Belgariad

Polgara the Sorceress (1997), with Leigh Eddings

And last, the luxury:
- 1 computer
- 1 electric factory producing just enougth energy for the computer (not of a survival value)
- 1 Internet connection
