Funeral Song

frag420

So what song do you want played at your funeral.
For me it would be...........

You can only pick one and if you pick the usual cliches of Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell then you are an asshat:D

If I'm dead, then this is my attitude, plus the funeral will get a laugh. Doubt the priest would be happy though!!

I've actually told everyone that might have a say in my funeral that this better be played!!

Nothing. I hate when they play a song, the whole thing is so depressing can we just get it over with and let us get to the pub to get pissed and eat triangle sandwiches and forget about the misery of death please?

CreepingDeath

I'd pre-record me screaming and scratching my nails against the coffin lid.

After the coundown theme and all the mourners are inconsolable and wailing with grief at my passing, the passing of a beautiful human being I think the Magic Roundabout theme song would be fitting.

I would like to have something by Nick Drake probably River Man, one of my favourite depresso songs. I know eveyone always says that they want their funeral to have a party atmosphere, but in reality that never happens. Well none of the ones I have been to anyway.

McChubbin

Start off with a bit of Queen...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ADh8Fs3YdU

....end with a bit of Disco Inferno as I get cremated. :pac:

Mr Benevolent

The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition

or

The Peppa Pig theme

or

The Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends theme

There is an assumption on this thread that music is a good idea on the day of the funeral .More daftness on A.H...

I'd like to be looking down on all the faces as this played in the church.

My uncle passed away last week, he was a radio DJ, and they played this as we carried his coffin out of the church, it was one of his favorite tracks. I must say it brought a smile to a lot of faces!
