    At my mates funeral ( suicide at 14 years old ) he wanted stairway to heaven playing. Broke the whole church hearing it. Still cat listen to it without shedding a tear.
    I'd want ennio Morricone. Ecstasy of gold.

    Raining blood is only good for the intro, Seasons is decent, bloodline is one I've never really liked (In fact the only song I liked off GHUA is New Faith).

    Hell Awaits just works cause of the backwards masking intro, the drums and general malevolent feel of the song.

    Cremated my father in law yesterday. His final song, as he was being lowered into the chamber was Meatloaf's Bat out of Hell!

    "Wagon Wheel" Why? Because it will be the one time it will be played around my bodily presence and I won't be able, or even have to listen to the f**king lame piece of sonic muck.

    I'll be getting cremated so just one of those log fire screensavers on a widescreen will do. Nothing like the crackle of a good log fire.
