    Elton John has re-written "Candle in the wind" in the event of my untimely demise.

    I like the Joe Dolce idea. But perhaps Monty Python's "The Bright Side of Life"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭Crazy Christ


    probably something from Chas and Dave

    Actually, best song ever would be the Hokey Cokey - "..They put the right foot in, the right foot out.."

    The last time I saw one of these threads. One of the posters had been killed within a few months.
    Touch wood ye all.

    That would be so class. If I was going to have a funeral I'd want that played.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,203 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Would have to be something by QOTSA for me. Better Living Through Chemistry being my favourite, so would have to be up there. Song for the Dead may be suitable. Either of those.

    The local choir has some fancy classic singer that does the Christmas mass and funerals, she would nearly put people to tears with her singing. I'd have her singing some song that gets really somber. At the end have that screaming ghost thing from those stupid power point and java games burst in.

    Fire by Jimi Hendrx while being cremated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    Johnny Cash - We'll Meet Again. All of his family join in on the final chorus and I swear to god, there wouldn't be a dry eye in the place after that.

    If not that then maybe Whipping Boy - When We Were Young or Nick Cave - Into My Arms.

    This thread came up a while back and someone suggested this -

    Song starts at 24 seconds!

    I think it's called "the breakfast machine" by Danny Elfman.

    Imagine the look on their faces :D

    It'd be grief mixed with complete and utter confusion. Probably hushed whispers of 'are they playing the wrong song?' etc. Hilarious!!

    I'd probably have that song 'Dont you forget about me' like they played in the end of that family guy episode where peter poses as a kid in meg's school.

    yeah?

    Yes, and the played the song at his funeral.
    Then the board made a forum out his posts for his family.

    Have to be Glen Hansards version of Britneys Hit Me Baby One More Time.... not a dry eye in the house...
