I've had to choose recently for a funeral and it really gets you thinking.
So if you had to choose a song to represent you or just one you love for your funeral ..... What would it be?
My step-father went out to "Swing low Sweet Chariot" & I always knew my Mum's choice "Rockin All Over the World" by Quo! And we honoured her wish.
I think I'd go for "Drops of Jupiter" by Train & " Wake Me Up" by Avicii. |

I'd choose the theme music from the Dave Allen show and insist on a coffin with two huge bumps on the top for my boobies. I'd also have it in my wishes that it's not a padre who officiates, but a stand up comedian dressed as one. The idea being he starts off playing it straight before subverting proceedings more and more. |

On the way out after my Funeral they will play this song I loved for years Freddie's music and this song with Montserrat just takes him to a another level in my eyes, And at night there will be a Big fireworks party and this song will be played to my family and friends. Barcelona Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballe . |

All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All you feel.
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All you save.
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy,
beg, borrow or steal.
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say.
All that you eat
And everyone you meet
All that you slight
And everyone you fight.
All that is now
All that is gone
All that's to come
and everything under the sun is in tune
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

They are dreadful. Live music works best. We did that for a friend and it was magical.

Is there a time limit to the tune?
If not maybe something like Act III of Die Walküre (Its about 70 mins and starts with "The Ride of the Valkyries"
If there is a limit maybe John Cage's 4'33" (of silence).
After all it will be my last chance to make a real and lasting impression...

Dont know if they are still going but there used to be a lot of folkies (i was 1) in Broseley. They had lots of bands, folk, blues, rock, and if I remember right 1 of the lineups was a deep south jazz band. We used to drink in the Cumberland Hotel Broseley...

"For my hubbys it would be-Breath ( our wedding song) by angles & Airwaves.. james blunts..goodbye my lover...
For mine it would be-same wedding song..& Hurt..johnny cash..my husband would also have slipknott-vimillion prt 2...
"
Goodbye my lover is a great tune - but ruined as something to be taken seriously thanks to Rob Bryden's uncle Bryn character in Gavin & Stacey.
Likewise If You Don't Know Me By Now as murdered by David Brent! |

Barcelona Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballe ."

"I've also chosen my funeral songs after being quite sick last year. When everyone is going in it will be 'she' by Charles aznavour it was number one the day I was born and I'm told it sums me up!. Then as everyone is leaving 'arms of an angel'.
Ernie the Fastest Postman in the west was number one when I was born, sure as hell won't be having that at my funeral! "
Ernie was a milk man not a postman and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west |

I am not having a funeral, too depressing, have decided to have a party a week before I chose to go.
Before illness changes me,
So many people hang onto life, although the quality has gone,
Luckily within the next 5 years we will be able to chose when we say goodbye, within 10 years it will be perfectly normal.
We have been able to decide when our pets go, so that they don't suffer, the sooner the law is changed the better.... |

"Mine are , Puff the magic dragon as still makes me cry , living in a box and morning has broken by cat stevens .
Puff the Magic Dragon by Marlene Dietrich is fantastic
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faDDATsY4_I"
I love Puff The Magic Dragon!
I've already chosen Mozarts Piano Trio 5. I would have Mozarts Requiem , which would sound amazing in somewhere like Westminster Cathedral, but as I will probably end up with a quick service in a Bristol Crem with the music being played on a cassette player I will stick with my original choice. |
