Diagonally Parked in a Parallel Universe |
At my best mate's funeral he had chosen his own songs, as he had a terminal illness. But, as his coffin was on the conveyor belt about to go through the curtains his music stopped and the crematorium reverted to their own music.
He went through the curtains to Bach's Air On A G-String - the tune that was used in the Hamlet cigar adverts. I said to a friend "I see they've struck a light for him". |

"Queen : Another one bites the dust  "
My late husband wanted that at his funeral. The celebrant he was planning it with pointed out a few people (namely his parents) night find that a difficult one at his cremation |

New York by Frank Sinatra (Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today) and no doubt it gets played accidentally when the wrong track gets played in stead of My Way
I will survive |

I can’t believe how long I scrolled until I got to “I will survive” haha. That was my first thought.
Much of this list should be played at mine but most importantly, “always look on the bright side of life”. It is a requirement at mine. Ha. - Mrs Cagey.
Mr, Cagey (I am fairly certain) just hopes for me to do stunts with his corpse like flying over the room and such. I would oblige, that’s what makes us an excellent couple. Then I assume he wants a fist fight between some distant relatives as that happened at the last one he went to and he was really amused. |

The wrong Robin Hood theme song (the old TV series one has been played a few times at funerals(Robin Hood Robin Hood riding through the Glen) instead of the more modern Bryan Adams Everything I Do I Do It For You) |

One of my friends had it at his. He was well into mx and was always being played at races, he had that kind of humour. His parents were fine with it. All of us wore mx gear and had a smile at his final choice xx |

I used to have ‘Alive’ by Pearl Jam as my ringtone (the chorus if you know the song)
My Ex was terrified by the fact that my phone would go of anytime we went to a funeral  |

I heard of one where the deceased had been active in the local pantomime..
The organist, a friend, as the curtain closed broke from solumn music to a medley of songs associated with pantomimes... Everyone clapping and singing...
It was something that had been promised.. |
