Weird. I dont like this chap at all. But this reminds me of why we're invited here.

I can see this playing as the flames lick over my sad bones!

BTW - Dont listen to this if even slighly down. Seriously.

Reminds me of hell!

Tom Jones. Skip to 2:00 if in a hurry.

This.

It is just so full of emotion. One of the greatest tracks, ever.

Good call 🙂

I'm not sure what would bring me the greater happiness, the finality or having lived a life with those I love

Going underground the jam.

I know of this actually happening. It was re-told to me as something that lightened a sombre reflection but I thought it was a probably an off hand joke that got remembered and acted upon. Might've worked though.

I try not to think about my own funeral. Surprisingly.

edit> I am such a cynic. Further editing has occurred.

I played this to myself before my grandad's funeral and it helped, so, it's going in mine.

And possibly this.

Just because it seems appropriate, until it all kicks off... I have a nice image of them turning up the volume for the quiet bit, and then the powerchords kicking in and the whole congregation hitting the roof.

This is pure narcissism. You're in a box. And still you want control? A funeral is for the people left. Let them do what they want. Really.

Hey, it's my big day, and sure it's for the people left but if they're there to remember me then my choices should do the job. It's not like we're making requests off the DJ here, hopefully these are songs that mean something to people.
