I think it was Frankie Boyle who said he'd have 'If you don't know me by now - Harlod Melvin and the Blue notes' and I can't think of anything better than that.
Don't think I'll have a funeral, I won't be there anyway but it seems like a massive waste of money and unless something changes drastically before I croak there would be limited appeal. I have a pretty small circle of friends and a small family, I can see the point for massively popular people, but I'm fine with just being gone.
Should I stay or should I go by The Clash
that's my choice - as log as they agree to pause the conveyor!
If not then "It's getting hot in here" by nelly
I think I'm an alright guy...todd snider
One for the sleeper, Catriona McKay
As an agnostic I’d like Road to Nowhere by Talking Heads.
Was a theme tune to Design and Tech A level as we all hummed it driving Mr Skinner mad.
Fire in the disco, fire in the gates of hell!
An old work friend had flight of the valkyries played as he was carried into the church
raised a few smiles, which he would have loved
It's over 5 mins so maybe not as I'd want the full tune and it needs to be played on a good system not the crackly bush crematorium speakers with the burst paper cone that never gets replaced
I went to a friend funeral many years ago where they played some of his favourite songs.
If I die tomorrow, these will be the order of my funeral songs.
1. Carpenters - Solitaire (Used to pay Solitaire but now I play Tetris)
2. Carpenters - Goodbye to love (or second choice - Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy)
3. Metallica - Unforgiven
4. The Prodigy - Narayan
5. Europe - Final Countdown
4'33" by John Cage
Nice, I see what you did there! 👌🏻
There’s really only one song that I specifically want played, and that’s ‘Prayer in ‘Open ‘D’ ‘, by Emmylou Harris - it’s an absolutely beautiful song, about loss and regret, sung by one of the best singers of my generation.
'I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts'
maybe as your coffin sinks into the charnel pits of eternal damnation 😂😂😂
Id definitely want my funeral to be a party, so one of the tracks played would have to be “Energy Flash” by Joey Beltram 🥳

I’ll be dead so not fussed, body is heading to medical science and mum/bro are fine with that
