Freebird – Lynrd Skynrd please .

If you don’t know me by now, Simply Red.

Band of Horses – the funeral?

If you don’t know me by now, Simply Red.

Oh, that’s good.

Lenny Kravitz – Are you gonna my way.

My dad chose Shine on you Crazy Diamond for his funeral music the &%$£@£%*. Now every time I play what is one of my favourite songs too, I think of him.

Already got mine picked

Welcome to the jungle, maybe.
I am the resurrection, possibly.

My missus wants this playing:

We can be happy underground.

No Surprises – Radiohead. Just to lift the mood a bit.

That or Ay ay ay moosey – Modern Romance

[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2xODjbfYw8[/video]

for me… Waterboys – “Spirit” and maybe “Whole of the Moon”

for her… “Ding Dong the Witch is Dead”

‘If You Don’t Know Me By Now’, to be played as the casket trundles away to be cremated, obviously 😉

Edit: ah, I see I was beaten to it!

Since I want to be barbecued and packed into fireworks; Black Sabbath – Into The Void. Because I’m a cheery **** like that. 😀

Followed by Drink to the Dead by Clutch at the wake.\m/

We’ve recently had my Granny’s funeral – she wanted birdsong / sounds of nature – Many remarked how nice it was . .

Is I am the resurrection a little presumptious?

The Tweets?

As my coffin is carried in:The Imperial March
Halfway through: ELO Wild West Hero
Reading of Ozymandias
At the end: Closing track from Flash Gordon.

Among all the jokey replies that is genuinely lovely.

Enter Sandman, live version.

” I want to ride my Bicycle………”

I’d request Bowie’s Lazarus…

…but I also want something suitably flippant that will raise a smile. Good call to the poster who suggested “Shine on you crazy diamond”.

I think the Happy Mondays’ Hallelujah might be in with a shout.

My wifes choice is Queen’s Another one bites the dust.

Save me, by embrace.

Ideally I’d like the curtains to open, coffin move forward then reverse as “Should I Stay or Should I Go” play.

“Movin on up” by Primal Scream would be good or “This Monkey’s Gone to Heaven”. Failing that “Dear God” by XTC.

Among all the jokey replies that is genuinely lovely.

I entirely agree.

Although I am not joking, I genuinely intend to have Killed by Death as I go through the final curtain. So long as I go before most of my mates (the Goths and Bikers particularly) it will give them one last giggle 😉

I have in my will that Alien Sex Fiend R.I.P and smells like S**T are to be played.

I want Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac “Need your love so bad” before a Humanist reading to anyone that can be arsed to turn up.[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtmW2ek7WkQ[/video]
My lad has been told in no uncertain terms, that despite what his mum says, AC/DCs Highway to Hell gets played as the curtains open.

A Design for Life – Manics. Lights to go up within 3 secs of last symbol crash.

My kids have had my specific orders for my funeral. Carried in to Stayin Alive by the Bee Gee’s and Disco Inferno by the Tramps as I get shoved into the oven.

Cherish by Kool and the Gang and Drink with Me from the Les Miserables soundtrack.

“Ellan Vannin”, just because I’m a Manxman and “Take Me To The Place” (Deacon Blue), because it’s like “Abide With Me” but even better, and with beautiful fretless bass.
If I have a headstone anywhere, then I’d like it to have a mountain hare on one side and a raven on the other.

I’ve let several people know I want ‘So Long, Fairwell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye’ at my funeral, just in case they outlive me.

I’m going for a bit of Elvis;

Return to Sender

Why would i care? and hold the bloody candle lit vigil as well.

It has to be this
