Someone mentioned in another thread the song they wanted played at their funeral. I had Rockaria by the Electric Light Orchestra played at my dads cos he loved ELO and I thought the song fitted too.

I want Kiss Your Ass Goodbye by STYX played at mine.

Life isn't a dress rehearsal.

oh...no fair...i think about it nearly all the time...yeah, i am that depressive...but i can never make up my mind...cos i hear a new one and decide that...my funeral may just have to take a week with all the songs i want....ranging from Mad World; Gary Jules to Sweet songs to many other stuff.

but hopefully that won't be anytime soon. there's so many things i gotta do first.

maybe "Choir Girl" by Cold Chisel.. because it's a lovely song and I am a choir girl.. except the song itself is actually about abortion

Yes, I'm Morose, being a Nurse and seeing death gets you that way, or you burn out, do drugs, get fat or become a bitch nightmare from hell. I took the Mororse option cause I can use it when necessary to cope with utterly depressing situations. So, who likes which one the best?
Ah damn, they didn't come through, well this gives ya the genral idea.
Oh yeah, the last song is, "only Time" by Enya.
It's not metal, but it's soothing for the mourners.

"Before The Dawn" Judas Priest
"Cemetary Gates" Pantera
"Fountain" Sweet

And last, but not least, "Crazy Horses" The Osmonds, so everyone knows I'm riding the skies above them.

My husband hates that song. I don't care...... and he knows I am mean enough to come back and haunt those who seem to think it's ok not to honour my wishes. After I'm gone, he will have plenty of time to concentrate on himself.

Absolutely, positively NO DAMN "normal" funeral music.....

Mine'd be a song by a friend of mine, called Poisonous Love:

I'll return your jewellery and I'll return your keys
I'll give you back your records and your poxy DVDS
I'll give you back your innocence that you blindly gave to me
And I'll sink you to the bottom of the sea

I'll return your underwear that I once did slyly sport
As I challenged all the ladies at the local tennis court
Give you back your self-esteem and I'll set your spirits free
And sink ya to the bottom of the sea...

And I'll say fare thee well to my poisonous love
You have soured all the blood that once ran lively in my veins
Adieu! Adieu! To my poisonous love
In heaven or in hell I pray I won't see you again
If you ever had a single ounce of love for me
You never took the time to let it show...
But I've made you a bed beneath the boundless ocean
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into
the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)

I'll settle all your debts for you and I'll restore your name
I'll plant a tree with a sign that says that you didn't die in vain
I'll donate half my wages to your favourite charity
And I'll sink you to the bottom of the sea

I'll say a little funeral mass though noone will be there
I'll hum the death march, shoot my plastic pistols in the air
I'll make the kind of effort you would never make for me
And I'll sink you to the bottom of the sea...

And I'll say fare thee well to my poisonous love
You have soured all the blood that once ran lively in my veins
Adieu! Adieu! To my poisonous love
In heaven or in hell I pray I won't see you again
If you ever had a single ounce of love for me
You never took the time to let it show...
But I've made you a bed beneath the boundless ocean
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into
the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)

Noone will shed a tear for you...
Or pray that you'll be saved...
As I lower you so carelessly down in your salty grave
Nobody in the world will know...
It's only you and me...
When I sink you to the bottom of the sea
I'm gonna sink you to the bottom of the sea

And I'll say fare thee well to my poisonous love
You have soured all the blood that once ran lively in my veins
Adieu! Adieu! To my poisonous love
In heaven or in hell I pray I won't see you again
If you ever had a single ounce of love for me
You never took the time to let it show...
But I've made you a bed beneath the boundless ocean
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)
Into
the boundless ocean you must go (you must go)

"Personally monsieur," said Poirot, "I don't give le fuck."

You shouldn't talk to me. Find better company. There's better people to know. You'll only end up like Rimbaud. Get shot by Verlaine...

i think my dad wants the entire discography of Elvis and a Freddie and the Dreamers Song that i have, in the space of 30 minutes, forgotten. i might medley Love Is Lie Oxygen and Co-Co (Sweet) for him since he's forever murdering them.

My Mum wants R.E.M.'s everybody Hurts...and i'm still changing my mind on it more often than i change my underwear.
