What song would they play at your funeral?

i actually have 4 songs to be played at mine

I'm a metalhead for the most part... but I believe it would be Mozart - Requiem - Lacrimosa and mabey followed by Beethovens 7th

Good ridence (Time of your life) - Green Day
Say hello to heaven - Temple of the dog
Into the mystic - Van Morrison
The show must go on - Queen


and for shits and giggles
Another one bite the dust - Queen

I am awaiting the sunrise
Gazing modestly through the coldest morning
Once it came you lied
Embracing us over autumn's proud treetops

I stand motionless
In a parade of falling rain
Your voice I cannot hear
As I am falling again

Devotion eludes
And in sadness I lumber
In my own ashes I am standing without a soul
She wept and whispered: "I know..."

We walked into the night
Am I to bid you farewell?

Why can't you see that I try
When every tear I shed
Is for you?



It would have to be a long funeral:)

Easy:

that's life...

Blow me......a kiss.

By Red Peters.

Or.....


Blow me (you hardly even know me)

Tupac: Hail Mary

Translation:
Almighty Freedom
Almighty freer of the soul
Be free
Walk with me
Through the golden fields
So lovely
Lovely

We regret our sins, but...
We sew our own fate and
Under my face I remain feeble
Under my face, I smile

Aaahh)

Even alone/afraid
Under my face I will be waiting

Run with me now soldier
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier
Run and play in the field with the ponies

Almighty Freedom
Almighty freeer of the soul
Be free
Be free
And imagine
Free with peace at last
It's lovely
It's lovely, this land
No one can believe or understand
How far I came just for my lovely family
I should have been there
with them when the world crashed down
But now they rest with me.

I'll never forget
How I felt that moment
I became free.

They're coming to take me away

Fine... if it must come in fours, I'll add on another three that I would want played for me:


(this one DEFINITELY needs to be played)



...and I can't think of any others. These two as well as The Unforgiven, however, would be very suiting.

Wait... I know another one they should play for me:

Stop spamming for this website.

There's no need to play any of that sappy, feel-good garbage... not at my funeral, at least.

If I'm dead, they can play songs that reflect my life... they can play classic rock 'n' roll, the only music in the world worth listening to.

They can also play those particular songs to sort of reflect my misery in life, and perhaps even in death.

Every year, without knowing it, we pass the anniversaries of our deaths. W.S. Merwin?? I can't recall the poet or the exact words. I will google it and get back to you. Knowing Merwin, it was probably, every year without knowing it, I have passed the anniversary of my death.
I will not have a funeral. I will be tossed upon a pile of bodies in some FEMA camp. I am on the red list. I have been on the terrorist watch list since at least 1998, because I have been onto this government for a very long time.
Nonetheless, I would like to play the songs that meant a lot to me over the years. You may find them strange. WHO CARES. This spans my miserable life.
A Summer Place, Moon River, My Cup Runneth Over, Pretty Woman, King of the Road, Get Back, Jesus Christ Superstar, Bill, The Age of Aquarius, Fred is Dead, Shaft, Hello, It's Me, Sweet Melissa, Midnight Rider, Baker Street, In the Air Tonight, etc.

I plan to have NO funeral.

My own is already written into my Living Will and I've already planned out my funneral





Just before my ashes are to poured out over my favorite Forest Grove. Where my first girl friend and I made well love for the first time.

She was killed by a drunk driver in 1984 (along with four of my best friends) during our Junior Year In High School . Unknown to our parents at the time she and I had fakeed our birth certificates and gotten married that year.

Dust in the Wind was playing on the car sound system when they dropped me off at my stop.. An I kissed her good bye and told my friends I'd see them in class that coming morning..

Never happened, a drunk driver doing 80mph threw a red light highway section.. killed them on impact...


My life story,
