What THREE songs would you like played at your funeral?

[Lord Bracknell]

recently I have been erring towards burial at sea

I know a guy who was buried at sea ... "for the sake of all you folk who promised to dance on my grave".

Maybe Thatcher should consider this option?

 

[seagully]

Videotape- Radiohead

La Mer- Nine Inch Nails

Last Goodbye- Jeff Buckley

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

I would go in to the traditional GOSBTS then I'd have

In My Life - The Beatles.

Everybody Hurts - REM

You''ll Never Walk Alone -Jerry & The Pacemakers (and hope everybody sings along, in which case somedody better turn up!)

And I'd go out to the jazzed up version of GOSBTS that get's played when we win.

I did attend a funeral a while back and they played Reach by S Club 7 as they released some balloons, quite moving.

Who cares? I won't be able to hear them.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Deacon Blues - by Steely Dan
Young Guns Go For It - by Wham!
TSOP (The Sound of Philodelphia) - by MFSB

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

As you say GOSBTS
and definitely
The Congregation - Softly Whispering I Love You

Other than those two I've not thought, but maybe...
Nick Drake - Time Has Told Me
Johnnie Allan - Promised Land

I was kind of joking with the being buried at sea bit...but you do make a very good point...I am sure that Maggie is more than a little worried about what might happen to her grave after she dies, perhaps cremation and firing the ashes into space might be the best option.

I was wondering if it might be possible to request that they played the Hokey Kokey when they are putting me in my coffin!

But that could take hours!

Forever Young - Alphaville
I Ran - Flock Of Seagulls
Jerusalem

 

[Seagull Fred]

This may sound a little gay but oh well : 1) R.Kelly - Remix to ignition, 2) The Offspring - Gone Away and lastly Smack my bitch up, by the prodigy x

 

[Acker79]

living in a box - living in a box
I'm still standing - elton john
I'm on fire - Bruce Springsteen (I want to be cremated)

I seriously would like this playlist. I want my funeral to be a jovial shindig. I want people to recount funny stories/experiences of me, jokes we shared etc.

You should choose Shiny Happy People by REM.

Welcome to the jungle - Guns & Roses id ask them to play as they lower my pink casket under the confederate/nazi banner i would insist upon being aloof whilst i am lowered into the ground, being a Gay white supremacist from Littlehampton n'all.
