What Song Do You Want Played At Your Funeral?

The Macarena. No sense in ruining a good song for people with a shitty memory like a funeral

 

Since I can't have a funeral, please play this now:

You can have one if you want one

Going by the song title I was thinking of this one btw:

Yeah something completely different

 

no funeral for me, thank you very much.....

but this thread made me think of this song, which I always loved that Elton sang for Marilyn.......the tender tribute to those who are misunderstood is very deep here.

Well, I can't have my own, nor do I want it, or anyone elses, so... time to put on a track! :-D

The sound of medical instruments, as someone does scientific research on my dead body; or birds singing, and the wind blowing through the trees, in a distant secluded spot in which I find to die alone.

I prefer the latter song, but I guess the previous would indicate that my coming and going will have actually been of some benefit to someone or something.

Edit: I guess neither would technically be funeral songs in the conventional sense, but I can have whatever kind of funeral that I want, haha.

 

i really don't care what is done at "my funeral", since i won't be there anyway. only a dead empty shell that i had previously occupied. of more worth to worms and trees, then to any self which may then still exist of me. nor is there any great likelihood that any preference of mine will be observed in that regard anyway. as already mentioned, to the best of my understanding, those of neither of my parents were either.

 

Asmo's right, we can have our funerals if we want. As long as we're prepared to fake our deaths like I'minmyunderwear and turn up to our funerals incognito. :-D

I'm getting a big fake moustache. Really big. And dark glasses. I might even make a speech! I can't wait!

Well,I would like a funeral,with marching bands and dancing girls and jugglers and clowns and a magician and everyone has to come in fancy dress...and everyone has to get sponsorship to attend,with the proceeds going to a charity the undertaker decides on.......after all,he's put a bit of work in for this gig,so that's only fair. BUT,instead of dirges and hymns,everyone has to learn the lyrics to this,then sing along,before having a massive jello-fight as my coffin disappears through the curtains.

The sods won't forget MY funeral in a hurry....and it'll be a youtube super-hit!

[weeeeell....y'only get one funeral,so make it an OCCASION!] :clown:

Alternately - It just depends on how I die...I think.

i don't expect any more elaborate of a send off, then for my remains to tossed into the cheapest box the state can find, or reduced to ash in the cheapest oven.
having been in the military, they will probably stuff a little glass vial of my ashes in a wall in some military cemetary somewhere.
this will be of no great concern to my spirit.

i would like knights in white satin. to me it would make sense for the occasion. but again, this is a matter unlikely to be of any great concern.
