What music do you want at your funeral?

Heya Gang.

It's a strange topic that came up with my wife and I and some friends.

I gotta say though, my wife nailed what I wanted. She knew it was between two songs, and I just told her I wanted both.

Love these songs. Few if any will agree, but does it matter? I just want to know what you want to have heard in your memory. I have two in this order.





Add to.

This is a pretty good tune...


Cheers - Dave

Everyone that knows me would agree.

Megadeth... Good Mourning. 😊

Lightened up with Van Halen's "Cabo Wabo"😉



Hey you 3. I can't link youtube. 😀

So I throw a George Harrison's "When my guitar gently weeps" at you..😉

With my Jackson, I could make this so metal 😁

I don't want a funeral, but when this life is over and I have been cremated, I want my ashes scattered where I asked my wife to marry me and I want Dust in the Wind blaring. I want everyone to smoke a big fat you know what and drink a Grand Marnier.

Everyone will clap when I'm found in a small room, 2 years after I died from a stroke.

"Thank god" they will proclaim...

I would pick all the bits and pieces I never ever would listen otherwise, and for which I'd said, I'd listen them over my dead body.

Holy Crap. I just physically went and shared that song with every family member that was awake. Thanks for an excellent contribution to the mental collection.

I've heard of the band, but not the tune.

My little brother knew it, but had forgotten about it.

Really enjoyed that.

I have not heard that.

Instrumentally, it is something that seemingly cannot be done in this day and age. That guitar is just screaming the underlying story.

It speaks to ones soul.

I will listen to it repeatedly, only because it was suggested.

That does mean something.

There is a different "Good Morning" that I dig.

Wow, I can't seem to find it...

Now this quandary will be on my mind for days.

This is my personal favorite version of that tune.

a reply to: DBCowboy

Dude, everybody knows that that song is way too real...

I still appreciate it nonetheless.

I would like to have Amazing Grace sung in the Cherokee language
at my funeral.www.youtube.com...

Wow. That is good music. I used to play the trumpet. Too damn bad I enjoy being a smoker.

I do still love marching band music. They bring it.

damn punctuation

That's weird - I was going to say "Old and Wise" by the Alan Parsons Project...sang live by Jessica Biel. I don't know if she can sing, but I don't care.

The Sound of Silence by Disturbed.

Mind I would have it Played with a Slide show made of the Pictures of My self I am taking everyday of me Holding a piece of cardboard. I have standing orders to my daughter to arrange the pictures in reverse order, changing picture every beat of the song, so that the me holding the cardboard grows younger as the song goes...

Then each photo will have memories put on them running forward from when I met my wife and step kids.

The Start Picture would be Me old holding a picture of when we first met.
The End Picture would be Me around 34 Holding what is the last picture of me with my family...
