Your funeral songs!

[Winkle]

Come on then, we have all thought about it, when the grim reaper taps you on the shoulder and tells you "times is up fella" What I wont to no is what song are you going to have when thay carry in the church and back out again?

When they carry me in I want "Geoffrey osboure"wings of love (sentimental value only)
When they pull the curtains closed I want "Oasis live forever"
Hopefully everyone will be blubbing by then.

That's a big gay funeral song :D

Why not go all the way and plump for "It's raining men?"

As the vicar cranks up the bass on the church PA system, I expect the assembled throng to use their giant foam hand thingys to great affect alongside "Another one bites the dust" by Queen.

To Live Is To Die - Metallica.

 

[Yer Blues]

Songs at my funeral: "Many Rivers to Cross" by Jimmy Cliff, "Angel" by Aretha Franklin, and I've always had this fantasy that some beautiful, tearful woman would insist on "You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" by Gladys Knight.

I've burnt the CD already, chillout mixes of Saltwater by Chicane and Cafe del Mar by Energy 52 but finish on Hey Baby by DJ Otzi on the way out, if any of you attend you will know what to do.

Three Lions - have mentioned this various times to my wife but she doesn't take me seriously, therefore it'll have to go in my will.

Barring that, anything by Robson and Jerone (sp) to get the party started (?)
