Song you want played at your funeral?
 

I know this is a rather morbid topic, lol, but is there a specific song you want to be played at your funeral/wake?

Perhaps it's a sad number, or something that epitomises you? Or maybe it's something more upbeat to try and cheer people up?

I personally have never thought about it. I'm not sure, to be honest.

Spice Girls - Goodbye.

I love the song. Ginger was my favourite Spice Girl aswell -- I know the song wasn't about her (so they say) but it's in memory of her.

I hate talking about funeral songs =|
My boyfriend sent me a song his favourite song of all time [Great Gig In The Sky - Pink Floyd] and then was like ''it's my funeral song'' and I was just like 'don't. you'll make me cry =('

AS FOR ME
I'm not sure.
Maybe Radiohead - Street Spirit.

Countdown theme tune.

Seriously. Everyone thinks I am joking but I have told both my parents and my boyfriend that when I being cremated that as the curtains close on the furnace the conundrum song plays.

That, and "Could it be Magic" by Take That.
Everyone's invited. Party of the year.

Lmao Lauren that sounds well fun :thumbs: my mum and dad want to have a happy funeral i think my dad wants something like madness - house of fun lol me? I like to keep mine sad and depressing :bigsmile:

DJ Sammy - heaven [slow version] and Sinead O Connor - Nothing compares to you :thumbs:

If you want your guests in tears may I suggest...

Sarah McLachlan - Angel.

Bound to leave them in distress for days.

Oasis - Champagne Supernova
Youth Group - Forever Young (Ironic much?)
South - Paint the Silence

"Hot Hot Hot" by Arrow at my cremation.

I really wish I could witness my own funeral to see who is only there for the nibbles at the wake ect. lol

Ooh. Hallelujah by Imogen Heap that would have everyone bawling their eyes out; Listen:

lol I can imagine the reactions of the family. :laugh3:

Anyway for me I want something ****ing depressing like I want everyone to cry. I hope they will because they will miss me. If they won't I will really be pi$$ed off.
The song would be The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony.

Wind Beneath My Wings would be good.

Had me fallin asleep after a minute, it would'nt make me cry but it would stop me going to any other funerals thats for sure.
If I played this till the end, I'd probably end up at my own sooner too.

Nice story....:rolleyes:

On a sub-topic of this, what do you reckon is the most inappropriate song to play at a funeral? :tongue:

[Just so we don't feel too depressed]

I'd say Mousse T - Horny?

Disco inferno by The Trampps at a cremation?

Sings "Burn baby burn"!

Craig David - Hot stuff. :laugh:
Simple Plan - Happy Together. :shocked:
Edit: The Fray - How to Save a Life :laugh2:

Deeper Underground by Jamiroquai?

Crucify Yourself - Fozzy.
:spin2:

That is total BS Hallelujah is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and is very moving. This Imogen Heap version by not be by fave (jeff buckey will always own it sorry) but she is a wondeful singer and has keept it nice and simple.

Nope, and you can bully me all you like with your BS approach to a differing oppinion, but this version of the song is indeed SH*TE
