This ^^^. A girl sang it unaccompanied at the funeral of a friend of mine. He was 45, single, loved a smoke, a drink and the craic. Died at home on his own after suffering an aneurysm. When she sang this at his funeral it was so appropriate and breathtaking that I actually stopped breathing for a few seconds.

Don't know if I would want "funeral music" but if I had to choose maybe I'd either choose this

or maybe I'd rather have just a piano tune without any cheesy lyrics. I'm thinking decades into the future but ideally I'd like a grandchild of mine to play the piano. Something like this...

Niall...you do not want Rihanna played at your funeral

blaaarg, I don't know. I used to say "Waterloo Sunset" by the Kinks but that only really applies if I've lived a long, happy life and don't mind dying LOL

I think "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" would be amazing if I committed suicide (don't worry, I won't lmao, it just fits... I have such cheerful thoughts)

I guess Oasis' "Live Forever" is a bit of a cliché choice, and has something of a personal meaning (I was listening to it the last time I saw my brother), so that might be nice. I think I'll stick with Waterloo Sunset.
