Father Ted Posted 8 April 2009 Share Posted 8 April 2009 My dad has always said that he wants us to play 'Highway to hell' at his funeral and for everyone to turn up in flowery shirts and to get pissed and have a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Smuts Posted 19 November 2009 Share Posted 19 November 2009 I've been re-listening to a lot more Elliot Smith recently and i have to say 'A Fond Farewell' has to be the perfect funeral song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Honcho Posted 19 November 2009 Share Posted 19 November 2009 I'd probably go for Cavalleria Rusticana by Mascagni But this would be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AoWW Posted 19 November 2009 Share Posted 19 November 2009 Pink Floyd - Brain Damage, or Comfortably Numb, depending on mood. (I'm sure I'd somehow be able to communicate my wishes to those that are suitable 'attuned'!) A friend of mine opted for Crowded House, Don't Dream it's Over. Much as I'm not a big Crowded House fan, it was very moving and seemed 'apt'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 20 November 2009 Share Posted 20 November 2009 It's a funeral, not Live Aid. The main stage (or altar or whatever) headliners looks good but not sure about some of the support being lined up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Posted 20 November 2009 Share Posted 20 November 2009 It's a funeral, not Live Aid. This remark just had me in stitches. The person across the office block from me is now staring at me gone out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 20 November 2009 Share Posted 20 November 2009 You could always opt for Nelly's "It's getting hot in here" at a Cremation. Personally I'd like Everlong by the Foo Fighters, Sandman by Metallica or Nevermind by Nirvana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
