I can't decide between KC's Epitaph and Monty Python's Always Look On the Bright Side of Life.

Hmm this is hard.
To make every pissed off I'd make them play the whole entire 4 part Tales from Topographic Oceans record.
For a laugh Cat Food by KC.
For Hysteria- Toccata by ELP.

I would definitely love someone to blast "Hammer Smashed Face" at my funeral.
 
In reality I'd probably like something by PT, Lazarus and Trains are both wonderful, as is Collapse The Light Into Earth, and then there is The Moon Touches Your Shoulder... Ah I could go on and on.
 
Definitely PT or maybe Floyd or quite possibly one of my favorites, "Storm" by Godspeed.
 
Or if you want to go total cliche I would pick Stairway To Heaven. LOL

Boy, what a topic to discuss after three weeks of brilliant, sunny holidays... Wink

I'd have to settle for "Funeral for a friend/Love lies bleeding" in the Dream Theater version.
Probably followed by Rush - Nobody's Hero.

On the other hand, to have a good piece of music, without much lyrical disturbance
"Firth of fifth" would be nice and then Focus' "Sylvia" when people leave me alone finally.

Hmmm.....I think "The Final Countdown" would be fitting.... and I arise from my coffin near the end, dressed as a space lord or something, and special effects make it look like I'm shooting fireballs out of my hands, and my animatronic body will cry out "Offer Your Souls Unto Me!!" afterwards. Now that would confuse people

There's a couple tracks by Neu that I'd likely want at my funeral.  I'd even ask them to play "For Absent Friends."
 
Though my ultimate choice, prog or not, is Moby's "My Weakness."
