At the beginning of the service, when the coffin enters the audience chamber: Gnidrolog - Long Live Man Dead (not necessarily the whole song, until the 3:40 mark will be fine) At the end of the service: Oaksenham - Afterdeath Fantasy I think I leave other choices to my surviving dependants.

Ashes are Burning by Renaissance, obviously, followed by the theme tune to Happy Days.

I'll take the full Thick As A Brick to accompany my illegal funeral pyre in the middle of the Ardennes woods Sounds like an OK manner for this atheist pagan I am to leave this bloody world. I did hesitate between that and being buried 9ft Underground with the Careavan tune of the same name .

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

it’s never changed since I first heard it. My first choice for a funeral song is Jerry Cantrell’s beautiful cover of Willy Nelson’s “I’ve Seen All This World I Care to See”. 🖤

I want to go out to Electrolite by REM - for the last line sung solo.

I'm wondering what people have thought about in regard to the music for their own funerals, of course we won't be able to witness the event, so it is a bit of a fantasy as to how we'd like it to be. I'd also be interested if anyone has any readings that they'd like. Anyway, so far my music choices would be: Hymns Amazing Grace The Day Thou Gavest Lord Has Ended Other Music Going Home by Annie Haslam (at the beginning of the service) The Great Gig in the Sky by Pink Floyd (for the committal) As for readings, I don't know yet.
