I've changed my mind, I do want some music in my funeral. How about:

Camel - One of these days I'll get an early night

Syd Barret's last Floyd song Jugband Blues to me in a sense sais, "goodbye world, goodbye Floyd, goodbye all sanity!" and with all of that goodbye stuff i would choose that one or, probably Echoes, and even if no one likes it, that might be my song.

I think "The End" by the Doors is perfect funeral music.

I'd like to hear in my funeral: 

Opeth - Death whispered a lullaby

KC - Epitaph

Mago de Oz - Danza del fuego

Pink Floyd - wish you were here

Porcupine tree - hatesong (or maybe "halo" )

Jetrho tull - wind up
