"C'Est La Vie" - ELP!!!!!
You can blow out a candle,
but you can't blow out a fire
once the flame begins to catch
the wind will blow it higher

Peter Gabriel, from Biko

The End - The Doors

Not an orriginal song for your funeral song, but it's one of the best to play when something important to you comes to an end.
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
Its astart
What we need is awareness we cant get careless
Mental self defensive fitness
Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be

A morbid subject never-the-less my picks at the moment are:

  • Funeral For A Friend - Elton John
  • One - U2
  • Who Wants to Live Forever - Queen ( a real tear-jerker to be saved for last!)

 

"Music is the Wine that fills the cup of Silence"
- Robert Fripp

Then, as everyone is leaving the funeral:

"Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" - Monty Python. DEFINITELY!

"Always look on the bright side of death/Just before you draw your terminal breath," will gladden the hearts of my mourners! Whee hee.

Life is like an avantgarde play because tuna.

I was thinking something along the lines of "Kurt's Rejoinder" by Eno

That'll leave 'em all on a good note.
Go and listen to my music.
