Think of something that you want to represent you and your life, something that you want others to remember you by.

But it's YOUR funeral, not theirs. If you are a true Prog fan and the music means alot to you, then playing it at your funeral would represent your life - not theirs.
Whether they like it or not, it doesn't matter.

Hey maybe we could give reasons?
Or is that too deep for a forum?

In another similar thread I wrote: "Alan's psychedelic breakfast", especially the part 'Rise and shine', maybe I should rise, then.

Now seriously, I'd prefer Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez - Adagio" or Wagner's "Liebstod für Tristan und Isolde". But I have no idea of what my people would prepare for my farewell.

PFM - Appena un po (wow...this song brings me to heaven !)

Genesis - Seven Stones (powerful song...the chorus is so amazing...represent me well)

Genesis - Dancing/can-utility (except Supper's ready, two of the greatest songs by my favorite band)

 

So many more.......
