I think I'd have a few different played. Not sure exactly which, but one that must be included:

VDGG - My Room (Waiting For Wonderland)

 
I'll probably make a mix to be played at my funeral so there will be no excuses not to play them. Tongue
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

I'd probably want something by Warren Zevon, just for the satire. Perhaps "I was In The House When the House Burned Down" or "Play It All Night Long"
Beauty will save the world.

I think I like the idea of a mix cd, because there's a few I'd like.
VdGG-Refugees
DT-A Change of Seasons
King Crimson-21st Century Schizoid Man (some final torture for all my relations)
and then to liven things up:
Europe-The Final Countdown

you know what, forget about the mix CD, I think I'll try to have a benefit concert for my dead self where everyone plays songs of my choice.

That song played when I was born! Well, right after Also Sprach Zarasthura by Strauss.Wink

But seriously, probably something uplifting like Satisfied Mind by Jeff Buckley or 'Emperor' - Adagio by Beethoven.

Or why not go all out with Ode to Joy or Jupiter played live, of course. That would be epic.
