What would be on your funeral playlist? Myself, something from Elvis Costello... maybe The Angels Wanna Wear my Red Shoes, or Living in Paradise, but hopefully not Accidents Will Happen.
Cowboy Junkies, definitely. Thousand Year Prayer, or Miles from Our Home. Or Draqging Hooks if I'm feeling particularly morbid when I make my will and arrangements. -------------------- Studies show reality is the leading cause of stress amongst those in touch with it.
'Dead, Dead, Dead' from South Park's Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics 'Dead Man's Party' by Oingo Boingo 'Hell in a Handbasket' by Voltaire and end it with 'So Long, Farewell' from The Sound of Music
Funeral? What funeral? I plan to live forever, even if it kills me. If that should happen, the "The Ride of the Valkyries" by Richard Wagner would be a fitting send off.
beethoven's 7th symphonie would be good, for a depressing meaningful funeral. highway to he11 for a fun funeral. ps For those of you who do not know Beethoven's 7th second movement is in my opinion the best peice of music ever written. -------------------- Curiosity was framed; ignorance killed the cat.

I have always thought so, and that I was alone in me thinking. (It's nice to know I'm not alone in the world... boo hoo... ) Also, Mahler's fourth -- particularly the last movement.

Mr. Snaggy, Hello! Do not worry! No offence! I was not offended by your topic. No Sir-e-e-e! I really thought it was funny. With what has happened to me, I figg'rd I should take some time and really think about those songs be-cause I might need them soon. So I did! My sister told me she thought the list was really good and I must have thought about it a real long time. And I did! I hope your friend's Mom had time to say good bye,...
