haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 My buddy has made me promise that whenever he dies, Metallica's "Unforgiven" will be played at his funeral. He's an odd guy. I'll take having "Dust in the Wind" played at mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 I actually have a full list of songs I want played my wake and/or funeral I carry around with me at all times in my wallet. "Amazing Grace" on the pipes and "Freebird" are on there, plus an assortment of White Zombie, Slayer, and The Misfits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 I had a short list, but the only one I can remember off of it is Johnny Cash's cover of "In My Life" by the Beatles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob_barron 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 I've been listening to that song a lot recently, great stuff. I would pick Free Bird but Elizabethtown already used it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob Anybody 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 Also, as far as popular music, I always though "Freebird" would make a pretty good funeral song. Seconded. Although 'Riders on the Storm' or 'When the Music's Over' would have to get in there somewhere, just because I want to have at least one Doors song at my funeral.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 It's been ordered of my girl and my family that when I die, my hearse is to have speakers on it that play "The Peter Gunn theme" as they take me to the grave. On repeat. As for in the funeral home, fuck I'm going with "My Way" by Elvis. I like it. And "In the ghetto" doesn't work since I don't live in the ghetto.

Bob Barron, you're from Ontario and/or New York. You're not going to be buried to "Freebird," if you're indeed following up other people's "at my funeral, play" posts.

Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 At the cremation, 'Light My Fire'. It is my favourite song, though. I'm in a Kinks mood just now so I'll go with 'Days' and 'Waterloo Sunset'. 'European Son' to finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 "Wish You Were Here" is probably a pretty good one. Not the shitty Incubus song. I want "The Most Exalted Potentate of Love" to be played at my funeral. Tom Waits' "Misery is the River of the World" would be good for a larf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
