What song would you want played at your funeral?

Post by downwithpants » Thu Apr 16, 2009 4:09 pm

apparently queen "another bites the dust" and the benny hill theme are popular, which seem wildly inappropriate to me, but go figure.

I think it'd all depend on the situation of my death, which I've already planned for in a few cases:

Death on the operating table - How to Save a Life

Death in my sleep - Help Me Make it Through the Night

Plane Crash - I Believe I Can Fly

General Purpose - The Entertainer or Don't Fear the Reaper

I've really just laid out that I want an ironic song somehow related to my death.

general purposes

sentenced - "lower the flags"

He's gone, he is dead
His remains upon the hearse ahead
As silently we wander though the mist
He's free

This is the end
Your journey's over, night descends
Below... Into the abyss
Farewell, my friend, you will be missed

Lower the flags
A good man has passed
He has reached the last of frontiers
Lower the flags
Down to half-mast
For again the world has taken a turn for the worse

He's done, he is dead
Six feet of earth upon his head
Now lay your wreaths
Upon the one who lies beneath

Although you're gone
In memories you shall live on
Asleep... In peace now rest
The weight of the world is off your chest

Lower the flags
A good man has passed
He has reached the last of frontiers
Lower the flags
Down to half-mast
For again the world has taken a turn for the worse

That morning light I'll always remember
And these August nights: cold as December.

OR if i turn into some sort of drug crazed junkie type.

nofx - "whoop's i od'd"

Whoops I odd, shortness of breath, call ambulance, tell my wife I love her
Error in judgement cut my life, no second chance,no guiding light
I never meant to cause you pain

I never thought Id be the one who took the fall
I got lost in the moment, assholes like to test the limit

Six minutes down, breathing machine, brain not feel right
The look on you is killing me, drowning in shame
But dont feel bad, cuz I never feard consequences
Hate regrets more than apologies

A year has passed, like photographs, my life is just
A scrapbook of old friends and faded memories
Looks like I pulled the rub out from under myself
The falls too much for me to recover from

Its been real fun but now I must say goodbye, Ill see you all at okie dogs

well mostly I just think that this kind of a thing should not be a fucking 'what are you listening to' spamthread.

My post was serious. Dango Daikazoku has this kind of impact on me where get depressed whenever I hear it. They played the song during all the sad/dramatic scenes in dramatic.
