I was reading an article this morning about how people are choosing pop songs to be played at their funeral. There was a thread recently about what we'd like played at our own funeral. How about a clever ending for someone else?

The two mentioned in the article were

"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go."

and

"Another One Bites The Dust"

Now I KNOW you guys can do better than THAT.

Come on. Show me what you've got in terms of creativity. And try to keep it lighthearted and non-gory. No "Love Lies Bleeding" by Elton John.

I've always thought Talking Heads' "Once In A Lifetime" was good funeral music - "This is not my beautiful house! This is not my beautiful wife! Man, how did I get here?" I could only do it if my wife was already gone, since she is a beautiful person, but I just love those lyrics. I want people laughing a little, crying a little, singing a little. -Kirk
stones - "you can't always get what you want"

dylan - "the times, they are a'changing" ; "blowing in the wind"

bowie - "ashes to ashes"

bruce - "dead man walking"

jane siberry - "calling all angels"

daniel lanois- "sleeping in the devil's bed"

"Fire and Rain" by James Taylor. Let's make them all cry their eye out when JT hits the "... but I always thought I'd see you one more time again" line!
