Music to Die for
A friend of mine died recently and his family asked me to help with the music for the service; we had a lot of fun aaand it helped us all.
So here it comes: What would you like at yours?
For me it's "Shine On You Crazy Domond", Pink Floyed:as the people enter
and " Sympathy For The Devil" Rollong Stones as they leave.
It might sound a bit morbid,it isn't, have fun with it.

Both your choices are ok in my book seaker...but I have some "buts"
But...what if Great Grandma is there and has her hearing aid activated? Awwwww, com'on...you know she'd bitch!
But...
But...
OK...so I can't think of any more buts at the moment (and I have to say that all memorials are personal tributes and each loved one has to choose his or her own ideal way)...
But I just feel like I have to say "but"!
So very sorry to hear of your loss hun! My deepest sympathies to you and the family!
*hugs*
*hugs*
And *rock on* and see my sig. for mine!

I've always thought Sympathy for the Devil is a great song to play....as far as mine, it'd probably be "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC...LOL

Hymns for me... sung by a mixed quartet.
"I Know That My Reedemer Lives"
"Oh, My Father"
"Nearer My God, To Thee"
HE knows which hymnbook to find these songs in.

I second Eros in Sympathy for the Devil. On the same theme, I think Devil went down to Georgia would be good. I can't dance from Genesis (I've always like that song...and it's be even more appropriate then), Satriani's Surfing with the Alien, and finish it with Queen's The Show Must Go On.
I want a party. I don't care if you're happy to have known me, or happy to see me go, but live it up for me :-)

Music to die for
What about ' A Shogun Farewell' - a haunting melody which conveys everything!

This probably sounds odd but I have one song that I would liked played on my wedding day and when I die, What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. I always get a tingly feeling when I hear that song.
