What song played at your funeral?

[Doctor Carrot]

Thea Gilmour - 'I'll be holding your hand' in the hope that my children will feel that even when i'm not here i'm with them! Does that make me an over protective parent?!

No I think that's rather sweet but me personally I have to take the light hearted option. I may even throw in some mashup like 'Bill Gates Tampax Squat Party' by Shitmat.

Atmosphere by Joy Division at the actual cremation, If I Should Fall From Grace With God at the wake.

Although i do quite like the idea of having something really inappropriate like Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen.

Bit of a subject for me...
Smile please ..... Stevie Wonder.... Thinking Of You... Sister Sledge....
And songs by Marvyn Gaye,Aretha,Kanye West...

I did think about doing lots of sick ones as well to make my mates and kids laugh and do a voice over on some.... Terry Jacks,Elton John etc
But my son told me he didnt want people laughing at my funeral....Somehow i think they will anyway..

I'd like to have eye of the tiger. I'd like to have an old lady playing everything on the organ, with the first line sung by a lone choir boy. Then the whole congregation would erupt for the chorus.

But after that I'd like to have a song I actually like.. not really sure tho. maybe someone could do come on eileen as well.
