What song would you like to be played at your funeral?


Recommended Posts

I would like this one. It’s bit miserable but aren’t that what funerals are for.

If you want people to dress up in bright clothing to celebrate your life fair enough.

I would like to think people may be sad at  my passing ( I know that’s a provocative thing to say on Manx Forums)

Anyway in six months time I may have changed my mind. Perhaps still Nick Cave but “ Push the Sky away” or maybe “ Death Trip” by Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel. There’s so many I could choose but I think you’re only allowed one, otherwise any mourners would be there for ages.
 

Bollocks I’ve just noticed that this is the whole concert not just the one track that I wanted to post. I’ll try and rectify that!

The Cockney Rebel song has long been a favourite of mine too. I'm not really into all this casual clothes and rock song funeral music though. They should be serious occasions for sadness, respect and reflection. That's what a funeral is for. I've been to one or two that almost turned to farce.

I don’t want a funeral. An unattended simple cremation will suffice. If my family and friends want a later event to celebrate and reflect, fine. Their event, they can choose what, when, how and the music, if any. I shan’t be there.
