"...This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway, oh no, this is the road to h3ll..."

I don't want "Loser" by Beck

How about the Halleluyah corus from Handle's Messiah! Could be taken several ways by the mourners...

For cremations: "Going down in a blaze of glory" or "Feeling hot, hot, hot"

Try this one

Two Jethro Tull

Too old to rock and roll to youg to die

From a deadbeat to an old greaser

" Run to Paradise"  The Choirboys

"Stone Cold"      Jimmy Barnes

"Down Under"    Men at Work

"Hey, thats no way to say goodbye" Lenny Cohen

goodbye my lover by james blunt, amazing emotional song from his current album

Thanks Dave.... perfect timing! I needed to cry my heart out and that song was the perfect medicine.

"Hey, thats no way to say goodbye" Lenny Cohen

Excellent choice...

My way for sure but vocals by Alexlah (as a surprise).

A prerecorded tape/cd where I thank all people comming to check if I am really dead and last but not least, The promised land by Joey Smooth.

The promised land is a house/dance song goes something like this:

And when the angels from above, coming down and spread their wings like doves.

When we walk, hand in hand, sisters, brothers we make it to the promised land.

Roughly on 125 BPM

I know is old school house but who cares on that day.

Have a good time all preparing for the last day people can see you.

KR,

Alex

This is a tough one as one doesn't pick such songs so much as those that knew they do. But after some thought I came up with a few.

Sarah Mclachlan song like Angel

Nessun dorma performed by Luciano Pavarotti.

Beethoven's Moonlight sonata.

Into The West performed by Annie Lennox

Danny Boy played on pipes.

I can only think of maybe five people who would come to my funeral and I wouldn't want them to be sad over my passing. So, it's kinda of hard to pick a song that would be apporiate. They also know me very well, so if any thing they'll just lit the box and watch in silence.

You are so beautiful........forgot the singer JO ?

Have I told you lately......Rod

Amacing Grace......

Thanks 4 the link lappami1

Great songs and good pics too

You can't always get what you want

the stones

You are so beautiful........forgot the singer  JO ?

Is that the Joe Cocker one?

Either:

"Always look on the bright side of life"

or

"The Last Will and Testament of Jake Thackray"

"The Last Will and Testament of Jake Thackray"

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

For those not in the know:

I, the under-mentioned, by this document do declare my true intentions,

My last will, my testament.

when I turn up my toes,

when I rattle my clack, when I agonise, I want no great wet weepings

No tearing of hair, no wringing of hands

No sighs, no lack-a-days

No woe-is-me's and none of your sad adieus.

Go go go and get the priest

And then go get the booze, boys.

Death, where is they victory?

Grave, where is thy sting?

When I snuff it bury me quickly then let carousels begin.

But not a do with a few ham sandwiches

A sausage roll or two

And "a small port wine please".

Roll the carpet right back

Get cracking with your old Gay Gordons and your knees up, shake it up, live

it up, sup it up

hel_l of a kind of a time.

And if the coppers come around

Well tell them the party's mine, boys.

Let best beef be eaten, fill every empty glass,

Let no breast be beaten let no tooth be gnashed.

Don't bother with a fancy tombstone or

A big-deal angel or a little copper flower pot

Grow a dog rose in my eyes or a pussy willow

But no forget-me-nots, no epitaphs no keepsakes

You can let my memory slip.

You can say a prayer or two for my soul then

But make it quick, boys.

Lady, if your bosom is heaving don't waste your bosom on me

Let it heave for a man who's breathing

A man who can feel, a man who can see.

And to my cronies you can read my books

You can drive around in my motor car

And you can fish your trout with my fly and tackle

You can play on my guitar,

And sing my songs, wear my shirts

You can even settle my debts.

You can kiss my little missus if she's willing then but - no regrets, boys.

Your rosebuds are numbered

Gather them now for rosebuds'sake.

And if your hands aren't too encumbered

Gather a bud or two for Jake.

My choices as before :-

“Come up and see me to make me smile” – Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel

If “no have” in Thailand then Sarah the Bright- One, “Whiter Shade of Pale”, since she has 16 Vestal Virgins singing as a choir in the background of that song.

"Comfortably Numb” also would sounds nice by PF.

Nice Fred OP BTW

Yours truly,

Kan Win
