Here's something morbid...
Have you already picked your funeral song?
As i mentioned in another thread mine is... The Cure - Treasure just change "I Loved Only You" to "I Loved All Of You" Anyone else planned this far ahead? :amused: |

No...
...'Cause when I'll be dead, I won't care anymore. I'll be dead. Because when you are dead, you are really rarely caring. You are pretty much very very dead. |

I second that only, funeral songs can have an impact. In my mate's funeral, the piano player played one song I'd never expect hearing in a church: A song written by one of our greatest street poets ever. That was intense. But as for me: I don't give a sh%#t. Let them play ABBA for all I care. I won't be there to listen.

Something as this will do, if I still will care, is another matter.

Well, it used to be Nine Inch Nails - Hurt. But since I'm feeling better nowadays a lot of songs could apply.
Some of Aphex Twins ambient works would do fine for example. First Parallel Stripes, in which people may contemplate or something, and when the coffin lowers Shiny Metal Rods, or Depeche Mode - Home. Hmm, I need to write that down one day. Sure, I myself may be dead, but I know what impact funerals and their songs (moods) can have on a person. When my mother passed they played Brian Eno's Prophecy Theme Made quite an impression on people, including myself ofcourse. It turned the whole ceremonial drag into something special.

Cool topic.
I think about it sometimes when i hear a nice song. Can think of only one now: Strange World by Iron Maiden. All about a person who passed on and is very happy in his strange new world  |
