"Yesterdays" by Switchfoot, or "Into the West."

Or if I'm feeling kind of mischievous when I die, I'll steal my sister's idea and play "So Long And Thanks For All The Fish" from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. :D That one actually sounds like the most fun, but it's probably not something I would actually do.

I would like something happy.. a not-so-sad song to be played at my funeral, so people also get the chance to look back on the happy moments in my life. And I think Bill Wither's Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone is just perfect. Even though the lyrics is somewhat melancholy the song always makes me happy. :-)

I'd like something that would make people just be like, "Really? Why would you play that?"

Amazing grace (to the tune of Gilligan's Island)
Mama - My Chemical romance
O Death (just because it's an awesome song) - Jen Titus

Considering my attitude towards life, there can be no greater song to play in my funeral than....

"Hell in a Handbasket" by Voltaire


I'm goin to Hell,
in a handbasket.
It's a Bohemian Rhapsody.
Oh, Galileo, mama mia, scaramouche, scaramouche.
Oh, Beelzebub's got a devil put aside for me.

I'm goin to Hell, in a handbasket.
With my flesh they'll make a feast.
I'm gonna be there in that number.
That's 666 the number of the beast.

Hmm.. I would like my favourite songs on my funeral, so people remember the real me.

I have a lot of favourite songs, but if I really had to make a selection..

Citizen Erased by Muse. It speaks for itself.
Anywhere by Evanescence. Beautiful!
And probably a My Chemical Romance song and another Biffy Clyro song. O, and the Strokes!
Aaargg I can't choose!

Well.. hopefully I got a long time to think about it.

Biffy Clyro are an amazing band. I would totally play "Machines" at my funeral.

Yes that song is beautiful! But I think I'd go with something like 57. I just love that song. And when they play it live it's even more amazing!

I now know what song will definitely be played at my funeral. I totally forgot about it, but I just found it on Youtube again.

Joe Hisaishi - One summer's day

Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi from Carmina Burana, because it is just so epic! Which works, cause I don't want people to have a funeral for me, I want them to have a huge party instead. And "Don't You Cry" by Kamelot.

Time goes back - John Frusciante

Is the one I used to think I'd use when I was in my mid teens.
Still seems fitting years on.

I've always said I wanted Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" played, because its the first song I learned to play on guitar. Then top it off with Luke Bryan, not picky on the songs from him. Adding Keith Urban and Chris Young in the mix would be great too. Happy songs, not sad ones. And on another note...I've also said I want a little tv screen installed into the lid of the casket that would play Hugh Jackman movies on an endless loop until the batteries finally wear out so I go 'lookin at somethin good'.
