RUSHHEAD666 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 We've done this before but let's start out fresh! Just incase I die before my wife I just wrote down the three songs I want played at my funeral. 1. "Stars Die" Porcupine Tree 2. "You Can't Kill Rock and Roll" Ozzy Osbourne (After all as many of you know rock and roll truly is my religon!) 3. "Old And Wise" Alan Parsons Project An anagram for "FUNERAL" is "REAL FUN."

drbirdsong Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name Del Amitri - Driving With The Brakes On Rush - A Rush song that changes from time to time. Don't press me on which song because I have no plans to die anytime soon, but I do want a Rush song at my funeral while folks cry over my ashes.

danielmclark Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The funeral isn't for me, it's for my loved ones. It's their time to grieve, so whatever arrangements get made, it's for them, not me. If it were up to me, there would be no funeral - just dispose of the body in the most inexpensive way possible (I don't want anyone wasting money on something lavish), but I know my wife will want a ceremony. Songs... I guess my wife will want to know, so here's three, in order: Rush - Available Light Bill Haley & The Comets - (hat tip to the British comedy Red Dwarf for that idea ) Louis Prima - I'll Be Glad When You're Dead You Rascal You See, I start off a little serious and get more and more ridiculous. Fun! Levity! I have not yet decided if I want her to play One Hundred Years by The Cure, and I'm not sure she'd go along with it if I did (The song opens with the line, "It doesn't matter if we all die!" ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddyLeeRoth Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I've already requested they play VH's Somebody Get Me A Doctor during the service and Light Up The Sky when everyone is filing out. It'll be tremendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
