Paperboy Posts: 29 Joined: 24 Jan 2008 | Highway to Hell - ACDC ^Just for laughs. In all honesty I'd want something a bit mellow like 12:51 by The Strokes. Or perhaps something more... vocal like Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes, or Helicopter by Bloc Party. |

Some choices would be: "I'm Dying" Other choices include: I just wanted to throw a complete figurative curve-ball, "Hell", by the Squirrel Nut Zippers (look it up). "Don't Stop Me Now" - QUEEN "Hide and Seek" - Imogen Heap And lastly, Eclipse of Time By Nobou Uematsu, from Lost Odyssey: |

Paperboy  Posts: 19 Joined: 10 May 2008 | I'll sleep when I'm dead - Bon jovi I'm going to stop their, but i could go on. I'd be happy with any pun related title :D or just for kicks, i'd go for the last 50 seconds of "Killing in the Name of" by Rage Against the Machine. Me and God would be hi-fiving each other watching that scene unfold :D |
Muckraker  Posts: 294 Joined: 9 May 2008  | Rage Against The Machine-Take the Power Back; kick arse song from my fave band ever. But at my funeral, I'd just have my entire MP3 played; it's effectively who I am. Edit: Excellent final choice there Le' Moog |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 640 Joined: 4 Feb 2008   | "Turning Japanese" by the Vapors I think that would give the attendants at least a little excitement in what will end up being a boring, droll few hours |

That is indeed The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly theme. |
Paperboy Posts: 49 Joined: 9 Apr 2008 | i just thought of something. have a mate do a speech, then at the end, the pastor would take the stage and randomly throw in "he's not really dead, this is all a set up to fool people about his secret identity. he's actually..." (leans forward) "... a power ranger." and then we'd play the power rangers theme, except me, cuz i'm dead. then i'm rickrolling the lot of them. then we have the duke nukem carry out theme. |

What about "Where It Never Rains" by VAST? "We Will Meet Again" is a good choice. My pick would have to be "The Weeping Song" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds "This is a weeping song |

Mmm Vast *drools*, though i think the 'Untitled' Track on Vasts self-titled album would be appropriate for me, i don't think i'd want lyrics in my funeral song.
Yes.. That would be glorious if you could couple it with some coffin chase-scene antics and sexy lingerie wearing mourners!!! |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 614 Joined: 13 Nov 2007   | If I couldn't pick Still Alive? Well, I'd definitely go with Psycho Killer. |
Paperboy Posts: 13 Joined: 29 Feb 2008 | I think as they carry my coffin out of the building they should play Extreme Ways by Moby. /nod |
Anonymous Source Posts: 9 Joined: 12 May 2008 | Hmmm.... I would like either 'Winter' by Joshua Radin or maybe that song which goes "Well, life is like a river, blah blah, I forgot the lyrics" |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 71 Joined: 16 Apr 2008 | Since I intend to freeze myself down, then become a cyborg and live forever, I will not have one. But in the case of a guy in blue spandex cybernetics sporting a buster cannon with increadible unstoppable power to stop my regim of goodness, I'd go with either "Find the way" or "Fields of Hope" OR "Mizu no Akashi" http://youtube.com/watch?v=cjWviIh0vIU http://youtube.com/watch?v=laiu7IFwDQs&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=ltUtlWshvk0 |

Press Junketeer  Posts: 420 Joined: 27 Mar 2008 | probs something by the cure. I love mad world but angst is not what a funeral song should be it should be about loss or moving on. |

Winter by Joshua Radin as my last tribute to Scrubs. Or April Come She Will by Simon & Garfunkel.
The first funeral i ever went to, they played All You Need is Love. It was pretty powerful, hundreds of people were there and they encouraged us to sing.
