What Song do you want playing at your Funeral?

His Dunmer master's laundry, if he knows what's good for him.

Re: What Song do you want playing at your Funeral?
I was thinking either
But then you can't beat a bit of Purcell.
Bit long, but then, that's not my problem, lol.

I am going to go away and think about it.

‘Purple Rain’ Live at the Super Bowl. And The Source ft Candi Staton ‘You Got The Love’. A third to be decided.
Plus probably either I Vow To Thee My Country or Guide Me O Thou Great Redeemer for stirring audience interaction.
Potentially the Last Post played by one of the Royal Marine band, and the possibility of Highland Cathedral by a lone piper.

Re: What Song do you want playing at your Funeral?
And this by Cavafy is the reading…
https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/51296/ithaka-56d22eef917ec
…Hope your road is a long one.
May there be many summer mornings when,
with what pleasure, what joy,
you enter harbors you’re seeing for the first time;
may you stop at Phoenician trading stations
to buy fine things,
mother of pearl and coral, amber and ebony,
sensual perfume of every kind—
as many sensual perfumes as you can;
and may you visit many Egyptian cities
to learn and go on learning from their scholars.
Keep Ithaka always in your mind.
Arriving there is what you’re destined for.
But don’t hurry the journey at all.
Better if it lasts for years,
so you’re old by the time you reach the island,
wealthy with all you’ve gained on the way,
not expecting Ithaka to make you rich.
Ithaka gave you the marvelous journey.
Without her you wouldn't have set out.
She has nothing left to give you now...

Re: What Song do you want playing at your Funeral?
I'm sure we've already had this discussion. My choice remains The Funeral Party, just so I can imagine my friends and family saying 'Oh, she did love the Cure, and she was so literal.'

I'm sure we've done this before, but can I find it?

I still haven't made my mind up.
But I feel I would go for something quite cheery and unexpected.
