Oh man, I love that. The last verse (spoken) tears me up everytime I hear it.

from "Will You Be There" - Michael Jackson

I tear up through most of the song...and most of the movie...I don't know why...some kind of childhood-memory moving-relationship-lyrics combination.

I'm suprised someone even paid attention to this song (especially the end)!

But Michael Jackson has a lot of those "powerful" songs...like Man in the Mirror, Whatever Happens, You Are Not Alone, Earth Song...

"I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways"

Still Gonna Die

by Old Dogs (Waylon Jennings, Bobby Bare, Mel Tillis, Jerry Reed)
Oh I thought of another one I want played too.

Sittin' Up With The Dead

by Ray Stevens
 
so, i finally made up my mind. i want my funeral to be a celebration that lasts as long as all my music does. Basically i want everyone to dance and sing along with all 8+ days of my music. I think that'd be the most awesome way to go.
 
For years I've loved Heart of the Volunteer by Zimmer so that will be for the sad, we miss him moment.....

Then for something that my friends can nod and smile over: The Way Old Friends Do by Abba

One has to have a touch of Josh, so To Where You Are will get them weeping and wailing and crying for the champagne.

And finally, for a laugh You Don’t Own Me, the version from the soundtrack with Diane, Goldie and Bette.
 
I have it stipulated in my will there is to be no funeral, no memorial, no nothing when I die. I have already paid for cremation services and I carry a card that has instructions on who to call to have my remains picked up after I die. I don't want my siblings to do anything other than sign for the box of ashes when it's mailed to them. I have asked that my ashes be scattered in the lake near my parent's mausoleum.

Funerals, caskets, urns, flowers and all the hooey that comes along with death is a total scam as far as I'm concerned and I want nothing to do with it. I want to go out as quietly as I lived and if nobody ever mentions my name again after I'm gone, that will be perfectly fine. Just enjoy what I leave them and get on with life. Hopefully we'll all see each other again at some point, in some place.
 
with all the sudden threads about death, i thought i'd bump this one.
 
I'd have a soundtrack of my life, so far:

"Alone" by Heart - Number 1 on my birthday.
"Unskinny Bop" by Poison - My favorite song when I was like 5
"Cross My Heart" by George Strait - Reminds me of Mother
"Wannabe" by Spice Girls - Favorite song when I was 10
"Godzilla" by Blue Oyster Cult - Reminds me of Dad
"Fighter" by Christina Aguilera - Favorite song when I was 15
"Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen - Just because
"Ain't Nothing Wrong With That" by Robert Randolph - Favorite song when I was 20

of course, more will (hopefully) be added to the list.
 
cyndi lauper's girls just wanna have fun.
i want people to be happy.
crying after death is totally waste of time and useless. why don't u spend more time while they were still alive.
 
I like Kevbo's idea of a soundtrack. I'd make mine a "Death Album." :lol:

8 tracks:
"Only the Good Die Young," by Billy Joel.
"Pig," by Dave Matthews Band.
"Miss Me Blind," by Culture Club.
"Fields of Gray," by Bruce Hornsby.
"Sweet Up and Down," by Dave Matthews Band.
"First Suite in E Flat," by Gustav Holst (all movements).
"Hold On," by Sarah McLachlan.
"#34," by Dave Matthews Band.
 
Anything and everything by the B-52's. I want a party when I die. Celebrate my life and remember me as someone who like to have a good time!
 
There will not be a funeral or service when I die as no one to come ...
However; as the funeral director slides my body into the furnace for cremation .. I'd like for him to play :
"I've Got A Mansion"
"When the Roll is Called Up Yonder"
"Knocking on Heaven's gate"
 
I actually have a "death list" playlist in my iTunes library. I'm always changing the order of things and what's on there but I my list includes a lot of songs that are important to me. Music is a huge part of my life so this is something that I feel is just necessary to compile. My song list includes a wide range of stuff... from "All You Need is Love" by The Beatles to "Rock N' Roll Nigger" by Patti Smith. A wide range indeed.
 
I rather like "Dido's Lament" from Dido and Aeneas

Thy hand, Belinda, darkness shades me.
On thy bosom let me rest.
More I would, but death invades me.
Death is now a welcome guest.

When I am laid in earth, may my wrongs create
No trouble in thy breast.
Remember me, but ah! forget my fate.
 
At my cremation I would like to hear

:rotflmao:
Personally, I wouldn't want to hear anything while I was being cremated - and bugger the mourners - they won't be able to hear over your screams!;)
which is why I shall be buried.

Haven't planned the whole service yet, but do own the family plot. My partner and me are going in next to my grandmother and her infant daughter. He is being cremated - and will go inside his urn (which he has already bought) inside my coffin. If the bastard outlives me he will just have to go into the ground!

pic of grave attached.

music, mmmmmmmm

So in Love - from Kiss Me Kate (the De Lovely version)

Don't Rain on My Parade - Babs

and a couple of hymns (or hims?)

Bread of Heaven - 'cos by that stage I would be about to be - sung by a full Wesh mens choir

Praise My Soul The King of Heaven - all five verses - 'cos it is my favourite and I had it at my wedding - and it will piss the ex wife off

Be Thou My Vision - beautiful traditional Irish Hymn - 'cos I like it and it will be all about me!

and Holy, Holy, Holy - cos it is good and gutsy.

the mourners will be told to sing out oud and proud b/c I hate wussy hymn singing - or I will come back and haunt them
 
I have one song only. If whoever is my next-of-kin when I die needs to add more, he (or she) had better not pick You'll Never Walk Alone. I would haunt him 'till the day he died, and then I'd make his life in heaven a living hell. Seriously, You'll Never Walk Alone is a good song, but it's so overplayed at funerals.

SeliaN is right: funeral songs leave a lasting emotional imprint, that's why the only song I want at my cremation (no maggots eating my flesh, thank you very much) is one you'll never ever hear on the radio. It's

Flogging Molly - The Spoken Wheel

And if possible, I would like an Irish blessing said at my cremation. Preferably by an Irishman (who would also be my husband, but that's a different topic).
 
Nightwish - Sleeping Sun (original version)

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

 
I have now decided that I want to add

"Absolutely Not" - Deborah Cox

to be played as the pallbears carry me out.

and to be performed by 3 drag queens who used to be on at the Newtown Hotel

Vida Las Vegas
Shelly Legs Diamond
& Vanity Fair

in Edwardian period costume - as they used to perform it at the pub.

it was the first drag show I ever saw - and it ran for 9 months - I was there every week.
