It is a celebration of life.

If I went out in a horrible accident.




Naturally

so much tease

and

Well not really but it's still one of the best songs ever.

Probably a better funeral song:

Great song. But the Geto Boys actually made a memorial song.

Yeah, not sure why I didn't post that one because that is probably my second all time favorite Geto Boys song and makes more sense for this topic.

Just because I know everyone would be trashed.

Either this


Or this


I'd be dead and wouldn't have to hear it.

On a more serious note I always like this version as Matt Barlow really portrays the emotion in his performance.



and the obligatory Rasterx Nightwish post.

If I wanted to depress the shit out of people.



Born from silence, silence full of it
A perfect concert my best friend
So much to live for, so much to die for
If only my heart had a home
Sing what you can't say
Forget what you can play
Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes
Walk within my poetry, this dying music
- My love letter to nobody
Never sigh for better world
It's already composed, played and told
Every thought the music I write
Everything a wish for the night
Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin
Died for the beauty, the one in the garden
Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom
Failed in becoming a god
Never sigh.....
"If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it
Remember only the verse, song maker's cry the one without tears
For I've given this its strength and it has become my only strength
Comforting home, mother's lap, chance for immortality
Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew
The sweet piano writing down my life"
"Teach me passion for I fear it's gone
Show me love, hold me lorn
So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me
I'm sorry
Time will tell - (this bitter farewell)
I live no more to shame nor me nor you
And you...I wish I didn't feel for you anymore..."
A lonely soul - An ocean soul

My friend who died a couple of years ago wrote a play about Wilhelm Reich that finished with Mr Blue Sky, so I always think of him when I hear it. Most uplifting song ever written about Trevor Francis.

Have always had a thought to have this one played at my own:


then maybe uplift with another BigStar:

Really? at a funeral.......C'MON MAN. I'm sure everyone attending would love it. Not

When you're dead you can finally let your guard down. You don't have to act the tough guy or the cool guy or whatever you're trying for.

anything by this guy for me.

Yeah, be a real man and play this- it's even got a poker reference in it:

I can't believe only eight people on this forum are going to die. Good luck.

I'm with Lew open bar at the funeral reception.
