I don't a funeral or calling hours - just cremate me and put my ashes with my dog's when he dies. BUT - if everyone were to ignore my request, then I would want Poe - "Fly Away".

 

[Ds2000]

Anything off of this fantastic mess.

Beatles- In My Life

Peter Murphy - Cuts You Up

Led Zeppelin- Ramble On

And So It Goes- Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Yes to Peter Murphy. I always thought “Marlene Dietrich's Favorite Poem” would be good too.

Entry procession = "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me", Elton John

Exit procession = "Hair Of The Dog", Nazareth

No funeral for me. Why put my family through 3-4 days of waiting for the visitation, then another for the funeral. Put all my albums/cd's in the crematory with me.

I believe hookers and blow are the cause of many funerals

No song, no funeral.

Toast me and take me to this neat "secret" beach north of Santa Cruz. Anyone who comes along will get a shot of Jack and a nice cigar to enjoy while they dump my ass - hes in the ocean and float away.

"My Eternal King", "Written in Red", and for very personal reasons Claudio Macchi's Kyrie... The list could get quite long.

As long as it's played on an accordion, I don't care. My wife hates the accordion.

LOL! Weird Al's "Lasagna" comes to mind. Right at the end as they prepare to go to the meal seems especially apropos.

This was sung at George Jones funeral and if it's good enough for the "possum" it's good enough for me.

"Please Don't Bury Me" by John Prine....since my name is John and John is mentioned in the song

[sKiZo]

Fast food jingles ... more than likely what killed me was eating that crap ...

Think I can Get James Earl Jones to deliver the eulogy?

EDIT >> Just found out, it's not James Earl Jones who does the Arby's commercials after all ... it's Ving Rhames ?!?

Oh dude. David Byrne only wishes he could wear this [original] suit....

[mashaffer]

Of course there is always...
