Your funeral playlist

[StrongNChrist]

I honestly don't care just as long as they aren't super cheerful. I've never really thought of it. I just remember them playing Amazing Grace at my dad's funeral and I like that. My main preferance really is that my pastor doesn't do it. I don't like his funerals

[Boswell]

Amazing Grace - the real version, not Chris Tomlin's version.

Amen, brutha. Stick to the public domain!

My song would be The Song That Never Ends.

[UNCLEBITTLES]

Amazing Grace - the real version, not Chris Tomlin's version.

Amen, brutha. Stick to the public domain!

My song would be The Song That Never Ends.

NO! Not that song! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Aaron Wiley]

One of them would be Wake The Dead by Family Force 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry to quote from the first page, but this has to be the best funeral song choice I've ever seen. I want to come to your funeral.

[Steve]

One of them would be Wake The Dead by Family Force 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooh. That might end up on mine too!

[Sherlock]

I'd go with something really macabre like Fauvre's Requiem Mass in D Minor, but in the line of traditional hymns, I'd pick "How Great Thou Art".

As a random question, I saw a few people had "My Heart Will Go On". Are we talking about the (pardon) cheesy Titanic song? Or am I missing out on something with the same title?

[Smaug the Dragon]

something like this...



with candles and a big black coffin. and heavy red drapery.

[King Butter Turtle]

Jesus Loves Me
God is so Good
What Could be Better? by 33 Miles (talk about your dirges )
How He Loves by David Crowder Band
Home by Shawn McDonald
Please Be My Strength by Gungor
Doxology

Those poor people are gonna be singin for a while.

...but, heck! What do I care? I'll be dancing on the streets of gold!

[Sherlock]

That's pretty nice Smaug, but for the first couple of measures, it was sounding like the intro to a 1940's Sherlock Holmes radio series!

But regarding Faure, my current concern is to how they're going to fit the full orchestra and choir into the Church. They'd better make it work! :X

Example

[Lee]

I'm only 14... c'mon guys! Do we REALLY need to discuss this? I think "There is a Higher Throne" would be a good one....

[Termite]

I'm not dying til I've lived my 'three score and ten' years, at least. I'd like to make 100, and I probably will. But here are the two that I'd have, anyway.

[Kairi]

"Ding Dong the Wicked Witch is Dead"


"What I Did for Love"-A Chorus Line
Star Trek original theme song. as my remains are blasted into space.
epic.

[Jimmy Barclay Fan]

I have thought of this MANY times

Friends by Michael W Smith
I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me
If You Could See Me now by Truth
I wish you were Here by Mark Harris
One Sweet Day by Mariah Carey and Boys 2 men
Hey God by Vince Gill For Payne Stewart funeral in 1999

I knew I would forget one.
Remember Me by Mark Schultz

That...is a suprisingly good song. My AMV senses are tingling.

Anyways, my list is as follows:

"For Good" from the musical Wicked. YES.
"Legacy" by Nichole Nordeman and, for a grande finale...

"Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen.
