a friend of mine said he went to the funeral of a gent who was a bit ravey, he had similey flags draped over his coffin & chose to have some kind of 4/floor music played... only thing was the speakers in the cremetorium couldn't handle the bass.... so it was squelch squelch squelch ...

I'll make sure everyone blubbers like little girls with their presents taken away from them on christmas eve, so it will probably be "Loreena McKennitt - Dante's Prayer" or "Skellig".

I'd possibly have to go with nowhere by therapy as well but for the line 'heaven kicked me out, wouldn't wear a tie...'

failing that I figure it would be disrespectful for the congregation to dismiss my final wishes so I'd blatantly abuse the fact and make the buggers do the timewarp for a laugh

The "Heaven kicked you out, you wouldn't wear a tie" line "suits" me perfectly, because I hate wearing ties/suits.

Prolly been chucked out of better gaffs anyway.

The Return of Los Palmas 7 - Madness

It's just a lovely piece of muzak.

Of course, I know my family would never play it, but still.

"Super Huey" by Paul Norman as I slide into the oven.

My wife says she'll go to your funeral, because you picked two of her favourite songs.

Someone else that actually knows of the existence of "Still Crazy". Yes!

Ahem.

My choices would both be Yngwie Malmsteen songs.

A bit of bludgeoning first, with "Never Die", followed by soothing for all with the exquisitely beautiful (and fairly lengthy) instrumental, "Icarus' Dream Suite Op. 4".

Oh, and I want Press Play on Tape and The Mad Fiddler at the wake to play "Monty On The Run" to get you fuckers dancing! Dance! Drink! Debauch! It's the last round I'll ever buy and I want you cunts to enjoy it...

Killed By Death - Motorhead.... but only if I can drive out of my grave on a motorbike and shit everyone up.

I live a life that's surreal,
Where that I feel I am learning.
For life has been turned on the lathe
Reshaped by the flame that's still burning.

Yeah. That'll do, boys. That'll do...

Damn.

I need to go to bed now, to get up early for work. But I *have* to go and watch at least a bit of that film.

Whole thing lasts about eight seconds or so

Ah no, it's rather commercial at full 17 seconds

What about "Ars Moriendi" by Mr Bungle? Fits the bill and would freak out most people
