funeral songs

#

Started by not_that_kind_of_guy (a story on the radio) in Chit-Chat

now now, it doesn’t have to be morbid. if you died tomorrow what 3 songs would you want played at the funeral service?

i’ll start (in order from the beginning of the funeral until the end)

1. welcome to the jungle - guns n roses
2. stay together - suede
3. you love us - manic street preachers

i mean, give ‘em a good time at least :)

“6 Underground” by Sneaker Pimps would be a good one!

easyworld - lights out - a song about things crashing down and not working, specifically the millennium bug
madness - our house - just a cool song about family life
primus - wynona’s big brown beaver - just one hell of a cool song

If i could have a fourth song i would include a song by Ballboy called You Can’t Spend Your Whole Life Hanging Around With Arseholes i think you can guess from the title what part of the chorus is…You can’t spend your whole life hanging around with arseholes and you know that i am never coming back.:D

This will probably get me shot (er.. no pun intended, or.. whatever)… but that three track thing… “mini-opus” if you will, on the end of Extreme’s 3rd album, Three Sides To Every Story…

I don’t know why, but it’s got the whole gamut of emotions in it, it’s got some Christian references, but it should leave everyone wiping away a tear at the end.

I don’t know. I probably don’t mean this, but it just, for some reason, came to mind. (i.e., I haven’t actually /thought/ about this)
