Was talking with a colleague yesterday about how a lot of families only get together for weddings and funerals, sadly my own included. The conversation came around to the music played at both.

So, what song did you have, do you want at your wedding ? And what song do you want at your funeral ? Or what songs have stood out for you when attended other peoples events ?


This was my wedding song...



I think this for my funeral...

I'm gong to elope so no music at my wedding and I also don't plan on having a funeral. Just a cremation, no people, no music - end of story.

They'll probably play some Dire Straits at my Funeral.

Hopefully it'll be Industrial Disease if they do. :D

Although, I agree with Sunny: simple cremation - and that'll be all funeral..

Already married so I'll skip that one. I reckon this would be suitable for my funeral. Trouble is they'd have to start playing it a good 15 minutes or so before the service started :gig

Our wedding song (first dance) was "I'd Have You Anytime" by George Harrison. I want my funeral to be a light hearted affair so my choice would be "Yakkity Sax", otherwise known as "The Benny Hill Show Theme".

'My Love' from McCartney was our wedding song.

'Somedays' by McCartney will be played at my funeral.

The Wedding Song, was played at my wedding.



I guess I don't care what they play at my funeral. I won't be there anyway.
