Re: What songs do you want played at your funeral?

Post by ruiner »

when i leave a bar i really hate, or if i want to piss off a crowd of my friends giving me shit for ducking out early, i like to pump a sawbuck into the jukebox and put the final countdown on repeat.

i think that would do just fine at my funeral. the final countdown, turned up to eleven, played one time for every year i had on this planet. each rendition in its entirety.

that'll show em.

You see in this world there are two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.

The Shatner "Common People" is incredible.

Suprised no one has suggested "My Way" by Sinatra.

Bertha - The Grateful Dead
Jane Sez - Jane's Addictions
You Are My Sunshine - whoever.

If you think that last pick was pussy, my mom sang that to me. All the time.

Of course, after this compilation of madness, someone hands out the neon necklaces and chem lights, and the rave begins. I'm not having a funeral. Seriously. I've decided I want a party instead. Even if I live long enough to make it to ninety, I want a party. Life is a celebration, and moving on should be, too. Anyone here who's still kicking will get a free pass. I will ensure that someone makes Snacks.

My Ride's Here- Warren Zevon

I've also got a script of Monty Python's "Dead Parrot" sketch modified to be relevant. And, yes, it will be a wake, not a funeral.

The song that is played during Final Jeopardy! Not the one with the bongos though, that would be tasteless.
