Have you picked out your funeral music?
Have you planned the music for your funeral yet? If so what songs have you picked?
No and I don't think I ever will. I'm just going to hope that my family and friends pick something that they think I would have liked
No. I could care less since I will be gone. I know my family will choose something appropriate.
I heard of someone who had, "Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye," played, made the mourners smile. " Que sera, sera, whatever will be, will be, " is quite tempting, or, " Why worry, be happy."
I haven't picked out a particular piece to be played but I have picked out the "10 Albums I Want Buried With Me When I Die," which is sort of like a morbid version of the old "Desert Island Discs" game.
I'm a big Springsteen fan. He has an acoustic song called "Across the Border" that would be appropriate.
My wife jokingly says she would like "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" played at her funeral
I am very non traditional so I picked out three for my husband to play. Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird, Staind's Tangled up in You, and Shinedown's Shed Some Light.
Despite the fact that this seems a bit maudlin......I can tell you that there'll be no funeral in my case, since I am a body donor (my body is donated to the University, in the interest of Science/Study of Anatomy and Human disease).....Hopefully, my family will fulfill my wishes and hold a "Celebration of my Life"..Memorial service...and play all the music they know I always loved........The End.

Have you planned your funeral? If so, at what age did you do this?After planning more than one funeral for family members, I am thinking about my own funeral plan. What have you planned and how old were you when you planned it? Did it seem morbid to you to do this?

How do you find popular music for a child that is appropriate?While trying to download popular songs to my son's MP3 player I realized it's hard to find appropriate songs for a 9 year old. So how do I find music without all the inappropriate stuff that is still in style?
