I want my funeral to be a party too, but my dad was 81 and he didn't leave any requests, was old fashioned, so will be old fashioned, I guess.
I have already told my daughter that I want to be cremated and what beach I want my ashes scattered on. Guess it is a generational thing, we are thinking ahead, our parents didn't think that way. |

Funny you should mention that one Image- my brother said they liked "Knocking on Heaven's Door" and he wants it played at the funeral. So guess it will be played. This is another good one, and if I ever die, it's getting played at my funeral too... Goo Goo Dolls-"I'm Still Here" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lln91hSsMpo ...that's all me and the song will remind everyone at my funeral of every memory of me. |

I am up to my gizzard in typing tonight, so need to "git-r-done."  Thanks again for the wonderful ideas. Tears in Heaven is a good one too. So many good ideas, lots to think about.

After having those few serious songs I posted played at my funeral, I'm alot like Gypsy; I rather play something that reminds everyone at my funeral of all the smiles and laughter I brought to them, and to all the chicks going to be there...so here's some on my list for my funeral...
Saliva-"Ladies and Gentlemen" Aerosmith & Run DMC-"Walk This Way" Aerosmith-"Love In An Elevator" (long story) Aerosmith-"Pink" (It's my favorite color) Aerosmith-"Sweet Emotion" American HiFi-"Nothing Left To Lose" John Hiatt-"Have A Little Faith In Me" Green Day-"She" (I have no idea why) Kid Rock-"I Feel Like Making Love" (An even longer story) Jon Bon Jovi and Jennifer Nettles-"Who Says You Can't Go Home" Incubus-"I Wish You Were Here" Brad Paisley-"Ticks" (I remember her and I know she'll be there) Sum 41-"My Heart Will Go On" Sum 41-"In Too Deep" Spiderbait-"Black Betty" (IT ROCKS!!!) Drake Bell-"I Found A Way" (My sons and I dance to it all the time) McFly-"Silence Is A Scary Sound" McFly-"Rockin Robin" Goldfinger-"99 Red Balloons" Pink-"Trouble" (it's my middle name) Smashing Pumpkins-"Disarm" The Eels-"Hey Man, Now You're Really Livin" The Eels-"It's a Motherf@cker" AC/DC-"Back In Black" AC/DC-"You Shook Me All Night Long" (very long story) |

I just rather nobody cry at my funeral. I'd rather them be smiling, laughing, and having fun.
This is how everyone at my funeral will and has always seen me... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APSSqfl23XE ...the whole video is me, dead or alive! |
