funeral songs - deathinitely n/g

[wxgill]

I updated my will and funeral wishes recently and i picked some music for the service.

I am having "Outside" by George Michael and "Last Christmas" by Wham because i love them.

Which two songs would you pick for your very sad departure?

PS This is a non-woke post.

Always look on the bright side of life.

Don't worry, be happy.

Although, I do quite like the idea of being cremated to Firestarter (Prodigy) or Light My Fire (The Doors)

My will states quite clearly "NO SERVICE"
Dispose of my body in the cheapest most efficient way possible.
2 months after death all friends and family go out on the piss, and celebrate.

I like that version but actually I was hoping for a full orchestra to perform it live. I won't know though, will I?!

Have you heard the news that you're dead?

I think they never liked you anyway

I've told my son I want Tin Soldier by The Small Faces, one of my favourites and I used to read The Little Tin Soldier to him as a bedtime story.

'Shouting Men' followed by 'Fantastic Day' and as the curtains finally close, would like to hear 'Hey, Hey, Show you how to pray, Watch out! Gills are comin' atcha!' echoing round the crematorium
