One day, Bryn, you may be unfortunate enough to get on my humour wavelength.

I made a will some years back and my funeral arrangements were decided alongside that.
I have:
1. 'The Bells are Ringin'(for me and my gal)" sung by Judy Garland and Gene Kelly (singing about weddings at a funeral, that will keep the f**kers guessing)
2. "Ist Ein Traum", the final trio from Richard Strauss' Die Rosenkavalier
3. The "Magic Fire Music" from the end of Wagner's Die Walkure This is heartbreakingly beautiful, so leading nicely into...
4. "Shaddap Ya Face" by Joe Dolce
Although I'm considering simplifying things by replacing the first three with Wagner's glorious Pilgrim's Chorus from the opera Tannhauser
I think Joni's William Shatner idea is fantastic.

My Dad had a Dixieland version of "When you're smiling" played at his funeral as well as Elgar's beautiful Chanson De Matin, which is a great tear jerker (as opposed to knob jerker).

Not that bothered since I'll be dead, but the ones that spring to mind are Devin Townsend's "Funeral" (so people know where they are) and Hardline's "Dr Love" (so people remember whose funeral it is). Neither is on Youtube, sadly, but to give you some idea:
Devin, "Regulator" (my favourite of his):
Hardline, "Hot Cherie":

I have always wanted 'Crazy Diamond' by Pink Floyd, or maybe their 'great gig in the sky'.
My wife wants 'time of my life' from dirty dancing, but I've told her she is getting 'Ding Dong the Witch is Dead'.
