What music would you like at your funeral?


Assuming that at some point far into the future that you have gone to audiofile heaven, what you you like people to play at your funeral in case you are listening and to help them with their loss?

So they say of dolts that they have the words but not the music. I guess audiophiles occasionally have the music but not the words.

Great responses - thanks for playing. I think that I would start with the Surfaris Wipe Out to get the blood going, then One Dying and a Burying (Well, I think I found a sure fire way to forget), the Gambler (know when to hold em, know when to fold em), Then Joplin Get it While you Can. And finish with "Give me the beat boys and free my soul, I want to get lost in the Rock and Roll".
YHK, you can specify music in a letter to a loved one, or pre plan. Churches may indeed restrict most of the selections mentioned unless snuck in by playing on organ at slower tempo, such as "You Cant Always Get What you Want" played at the funeral in the Big Chill. Funeral homes are often more flexible. So if you try some times, you get what you need.
