Well I want them to play something really happy and peppy just to mess with the minds of the funeral guests.

Shantel Disco Disco Partizani

Something like this I think, but with more Baltic Disco infused. Anyone know of anything?

EDIT where's that Huckleberry guy who writes his own music? I bet he could write something for me.

Yeah, wow. The front page is completely full of threads either about songs or funerals. There's like, a few of them and it is simply unmanageable! My brain is overloading with all of these threads that aren't political food fights!

It's not a necro bump if you have something to add. Good threads never die, they only wait to be bumped.

I remember an acquaintance of mine had a 'Songs you would die to' Party---where everyone in attendance brought in the #1 song they would want played upon their death. I don't know what would be my #1, but part of me would love some absurdity like All Together Now or Yellow Submarine or Nowhere Man, by the Beatles.

There was a good thread over at the Onion AV Club about the best songs to play when you're falling to your death from a plane:
Songs to Fall to Your Death to

Lou Reed- Perfect Day was my favourite choice.

Ripple by the Grateful Dead

favourite verse:

reach out your hand, if your cup be empty
if your cup is full, may it be again

When people close to me die, I play this song. It seems to give me closure, it's like saying good-bye one last time.
