I’m Going To Lighten The Page With What Songs Should You Not Play At A Funeral?

[Bobbisox1]

Loved Webbo’s suggestion on FB , he said The Hokey Cokey haha

I’d say thd Birdie song was a bad choice as well :0))

My uncle's coffin was actually carried out of the church, destined for the crematorium, to the sound of 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes' ;-)

[Bobbisox1]

Eeee, love it Chris haha

[evadora]

The Road to Hell bu Chris Rea.

fire by arthur brown might not go down well at a cremation

My aunt had her favourite song played at her funeral - ‘Reet petite’. It was a bit uncomfortable joining her daughters bopping away in the aisles - but it was what she wanted.

[Bobbisox1]

Only if you didn’t like them Eva ;0)

[Buenchico]

Bruce Springsteen's 'I'm Going Down' might not be a perfect choice ;-)

[Bobbisox1]

I was ag our friends a year ago and he wanted 20 flight Rock, I think it’s so much better than the somber stuff

[Bobbisox1]

Or The Only Way is Up maybe Chris?

[Patsy33]

At my Uncle's cremation, we had a Billy Joel song, 'We Didnt Start The Fire'

[Bobbisox1]

Well if that’s the choice then I think it’s grand

My friends Mum was 101 and the Crem was filled with Dancing Queen because she loved dancing in her day

Back in my college days, my mate was doing his teaching practice in a school located right next to a cemetery. He was a massive guy, with a very forceful personality and when, during music lessons, he demanded that the kids should sing, he made sure that they all belted it out with maximum volume.

One day he'd got the kids half way through a song, with all of the windows in the classroom open as it was a hot day, when he looked out of a window to see a funeral taking place right next door to his classroom. It was only then that it dawned upon him that the mourners might not have appreciated the very loud musical accompaniment to the service, particularly as the kids were belting out "John Brown's body lies a-moldering in the grave . . . "

Another on bites the dust by Queen. Ha Ha You're Dead by Green Day.

Arranging the funeral of a friend....with him as he's not dead yet... I asked for his choice of music.

Ain't it Grand to be Bloomin' Well Dead.....is his choice.

[Bobbisox1]

Oh Dear , hehe

[Bobbisox1]

I’d want Singing in the Rain with the proviso people wear a Mac and have a brolly up too :0)

[mallyh]

many years ago my dad went to a friends funeral and they played great balls of fire ,he was horrified.

MrG's funeral was held in a theatre. We had his favourite songs but Do You Hear the People Sing as his coffin left was my mistake.
Everyone behind him started marching and swaying to the tune... :-)
