Just that really. What song do you want to be remembered/known for?

Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana.

ELO Mr Bluesky

Leave right now - Will Young

Downtown by Macklemore, to cheer everyone up.

Paul Williams - You Give a Little Love (from Bugsy Malone!)

Wave goodbye by Chris Cornell... I actually love his voice!

Disco inferno 😄

Ooh, I love that one too. Might add it to my list of possibilities. 😃

'As', the Mary J Blige + George Michael version

Ding Dong The Witch is Dead

She: Elvis Costello
Baby Jane : Rod Stewart
Theme music from Inspector Morse

Hold on to memories-Disturbed

Dad chose his funeral music. As we left the building to go to the cemetery we had the finale of the 1812 overture complete with canons

That would have made me howl. My parents also loved dancing and I can recall that song being played at the socials they took me to as a child .

Ruby Tuesday by The Rolling Stones. It's very apt for me as anyone who knows me knows.
Everyone should sing the chorus.

Rainy night in Soho by "The pogues" beautiful lyrics

Blinded By The Light by Manfred Mann's Earth Band.

I'd also consider Massachusetts by the Bee Gees. Or The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel.

Here comes the sun - The Beatles.

This..

Close To Me by The Cure
Or perhaps Pictures Of You.
I think my Mum would choose Cemetery Gates by The Smiths for me. She always says it's my song in her mind :)

Con te partiro by Andrea Bocelli if I die before my husband. I love the music and I love that it doesn't totally make sense given the translation, it's about creating a moment in time. I'll give him the theme to the Detectorists by Johnny Flynn.

The Book of Love - Peter Gabriel
Gentle as Silence

DH went to his first service at a crematorium recently and jokes between wanting Highway To Hell and Stairway To Heaven

Sentimental Walk. - Vladimir Cosma (from the movie Diva).
Or Gymnopedie No1, which was played as we signed the register at my wedding and at my husband's funeral.

We had Handel's water music for my mum out the church, then Jools Holland & Ruby Turner "Peace in the Valley" out the Crem
I fancy "eulogy" by Frank Turner & DH wants "Get off my Cloud" by the Stones
