• What is your list of songs you want played at your funeral?

    Is it just me?
    Have you also got a list on songs that you want to be played at the ceremony to mark your passing?
    It’s a good job I’m not depressed because on my way home from another vaguely disappointing night on the town my IPod threw up 2 of ‘my’ songs in a row.
    This made me wonder if I am alone in having such a list?
    Anyway, how about sharing yours?

    Here are 2 of mine:

    “Revelator” by Gillian Welch
    &
    ‘One’ – Johnny Cash’s version of course.

    Obviously I want em all crying in the aisles!

    Actually I think I’d also like a memorial event 6 months later where all my favourite bands can play happier stuff & do cover versions of the songs I love. But that’s another blog post.
