...to play at your funeral?

No brainer for me. My friends and family already know the answer to this:

(and I was at the show where the video link was made last week).

Funny you should post that just as I was sending the song to a friend.

Not my type of music.

I wouldn't want something played that was a favorite at the funeral...now, maybe at the wake...

My guess for you would be The Good Ship Lollipop.

Yeah, I shoulda said wake. That's actually what I meant.

I'm leaning toward Tull's "A Passion Play"

Great song... but I like the Rufus Wainwright version:

YouTube - "Hallelujah" by Rufus Wainwright (Irish performance)

Oh, I LOVE that version!


I added it to my "favorites" on youtube. Now I have 4 versions of "Hallelujah" on there by Leonard, kd lang, Jeff Buckley and Rufas Wainwright.

Thanks!

I'd go with something sobby...Billie Holiday, Jeff Beck's Bridge of Sighs, Robert Cray.
