Who can find the biggest tearjerker of a song, I'm going for this just cos I love it so much at the moment.
Pick one song to play at your funeral

You gayer
Not a tear-jerker, but I've known for fecking ages I want "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd played at my funeral.
At least if I die under the axe after being imprisoned for years.
Johnny Cash - Hurt
someone else can find the video, I can't be bothered.

I'd rather let the people who love me choose what music is played. The occasion is for them not me.
I'm not sure on the precise song, but I want something cheerful. If people are moody fecks at my funeral I'll haunt them.
Nothin else matters - Metallica
If i wanted to have a funny funeral: Going Underground - The Jam
But I'd actually like Strawberry Fields Forever or Who wants to live forever by queen

Never really thought of it to be honest, but this song would probably do.
Gooooood call!
Was played at my nans when i was little, i wasnt there but can imagine it suits the mood perfectly.
It's a great song.
Aerosmith - Don't Wanna Miss A Thing
Short and sweet.
xThis one is probably one of the saddest songs I know. It got my friend through many hard times when her grandmother died.
Great song, very moving. Good live performance also.
This has to be there if you are looking for tear jerkers.

Love that song, Hope Sandoval's voice is gorgeous, but I wouldn't want to have anything like this played when I pop my clogs. I want Ennio Morricone's "Bad Orchestra" from Once Upon A Time In The West, sadly I can't find a clip of it.
That's the one. Everyone in attendance will be given a slide whistle to play along with the music. I want it played as the pallbearers carry me teetering from side to side, stumbling backwards and forwards as I make my way to the furnace.
or
Its all in the game yo
The entire Mozart Requiem please
But i think i'd prefer this.
My mate died a couple of years ago and he had these playing
Think i want to go the traditional route.
Raglan Road by Luke Kelly. This shocks everyone when i tell them because of my protestant background and upbringing. But Luke Kelly in his prime was a real master of words.

This one would be beautiful to hear at a funeral. Not mine though. I'm gonna live forever.
