Some I forgot in my initial list...
A.T.B. - 9 p.m. (Till I Cum)
Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reaper
Eric Clapton - Layla (Unplugged)
Bob Dylan - It Ain't Me Babe, Like A Rolling Stone
The Eagles - Hotel California
Fatboy Slim - Praise You
Foo Fighters - All My Life, Times Like These
Green Day - Blvd. Of Broken Dreams
Guns 'N Roses - Welcome To The Jungle
Billie Joel - We Didn't Start The Fire
Khalid - Aisha
John Lennon - (Just Like) Starting Over
Dean Martin - Ain't That A Kick In The Head
Robert Miles - Children
Queen - I Want To Break Free
Carlos Santana - Smooth
System Of A Down - B.Y.O.B.
Three Dog Night - One Is The Loneliest Number
Tom Petty - I Won't Back Down
P.O.D. - I Feel So Alive
Bruce Springsteen - Dancing In The Dark
2Pac w./The Notorious B.I.G. - Runnin (Dyin To Live)
and.......The Canadian National Anthem.
That's close to 55 songs in total. Hey maybe one my family members or friends could get some bands to play all the songs and charge like $250 a head to attend my funeral. The money could go to The Canadian Diabetes Foundation, The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, The Canadian Cancer Society, Little League Canada, North York General Hospital, Sunnybrook & Women's College Health Sciences Centre and York University.

Or maybe "Pretty Fly for a White Guy". In all seriousness though, I'm not too sure what song I'd choose. Maybe "The Ballad of Curtis Lowe" by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Perhaps "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd. I'm gonna be cremated after my death, but I still plan on having a wake and a service. I want it set up so everybody is waiting at the site for a half hour, and I'm still not there. They always said I'd be late for my own funeral, so why disappoint?

Mine would probably be one of these above all. "The Beatles - In My Life" I side with you there, it is a great song. The anthem of my life would be Oasis' Live Forever, but I don't think that the theme of it ("maybe I will never be all the things that I wanna be, now is not the time to cry, now's the time to find out why") suits the funeral (when it's already over) as much as the "you and I are gonna live forever" line. Other candidates: Radiohead - Bulletproof... I wish I was Kent - Mannen i den vita hatten (16 år senare) Oasis - (You've got the) Heart of a Star Oasis - Stop Crying Your Heart OutBruce Springsteen - Independence Day Bruce Springsteen - Bobby Jean Bruce Springsteen - The Promised Land Muse - Endlessly John Lennon - Imagine Suede - The Next Life

Two new "must-haves":
Renegade (Live Version) ~ Warren Zevon
Peaches En Regalia ~ Frank Zappa
The Doc
And you liar, teller of tall tales: you trample all the Lord's commandments underfoot, you murder, steal, commit adultery, and afterward break into tears, beat your breast, take down your guitar and turn sin into a song. Shrewd devil, you know very well that God pardons singers no matter what they do, because he can simply die for a song.

The Doc Great choice, though I'd take "Zoot Allures" from Zappa. Definitely an off-beat funeral. Here's another one I'd like. "There's a Place For Us" - Tom Waits
