Ya know, a few months back I was looking at a few Meatloaf titles that I wanted to select to make a great Meatloaf mix and I saw the track Life Is A Lemon and thought "man, that kinda sounRAB a little cheesy and childish", but I decided to download it anyways just for the hell of it.At first listen I thought it wasn't all that bad, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it now.It's got a somewhat sinister, evil sound to it (which I like) rather than just a basic old pop-rock song.

Anyways, I'll always have music in my head and a hell of a lot of it...lol!!!I already have an enormous collection of music of just about any style including rock (both hard, soft and regular), funk, blues, soul/r n b, jazz, progressive, psychedelic, metal (of all kinRAB) and even some hip-hop which only widens my collection year after year.Putting the concept of tracks that I'd deem appropriate for my whole family to hear at my funeral, I'd enjoy for them to hear tracks like these:

I could list thousanRAB more, but hopefully my family would atleast be comforted enough to leave the funeral after hearing all of these songs and spending time together.Hell, forget the funeral...lol!!!Get your iPod and make one of the best iPod mixes ever...
...of course you might not like all of the tracks mentioned, but...:beer:
 
This is so corny, so give me all the **** you want about it. But it's that one Greenday song that goes "I hope you had the time of your life." I don't even know the name of the song, I'm not a fan, but that would be a decent funeral song that the older people could stand.
 
all politicians are assh0les but bush is my favorite retard. He makes a complete jackass of himself and then looks back and thinks what he just said was some kind of epiphany. Speaking of which, "epiphany" by staind would be another good song for my funeral.
 
Just been introduced to a song called 'Hallelujah' by Rufus Wainwright, beautiful, suits it. Now if you'll excuse me, im going for a cry and to cuddle up with my teddy. Any man or woman who doesn't remeraber a loved one or cherished moment because of this and bawl like a ickle baby is hollow inside, hollow i tell you.
 
I think i'd want Time of your life by greenday...because they use it a lot at graduations and everything and what's death but a graduation when you're moving on from this life to whatever comes next?
 
No I don't, but I know that Teardrop is it's theme song or something? I remeraber hearing it for the first time in a ****tail bar sitting by a fire having a fantastic deep and meaningful with someone I was with. Very key song for me.
