What song would you want played for your funeral?
Here's the one for me:
Always loved The Mamas and The Papas!
Haley Reinhardt has a really good cover of this song too!

Well I have specified a Burt Lancaster funeral for me - that's one with no fuss. But, theoretically, the song I would have is George Harrison, ANY ROAD (WILL GET YOU THERE).
"I keep travelling around the bend
There is no beginning, there is no end
It wasn't born and it never dies
There are no edges, there is no sides
Oh yeah, you just don't win
It's so far out the way out is in
Bow to God and call him sir
And if you don't know where your going
Any road will take you there."
Case you wondering, George doesn't mean God, God, he means, well the whole big universe mystery thing.
Oh and @HeyHiHullo I think they offed Mama Cass in London in 1974. She knew too much. Great singer.

Have ye no Irish blood in you? For if you did you'd be like Tim Finnegan and make sure a wee drop of whiskey plashed your lips to resurrect you!
Here's the Dubliners with their rendition:

In ainm an dhiabhal (in the devil's name), do you think I'm dead?
@brentan rhetorical question out of the blue. Perhaps I know you under different guise?
@FrayedBear I don't know. I'm on FB but that's about it these days.
@brentan No. All cool. If you are into "Traditional and Folkmusic" come and join. We once had @Dhiabhal as a very valued and valuable member.
@FrayedBear I understand you better now. No, in all honesty, @Dhiabhal isn't me. Thanks very much for the invite to the folk group!
I'll be dead so it won't fucking matter to me. I'd want people to play whatever music makes them feel right.

Just for you
I would want them to play "Dreamer" by Ozzy Osbourne. It's such a powerful ballad that I've enjoyed hearing for a long time.

@Dida ummm, yeeeaaah. I have that effect on people, in a non-creepy way of course 
@Dida ...not professional...just sang in choir for years. But, I love music and unusual music the most.
@Dida no...my posting was only the name of Demis Roussos, 'Goodby my love Goodby,' HeyHIHullo, posted the video for me!
@Dida Nope, not the singer, just sharing videos of what others like. Brighten someone's day. 
Alvin Lee and Ten Years After. I’m going home
