Across the Universe - The Beatles (because I genuinely have been blessed with "limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns"

 

Do You Realise? - Flaming Lips (because there's a lot of truth in the lyrics, that people need reminding of when they're at a funeral)

 

In My Life - Johnny Cash (also first dance at our wedding)

 

Shake Shake Shake Sonora - Harry Belafonte (cheer up, yer miserable buggers)

We probably all think of this, personally I'm not bothered as I won't be able to hear any of it. I'll probably go with a few of my favourites though, and a couple of long ones just to piss everyone off. 

 

Redemtion Song. Bob Marley. 

Tunnel of Love. Dire Straits. 

Nothing Else Matters. Metallica. 

Free Bird Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Jesus of Suburbia. Greenday.

I went to a funeral a few years back and the guy has chosen " Great Balls of Fire" as the box slid behind the curtains. Class

 

For me . " Across the Border" Springsteen

I had Across The Border played at my wedding?!

 

For A Dancer by Jackson Browse and The Parting Glass by Liam Clancy
