What song will they play at your funeral?

[Memento Mori]

"Fred Jones Part 2" by Ben Folds, anyone?

 

[Tony Funderburk]

That image atop the OP might be the funniest thing I've ever seen!

OK, Ok, ok, so I don't get out much... but it's funnny!

p.s. I don't know what song I'd want played at my funeral, but I would want Tony Funderburk to sing it!

That's very nice of you Bob. Since I'm older than you, though...it might have to be the other way around.

[SaulToPaul 2]

I can remember "How Great Thou Art" played at both of my grandfathers funerals and I knew right then that I would want that played at my funeral as well. That song has always been a favorite of mine.

Yes, that's a great song, in the "old english".

The new modern version is "You Be Da Bomb". :drum:

[Psalmist]

One the residents at the healthcare center mentioned this one as a favorite . . .​

OVER THE SUNSET MOUNTAINS

Over the sunset mountains,
Someday I'll gladly go;
Into the arms of Jesus,
He who has loved me so.

Toiling will all be ended,
Shadows will flee away;
Sorrow will be forgotten--
Oh, what a wonderful day!

Over the Sunset Mountains,
Heaven awaits for me,
Over the Sunset mountains,
Jesus my Savior I'll see.​

Hello

Hello

Well, This is very interesting post. Nice one...that is a beautiful version. I am glad we agree on it. That song is pretty good........:sheep:

 

[chrysostom]

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
but I know we'll meet again some sunny day!

Keep smiling through, just like you always do,
'till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away!
So, will you please say hello to the folks that I know?
Tell them I won't be long!
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song:

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
but I know we'll meet again some sunny day!

 

[Town Heretic]

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
but I know we'll meet again some sunny day!

Keep smiling through, just like you always do,
'till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away!
So, will you please say hello to the folks that I know?
Tell them I won't be long!
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song:

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
but I know we'll meet again some sunny day!

:think: Much better than my "Cracklin Rosie" idea...:guitar:
