I would want something for those who loved me to think on. Not happy, that would just rub it in, but not overly depressing. Probably Good Enough by Evanescence.
I wouldn't object to Cradle of Filth's "Swansong for a Raven", either. Either Type O or Cradle would work. Or maybe, Type O at the beginning, when everyone's getting settled, to set the mood....then Cradle at the end, so they leave with something that'll stick in their heads for a while.
there are currently two songs that pops up in my mind, that i would wish that could be played at my funeral, those songs are 'heavens a lie' by lacuna coil, and 'the wreckage of my flesh' by my dying bride.
A friend of mine recently said to me, after i had put on my dying bride: ''bro, are this a funeral all the sudden?''...
First of all i wouldnt like tears in my funeral(after all death is just a redemption) as for the songs...
killed by Death(motorhead)
Necrofilia(suicide commando)
and all the Hammerheart album(bathory)
Mistico write: WONDERFULL "Deicider", You must see them live, also thier new cd is destined to be released March 13th :) they make quite a few good funeral songs.
Re:
I'm itching to see them live, but their shows are few and far between these days. I heard about the new album, and I can't wait :)
True. The majority of songs in their catalog would make good dirges lol
i would have dust in the wind, highway to hell, and no more tears because i want to be cremated, i know im going to hell, and because i dont want my family to cry at my funeral, cuz i hate seeing them like that.
