"I want this to play at my funeral." There are surely many emotionally strong songs out there, but I personaly have a choice few that if I heard them on my death bed, I'd die happy.For me personally I have two main ideas: Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Greenday Because I love You from Earthbound OST The prior because it simply has so many endings connected to it. This song has played at Going away parties, Graduation Ceremonies, and the like since it was made.The later because of the emotional connection I personally have with the game. This song is the last song you hear, an you hear it while backtracking through all the places you went throughout your adventure. So, does any one else have some song that they would like to be the last thing they hear? Any reasons why that specific song?

I seem to be all out of fucks Posts: 1,180 Group: A Rank Hero Member #11,124 Joined: June 9, 2010 Gender: Undisclosed Game Currently Playing: Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn	That's a pretty deep question, man. It really got me thinking. Here's the first song that came to mind: Lullaby Set from Braid OST I love this song because it's so emotional. To me, it seems both sad and uplifting. I realized that I didn't want my family to suffer from grief when I'm gone. I'd rather them be happy, remembering the good times we had together. This song just seems to capture that feeling for me.

Some are really sad and tear jerky, and others what people had played are so ironic members of the congregation couldn't help but giggle... Which is what i would like at mine! - People giggling at "Oh yeah, that was definatly Stu's sense of humour" So something like this for me (won't link it, rather sweary) Kevin Bloody Wilson - Absolute **nt of a Day. Because, well, yeah i'm dead and would be a bit of a bugger really! And probably as cremation will be the more widley done thing by the time i snuff it, something like this would be great Prodigy - Firestarter. Mainly just for my humour However for a serious send off? Not sure really, this is one of my favorite chilled out tunes and i think is quite apt when leaving this life. "I will find you" to friends and family past and present.

And it fits how I think a funeral should go. When I die I don't want tears. I want to be remembered for all the good times and for all the people who's lives I touched. This song (At least to me) fits that bill splendidly.

I want to be remembered for all the good times and for all the people who's lives I touched. I must agree with you. When I die, I don't want people to be crying about it. I want people to remember everything they enjoyed while I was alive. Which is why the song I would pick would make people remember the good things about life. One song that comes to mind is "Hello, Goodbye" by The Beatles. If I had to pick a song that wasn't totally cheery and upbeat, I guess I'd have to go with "Somewhere on Fullerton" by Allister, "Eleanor Rigby" by The Beatles or "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day.

The pure hot-bloodedness will override death itself! Either that or I'll die fighting for every single second I can steal from under the Reaper's (lack of) nose, which is exactly the way I want to go out; completely refusing to pack it in despite the physical impossibility of it!

Either: "Yesterday" by the Beatles (or "Here Comes the Sun") Smiles and Tears -Earthbound OST Fireflies -Owl City Or probably the most RIDICULOUS song: Watch the Moonrise - Arashi No Yoru Ni (One Stormy Night) English redub. Some of the songs are rather silly ideas for a funeral song though...

Trying to go with a theme this time Posts: 3,032 Group: E Rank Legend Member #11,365 Joined: August 31, 2010	Well, I'm quite Indecisive, so here's a list. XP (Strange how I always think about this....): Astrosexy - m-flo (Click here) Now or Never (Remix of the above) - m-flo loves CHEMISTRY (Click here) A.D.D.P - m-flo (Click here) Prism - m-flo (Click here) If you can't already tell I REALLY like m-flo. xD EDIT: HOWEVER, for something more serious (Rather then the last song i would like to here before I die), A good old oriental flute would perfect my funereal, IMO.

	Something I made long ago My Stamps Agnosticism, explained Quote: I neither advocate nor demote the successes and demonizations of man's science or divine visions. I'm just saying following books translated by mankind, capable of deviant sin isn't a source of reputable knowledge I'd plan one's own life around or ahead to. I'm without a faith in either of which not because I choose to be jaded or blind to them, but because I would rather figure things out through my own eyes, not ones of others' zeal. It would seem askew of me to correct your last statement just the same. But it is arrogant to assume my faith lies in something as paltry as technical aspiration. ~Moddex Its that simple.
