Strange Funeral Songs

Have you ever been to a funeral where the music played was… well… let's just say - not very appropriate? Here is a list of the top 10 most unusual Funeral Songs:

So much for "Amazing Grace" or an age-old hymn sung to a melody composed by Chopin or Bach and played on a majestic pipe organ. Loved ones who are planning funerals today are opting for rock music and electric guitar riffs, according to a new poll of more than 45,000 people across Europe that was conducted by the digital TV station Music Choice.

Songs Funeral Strange

At my father in law's funeral, my sister in law sang "the greatest man I never knew". I was slightly appalled that you would sing a song about never really knowing your father because he wasn't around, at his funeral. I didn't say anything, but my wife sure did. She was really upset that she would chose a song like that since she was a daddies girl and would have appreciated something more loving.

I am of the opinion that funerals shouldn't be such a Solum occasion, I think those Europeans have the right idea. Now, having said that I understand that everybody grieves in their own way. But, I know that if I died and managed to be able to retain my personality some way I wouldn't want to see a sad dull crowd. I would want everybody to celebrate my life, not mourn my death. Go ahead play Stairway to Heaven, play Lake of Fire, I'de get a kick out of it! I've been to a funeral where everybody I met was "sorry for my loss." and I was surprised how empty that made me feel; I only wish that someone could have been there with something lite and happier. But, I don't know, maybe I'm a special case and most don't see things the same way, but I don't see why funerals can't be celebratory.

If I was to die I'd want an alternative song like boulevard by green day. It's an upbeat song but it refers to how I lived. The point of a funeral is to remember someone. When I have a funeral I want people to remember how I lived not died.

I really don't get really upbeat music or distracting music at funeral. It takes away from the ability to reflect on your memories of the person.
