Maybe it's a good job I sorted out the three that I have done.
My daughter's FIL died 3 years ago and when we arrived for his funeral we were greeted with Lonnie Donegan's "Tom Dooley". It made everyone smile as it was a very apt choice - he was well known for taking his guitar with him to every family get-together and the first song he played every time was "Tom Dooley". It was also used as his exit song.

Sounds like you've got it all planned.


Well you do keep saying you want to go to the seaside so may as well kill two birds with one stone so to speak.

If two tunes/songs are the norm, I'd probably go for 'Aria' by Acker Bilk on the way in and 'Somewhere In Time' for on the way out.

Re: What song

If I was going to be buried I think, "Hole in the Ground" by Bernard Cribbins and " Waiting for the Worms" by Pink Floyd would do nicely

Re: What song

"Ying Tong, Ying Tong, Ying Tong Gittleye Fo."

Played loud, as I'm a bit deaf, so that I will wake up if I'm not really gone........!

For those who have never heard of it....where've you been?
