At your memorial, which song

[webjamn]

would you like to have played?

I'm leaning towards "Solitary Man" by Chris Isaak or "Wild is the Wind" by Bowie.

[hickman1937]

1. Mozarts Requiem.

If it was good enough for Beethoven it's good enough for me. Plus I'd give half my soul to be able to see my kids, brothers and sisters, try to assemble a choir and orchestra for it.

[Suich]

2. Anything Buddy Holly or Roy Orbison!!! n/t

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. Mahler's Symphony No. 2

[havocmom]

4. Another One Bites the Dust

But for my daughter's sake, I'd like someone to play the old Helen Reddy recording "You & Me Against the World".

She needs to know I will be listening, whenever she needs to talk.

5. Bridge Over Troubled Water

Ripples in still water when there is no pebble tossed....

The Power Of Goodbye ~

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no

You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is a warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it won't be long

Walk away
There's nothing left to try
There's no place left to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken I loved you so
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress

There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye

Learn to say good-bye
I yearn to say good-bye

There's nothing left to try
There's no more places to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye

[Lydia Leftcoast]

10. Ralph Vaughan Williams' "Variations on a Theme by Tallis"

as the guests are coming in, "Bring Us O Lord God" by Harris and "Oh How Glorious" by Willan as the choir anthems, and Bach's Gigue Fugue as the recessional. :-)

12. The last one is for the mother of my children

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware

I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

-------------------------

My Maserati does one-eighty-five
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked

--------------------

Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off

---------------------

Yeah, come on all of you, big strong men,
Uncle Sam needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Vietnam
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.

---------------------------------------

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

[qnr]
