After writing my
eulogy in 9 lines I learned of a relative who passed away.
Instead of dwelling on the bigger picture and the woulda, shoulda and the couldas I thought I would focus on what I would like played at my funeral.
Please understand that I think funerals are for the living and I know my family would never go for this however, if they did I would like to present to you my
Top 5 Songs to Be Played at My Funeral
On Eagles Wing's
As a Catholic this is mandatory but I would like this version and not the douche choir director who could not make it on Broadway.
In The Arms Of The Angel - Sarah McLachlan
Josh Groban's appearance here is coincidental but if he did come to my funeral to sing the first song I am sure he could stick around and sing this one more time with Sarah. And, yes I am on first name bases with all of these performers.
Glory of Love - Bette Midler
This brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. You gotta give a little, take a little and let your poor heartbreak a little... words to live by.
If I Ever Leave This World Alive - Flogging Molly
If you have seen 'PS I Love You' then you already understand, if you have not listen to the words. This version has a special twist for my 10th Doctor friends.
Home - Phillip Phillips
Since I will technically be going home, this gives me comfort on so many levels and what a great song to walk out of the church with.
