I am a naturally morbid person. nice happy guy, but think about death a lot (the best song I have written is about my funeral!! "No flowers when I die, I don't want the tears that you cry" © 2000 - Blink Eden)

 

I wonder about what songs I would like played at my funeral, and at the moment I would like :-

 

VNV Nation - Beloved

 

"Grant me wings that I might fly

My restless soul is longing

No pain remains no feeling

Eternity awaits"

That song actually makes me smile, as it brings up images of completion and peace

 

Queensryche - Silent Lucidity

 

"I will be watching over you

In silent lucidity"

 

Does anyone else have thoughts like this, what songs would you like played?

Fuckin' hell, not listened to my Queensryche albums in a while !

Prefer the stuff off Operation : Mindcrime tho ...

Tis very morbid

Mindcrime was great, got the Livecrime box set, musically I have moved on tho, but Silent Lucidity is a class song, and I think it is a "good" funeral song too

I wonder about what songs I would like played at my funeral

 

funny, i was thinking about this the other day... at my funeral i would like The Sunshine Underground by The Chemical Brothers

 

alasdair

i have a very morbid side, but hey ho i enjoy it!!!

Our band is morbid, we do not (as a general rule) write happy songs. It does mean, however, if I have a good couple of months, I don't write any decent songs
