What 3 tracks would you have played at your funeral if you
were to leave this life tomorrow?

Boards of Canada - Magic Window
John Cage - 4:33
Coil - Absolute Elsewhere.

or Ventolin... or some Merzbow.

(if i wanted to care about my funeral seriously, Coil - Rosa
Decidua... but it's far too beautiful for my funeral, and i
don't really want to make people listen to my music when i'm
dead)

Sigur Ros - Von
The Caretaker - We Cannot Escape The Past

Lush 3.1 by Orbital

My mate once said he wanted it played at his funeral

My sister heard it on another occasion and said
"This musics brilliant , when I die I want this played at my
funeral !"

For that sheer weirdness it now seems apt funeral music. Its
also a really spiritual and uplifting track

1) How Much is that Doggie in the Window

2) I Feel Like Chicken Tonight

3) Jeopardy "guessing" music

I'll be dead so I won't be annoyed, but everyone else will.
It is a well known rule of advertising that nothing pounds
home memories and associations like annoyance. I will
achieve a kind of temporary immortality through the angry
memories. :-)

Ever since I first heard Roads I've had an imaginary movie
scene in my head where some guy is pushing a dead girl out
into the middle of a lake on some kind of raft.

When it reaches the middle of the lake it bursts into flames
and the sky is filled with fireworks.

track on a tapedeck or something and bein all, "he wanted
this song played at his funeral".

Chopin. Funeral marches. Period.

More numerous reasons that I could count, here's one... I
love to listen to IDM, make IDM, live IDM... but I'm not
going to die to IDM

nothing really. well at least nothing stupid like wacky
electro. why would i want to subject my family to that?

anyway, by the time i do go, ill probably vote for something
classical. something bach (and Not air on a g-string!)

Thomas Tallis: Spem In Alium, simply cos it's my favourite
piece of music ever, and has been for ages

Mazzy Star: Into Dust, just cos... well just listen to it

Apples In Stereo: Stream Running Over, just cos it'd change
the mood completely. It's got hand claps, gusto and
everything.
