but if I had to choose just one song I'd go for
tim hecker - the work of art in the age of cultural
overproduction

I wouldn't want any "music" to fuck up the the
profound beauty of my zombie metamorphosis.

I'd like to have I will Survive by Aretha Franklin on
before I suddenly rise from my coffin as a 'Flesh-eating
Zombie' (I'll have a mechanised coffin which will open up
and thrust my corpse out with perfect timeing) just before
the chorus kicks in and scare the living daylights out of
everyone! mwa ha ha

At first I was afraid,
I was petrified,
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side,
But then I spent so many nights
just thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew stong
And I learned how to get along

And now you're back...!
*screams and faints*

I think its all very well saying what you'd like for your
funeral, but unless you tell someone else or have it written
in your will, you'll get some boring nicey nicey hymns
chosen for you by others!

I'd have whoever the fuck it was that sang that shitty song
"I'm too sexy for this..." play that song with the
additional verse, "I'm too sexy for this casket."

There must be a list of the most popular songs to be played
at funerals, I bet it'd be appalling. A relative of mine
went to one where they played "Simply the best" by Tina
Turner....

they will be there, not me... let them listen to
whatever they want to at home afterwards, whatever
they feel would be right - because i could choose a
track i would have found very beautiful, but they wouldn't
feel the same about it than i did... (and/or maybe they'd
associate it with my funeral, which is a thing i do not
really want).

but if i had the possibility listen to one last album
before i die... i think i could do a worse choice than the
Live at Sin-é recording of Jeff Buckley. (and that's got
nothing to do with the fact that it ends by a song called
"Hallelujah" - i'm not christian, it's just that... it's
such a beautiful record...)
