Have I finally gone over the edge? Naah, that happened years ago.
I used to think that I was the only one who wanted certain music played at their funeral. Not so. I've asked a number of friends (none quite over the edge) and surprisingly enough, most had thought about it, and did have preferences. BTW, none of us are THAT old yet. My list of music for the funeral, is entirely different then the one for the party afterwards.
Considering I don't figure on having too many people coming up to the pulpit to say wonderful things about me, my list has to be damn short.
These should bring out the kleenex...2nd movement from Beethovens Violin Concerto
2nd movement from Beethovens 6th Symphony
Van Morrison, Hymns to The Silence
As many of Chopins Nocturnes as can be squeezed inMay I rest in peace,
John
