    Depends if I get cremated or buried;

    If it's cremation I want Disco Inferno by The Trammps

    If I get buried I want Going Underground by The Jam

    They may sound like flippant choices to some but my thoughts are that it will put a smile on people's faces and remind them of the good times together rather than mourning my passing.

    i havnt really put must thought into the music to be honest. The actual even however has certainly played on my mind.
    My top two choices are ether to be hollowed out and embalmed, then fitted with keg of specially brewed beer and use one of my arms as the pump.
    The beer would be called "Ill-Tempered Tony".

    The other idea was to be cremated and spread all over a food production plant.

    music tho......humm....... Stealers Wheel "Stuck in the middle with you" while being burried in a mass grave!!!

    Mine has always, always been Bat Out Of Hell by Meatloaf.

    The full version, natch. Pianos, the whole works. I want everyone crying, except for a few of my very best, closest friends, all of whom have to bang their heads at least a little. Everyone gets buoyed by the opening, then carried into a wave of emotion at the end.

    God, that's such an ace song. DUH-deow....DUH-deow....Duh-deow-deow-deow-DUH-DUH-DUH...
