But if you did you'd be really pissed off they got the wrong song/version.

I want the church to break into a Haka. As my coffin is carried to the grave I want everyone to crouch into a Haka stance with shaking hands as the coffin passes them. Then as Im lowered I want an all in Haka but each do their own actions finishing with crescento of howls and a jump in the air fists pumping.

The Mrs. says no chance to my choice of "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" :( . So it looks like it`s "All I See Is You" Dusty Springfield. A real tear jerker. Beautiful song though.

Obviously this one as everyone enters.
After half of the service is complete we'll have a quick break, so people can dry their eyes, with this little ditty.
And this one to end it off as I disappear to be cremated.
Oh I hope the service is on an uncomfortably hot day.

The correct answer is probably "That's the story of my life," by the Velvet Underground.

Meh, I'd like to go out with "Evolved as One" by Napalm Death.

I prefer Prison Sex by Tool, and it would be quite appropriate given the thousands of hours of my life that I have wasted on this forum.
