What bway song would you like at your funeral — Page 4

I'm 36 and feel old reading this also. I would want For Good sung at my funeral. Or maybe No Good Deed .

I'm 306, and I want "Shippopy" sanged at my funeral.

My opinion on this topic is irrelevant. I'm pretty sure my wife is going to have Cell Block Tango played.

Young teachers are the best!! I had a teacher last year that snuck in her newborn puppy, and she let me (and a bunch of other students) skip 2 or her classes to hang out with her puppy while we watched an R rated movie. Ah, the thrills of public school.

That is exactly the thing that I would complain about. For one, I'm allergic to dogs, so it wouldn't be okay for one of my teachers to bring in her dog. What movie did you watch? The only R-rated movies I've seen were Religulous and Life After Tomorrow. But that is inappropriate behavior from a teacher. I would probably tell the principle. Were the other teachers aware of this? That's one of the things I hate about so many young teachers is they try to be your friend and they talk and get way off topic (just like this thread) and because the teacher didn't teach you, you have to read a whole chapter in the textbook the night before the test. Plus they think that you like arts and crafts a lot, so they make you color, even though you're in middle school and don't like to color, and then you're graded on if you color within the lines as 10% of a grade in social studies class, and you get nothing from the project and you wasted half an hour on getting the best information for your project to find out it was dropped a letter grade because you can't draw neatly.

But on the topic of the thread, I think when I'm in my fifties, I'll make a funeral iTunes playlist. I really don't want people to hear non-Broadway songs that I don't like at my funeral. I'd like Being Alive to be on it. For Good is another song I'd like. Others may include: Nobody's Side (the Idina Menzel version just because of how awesome it is), On My Own, I Dreamed a Dream (NOT the Susan Boyle version... ugh), and if I get married and divorced then I'd play Not Getting Married Today.

I, too, am allergic to dogs...but her dog was hypo-allergenic. All of her teacher neighbors knew that she had brought her dog, but the principal didn't. She did this on one of the last days of school. You usually on the last couple days of school, state tests are done with and students and teachers do absolutely nothing (principals are aware of that). We did have permission to skip those 2 classes, and the movie we watched was 'Love Actually'.

For your friend, it would be hard to know what song would fit their life. For myself, when I go I'd like them to play "All That Jazz".

La Cage's The Best of Times

AwesomeDanny-
Freshman year of High School, our World Geography teacher had us re-create the maps of whatever area of the world we were covering at the time, colored in, etc. They were worth 10% of the grade, and neatness counted. And ya know what? We learned our geography.

Don't discredit a teacher because they're young.

This is absolutely gorgeous and could definitely be appropriate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tH962Fy9IU&feature=channel_page

The song from Curtains mentioned up-thread is actually called "The Woman's Dead" so it may not be suitable for all.

Personally I've always liked the idea of having "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" being played at my funeral, even before I saw it being given the song-and-dance treatment in Spamalot.

"The Best Of Times" from La Cage is another good choice I'd consider. I just don't like the idea of melodramatic / woeful 'this is where you should cry' songs if they haven't any particular personal relevance to the deceased...
