Inappropriate Funeral Music
Johnny C:
Heard a story about a funeral where the deceased's request was that a tape of a hymn be played at the wedding, but the preacher didn't bother taping over the rest of the side so the hymn cut out and in came:
If you want my body
And you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know...
Said preacher was reportedly very embarrassed. (I read this in the Bathroom Reader so it may be suspect.)
Night Rocker:
Stuff that wasn't found on my iPod at my time of death. I dont want to hear anything relgious, cause that's not me. Nothing sad either. So nothing else then Belle & Sebastian.
Scytale:
Immolation - "Into the Everlasting Fire" would be pretty inappropriate as would Slayer - "Hell Awaits"
Melodic:

You get huge points for Uncle John's. Which book was this in? I've been meaning to update my collection.
ON TOPIC: "Black Cadillacs" by Modest Mouse would be awesome at a funeral.
Praeserpium Machinarum:

I would play that Scala choir version but let's not nitpick.
Songs perfect for a funeral:
Shakira - Whereever, Whenever
lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you don't confuse them with mountains
Ricky Martin - Livin' La Vida Loca/She Bangs
Jennifer Lopez - Jenny from the Block
Juanes - La Camisa Negra
La macarena!!!
Basically a lot of latino pop.
Sugarcubes - Motorcrash(for someone who was killed in a car accident obviously)
Queen - We Are the Champions, Fat Bottomed Girls
The Ronettes - Be My Baby
Oingo Boingo - Heard Somebody Cry
It isn't true! I am not a ghost without a soul/Come! listen to my heart - you feel the beat?
A lot of Xiu Xiu and of course the entire output of Zombina and the Skeletones. Even though I will insist that they play Nobody Likes You at my funeral. I demand it.
