Most Inappropriate Song.....To Play at A Funeral

I don't know what the hell is going on around here, but I'll try and lighten the mood with a topic near and dear to my heart: death

The fact is, you're going to go to a lot of funerals in your life, and you'll have to sit through lousy organ music mostly, but that's not inappropriate. But thanks to "The Big Chill", songs that you'd never want to hear at a funeral might just pop up because whoever's in charge is an evil bastard

So what's the most inappropriate song you can imagine at a funeral?

For me, it would have to be the David Lee Roth version of "Just a Gigilo" ("Life goes on without me") :D (actually, that's a hilarious idea. Scuse me while I go change my funeral plans and cross "Sail Away" by Styx off the list)

Most people are probably thinking at a funeral, "this will soon happen to me" but they won't talk about it, so I'd go with that classic Lee Hazlewood song "Sooner Or Later We All Make The Little Flowers Grow".

Cabaret Voltaire's "Why Kill Time When You Can Kill Yourself" would probably go over just as well.

"Twat" by John Cooper Clarke, as a final flipped finger to those who may have tormented you.

"Living Too Late" and "New Face In Hell" by Mark E. Smith and his band of merry men, The Fall.

You know, World in Motion and Sub-culture aren't the best songs to play at a funeral. Neither is Touched By the Hand of God.

ATMOSPHERE

"I love a party with a happy atmosphere"

play its the end of the world by REM lol

It Had to Be You (various artists) - kinda odd, but if you think about it in the context of the people at the funeral happy they're not in the coffin...

It's Not A Funeral - Parody by Dumb Ass Kid

It's not a funeral so don't blubber anyone It's not a funeral so have fun with everyone And when I see you wearin' black i'm very stunned It's not a funeral so why you cry? No-one's died

It's not a funeral so please shout it's not a crime But when I see you moping about you've crossed the line If you should ever taste the punch tell everyone It's not a funeral So play some party games I'm not the one to blame So just chill out have a good time Help blow up balloons Greet the bride and groom Why can't this wedding end in smiles?

It's not a funeral don't be sad please anyone It's not a funeral so be glad for everyone Can I interest you in a cake at any time? It's not a funeral So thank the lovely bride and groom Woah-wooah-wooah

Mental as Anything "Live it up" ("Hey there you with the sad face come up to my place and live it up")

In that same vein..."What's New, Pussycat?"

Bobby McFerrin's Don't Worry Be Happy oughtta do the trick.
