30 Day Song Challenge, Day 24: A Song You Want To Play At Your Funeral

Well, we covered the happiness of the wedding tunes but what exactly would I want for when I fade away into nothingness?

Believe it or not, I have a playlist on my iPod called “Epitaph” that includes a bunch of songs that I want played either at my viewing or at least the actual funeral. While most are instrumentals, there are a few songs mixed in, including this one:

Genesis – “Afterglow”

I will specifically request that this song be either the last song played before my coffin is closed, at the gravesite near the end of the funeral, etc. I want it to be the final song played in my (dead) presence.

Honorable Mention: Louis Armstrong – “What A Wonderful World”

Depeche Mode – “Stjarna”
