Funeral song (singer, beatles, Nirvana, Eminem, Queen)

ok, I had a pretty long talk about this with my friends last night, and I thought i'd bring the discussion over here. so what songs would you want played at your funeral? my picks would be the beatles - let it be and in my life, and collective soul - the world I know.

I think i'd want Time of your life by greenday...because they use it a lot at graduations and everything and what's death but a graduation when you're moving on from this life to whatever comes next?

very true.. too generic though..

I would have the theme music to The Godfather done in italian violin live.

Funeral For A Friend by Elton John, maybe
Runnin by Tupac ft Biggie, produced by Eminem....

I think I'll stick with Amazing Grace, seems more appropriate
