Honourable mention to this as well:



In particular the section from 2:50 onwards. To think that this is the voice of an incredibly unwell man, having his body shut down before him.

When the band recorded the song in 1990, Mercury's condition had deteriorated to the point that May had concerns as to whether he was physically capable of singing it. May recalls; "I said, 'Fred, I don't know if this is going to be possible to sing.' And he went, 'I'll f**king do it, darling' — vodka down — and went in and killed it, completely lacerated that vocal".

You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're alright.

Some call it the suicide song, but I think it is sensational. Enjoy...

I haven't quite worked out my third but this would one of them because of family connections.



And this would be the final one: I played it as such at both my mother and father's funeral: they were both Scottish exiles.



Let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me
And now I'm going home

Love it.

Went to a wedding when I lived in the midlands - some mates were big blues fans and the younger brother was marrying a girl who was a Villa fan.

The best man's speech was basically

"We would like to welcome Sarah into our family, even though she comes from a family of Villa fans. So all I can really say is "Sh1111t, on the Villa..."

That night, there were ongoing punch ups at the reception. No idea if the marriage lasted but it wouldn't help having two families who basically hated each other.

You’ve all taken this far too literally. I was expecting completely inappropriate-for-a-funeral football songs to imagine!

“Always look on the bright side” isn’t just too literal - it’s also the tune them lot up the road use to sing about us!


Apologies for completely detailing the thread!

Addressing the song in your OP, my god I'd hate for my funeral to even say the N word, let alone devote a song to them. They are an irrelevance and if my life was that worthless that they deserve a song, I doubt there will be many people at my funeral.

Although you've ruined Always look on the bright side" for me. I'll have to just settle for Sousa as I slip behind the curtain now.

I frequently flip between what songs I find uplifting, shall we say for want of a better description and what songs I find are the most emotionally devastating for a funeral

Depends what mood I'm in.

I went to a non-league (well, Highland League() game today - Clachnacuddin vs Banks O'Dee and in the Grant Street Stadium club shop you can get black T-shirts that have a yellow star within a white circle that has 'The Clach' emblazoned over it. I was slightly tempted.
