"Going Home" by Mark Knopfler - as a pipe tune

going in to the crem; who wants to live forever- queen

going in to the furnace;disco inferno- burn baby burn

leaving; we gotta get outta this place- the animals


yeah i know we've had most of these before,but i like'em ok buddy!

Anything by Lez Dawson playing the piano

I suppose that the Corps Staff Band playing Lillibullero would have been the answer until you listen to it: "Until he cut every Englishmans throat". Sounds like a compromise between DEME(A) and MCM Div. Stag On!!

REM - everbody hurts
Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold

And on leaving the crem/church, levellers drinking song to get everyone down the pub for the rest of the day, (my funeral must be done and dusted by opening time at 11.00am).

Just the One
Do you fancy a drink
Just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long
It's a beautiful day
To waste away
There's plenty of time
For another one

[Chorus]
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind

Make mine a short
I'm getting there
But where there is
I couldn't care
There must be something
I haven't tried
Perhaps that bottle before my eyes

[Chorus]

Through the haze
The sun goes down
It's getting late
Let's hit the town
Call some friends
To paint it red
Feed the animal
In your head

[Chorus]

They throw you out
You hit the night
Go to a club
You feel alright
You get a pill
Take just half
Then take the rest of it
For a laugh

[Chorus]

Across the floor
You think you see
The one of your dreams
Your fantasy
But that last drink
Has made you blind
You need the bar
But it's hard to find

[Chorus]

It's a brand new game
You want to try,
You line them up
And it's the first to die
You think you've won
but it's time to leave
And it's back to yours
for a cup of tea

[Chorus]

You find your keys
And you all fall in
You spend an hour
And search your skins
When all seems lost
And it's looking grim
You find the bottle
Of christmas gin

[Chorus]

The rest is blank
And that's the worst
An empty head
For an empty purse
You had a laugh
Or so you think
But in the morning
You just stink

So you fancy a drink
It's just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long

les dawson,top bloke!

Loved it as a kid but David Grays version is much more funeral / suicidal orientated

Agreed! Another one by David Gray, "Meet Me on the Other Side".
