I don't plan on a service but if I did it would be all Elvis rockabilly. Or Nick Cave & the bad seeds. it's a toss-up

I don't think there's any songs to play for taking out the trash...

If I were of the country/western persuasion, "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers would be a no-brainer...
(ah, screw it, I like this one; add it to the procession playlist...)

And the night got deathly quiet
And his face lost all expression
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right

Every gambler knows
That the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep

'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep"

And when he'd finished speakin'
He turned back toward the window
Crushed out his cigarette
Faded off to sleep

And somewhere in the darkness
The gambler he broke even
But in his final words
I found an ace that I could keep

Jewish funerals don't have music as music is associated with festivity and happiness, so there won't be any songs at my funeral. Porbably a good thing as I wouldn't know what to choose

I honestly don't want a funeral. I have no friends and don't really get along with none of my family. I would just prefer my mom and dad (if he's not pissed off) to throw my ashes somewhere nice and peaceful. Ideally in japan but ehhh,I won't be too picky since I'm dead.

This would be a "fun" song for my funeral. But here's the thing: listening to this song makes me glad to be alive for just a little bit longer.
And seeing a new generation turned on to my favorite music, hearing it for the first time vicariously through fresh ears, renews just a bit of my own youthful optimism from an earlier time; for a time, at least. Reaffirms my favorite quote from Nietzsche, and my personal motto, "Without music, life would be a mistake."

When I die and they lay me to rest/
Gonna go to the place that's the best/
When I lay me down to die/
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky/

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky (spirit in the sky)/
That's where I'm gonna go when I die (when I die)/
When I die and they lay me to rest/
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best/
