I was just thinking about this thread yesterday when I heard the aria "When I am Laid" from Dido & Aeneas...I think I want someone to sing that live at my funeral. That would be great.

I don't know about you all, but I cry every time I watch the funeral scene in 'Love Actually' where they play the Bay City Rollers' 'Bye Bye Baby'.
My sister plays the harp, and she's been hired for more than a few funerals. She can play Amazing Grace in her sleep.

I think Larry Gatlin's "Midnight Choir" would be appropriate:
Do they have Mogen David in heaven,
dear Lord we all want to know,
do they have Mogen David in heaven,
if they don't, who the hell wants to go!

I would never be able to keep a straight face. I had a friend who, whenever she mentioned this aria, insisted on inserting an "l" before the second "d" in "Dido." Put that together with the title of the aria, and you see why I'd have to excuse myself from the funeral.

Although you know you'd sound kind of funny singing that aria anyway...
