My funeral playlist

Admit it. At one time or another, you've wondered what songs we'll play at your funeral. I considered my funeral tonight and decided on the playlist I want at mine, with specific instructions in parenthesis for each song. There should also be a karaoke machine there...just in case anyone feels inspired. I think it'd be hilarious.

#1. I will Survive (best if this starts then someone in the front row frantically whispers "THATS THE WRONG CD!" before finally shutting it off after the first chorus).

#2. Gonna Fly Now (at the end of the service. If it's an open casket service I'd appreciate it if someone could come prop my arms up straight in the air for this number).

#3. I like Beer by Tom T. Hall. Wait...that belongs in Dustin's funeral play list. Nevermind.

#4. Convoy (the hearse should play this on a bullhorn while driving to the graveyard). Can my hearse be a chartreuse microbus?

#5. Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good (if I was run over by a bus).

#6. I believe I can fly (if I was in a plane crash). Would that make it "I believed I could fly"?

#7. Standing Outside the Fire (If my house burns down because I left the coffee pot on).

#8. One Way Or Another by Blondie (If I was stabbed in the back by someone I know).

#9. Isn't She Lovely (another for the open casket service...)
