I just read an article about an 18-year old girl shot by the police because the officers felt "threatened" by her whielding a knife. It's a quite controversal, strange case and a very, very sad story which you can read here:

However, the article features this paragraph:

 

MacDonald's mother Lisa Marie Guy bent down to kiss her one last time before taking her seat. It was half-way through the service while listening to Coldplay's song "Yellow" that Guy broke down, shaking her head several times.

 

I know that it's a sad thing to think about, but what do you think about having a Coldplay song at YOUR funeral? Some songs suit perfectly for remembering a person, both giving you a good and an incredibly sad feeling. What song would YOU like - which song represents your life best, with which song would you like your family and friends to say Goodbye?

 

If that's a stupid thread/thought, then I apologise.. But I thought of that a couple of times before, because one of my last wishes, in this state of mind, would be having a Coldplay song at the ceremony..

I'd have crazy frog played- just to annoy my mates.

 

sad story.

oh, well i think that would be a good idea to have your favourite song at your funeral, and if it is a coldplay's that would be better... - i don't think a marylin manson song could be appropriated for a funeral..

goodbye

I've always thought of that...I'd like a Coldplay song to be played at my funeral. Some ideas I had were The Scientist, Amsterdam, and Fix You

Fix you is a great song :)

And many more..

Yellow also, etc :)

I'll see you soon

I forgot about See You Soon!

 

That's also a great choice..so beautiful..

Yep but i forget also much songs :)

yeah...see you soon would be great...

Haha :D yep but it's true

i want for you on my funeral, i allready told my mom :smug: , just in case

Amsterdam.

 

Fantastic song, rarely mentioned on here.

haha, yeah.. it's weird but you can die every second.. sorry sounds weird :p

i allready planned my funeral :thinking:

oke that sounds weird, but i just know what songs they are going to play and were i'm having my funeral, that sort of stuff, its just that its my funeral and altough i'm not gonna be there its the last bit of personality i can bring to the people

Yeah that's true :)

wich 3 songs wil you play at your funeral and why ?

3 songs...

-> AROBTTH

-> HYSTW

-> GPASUYF

special reasons ?

My 3 songs:

 

* One Coldplay song - I can't choose one and it doesn't really matter because I'm in love with so many of their songs and each of them means a lot to me!

* Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah (it's the most emotional song I know and it just HAS TO be played at my funeral)

* Beatles - Here comes the sun (my favourite song ever, no matter which version - may it be Beatles, Oasis, Coldplay, whatever.. I just NEED this song!)

Hmm i have to think about that question !

woohoo i made you think ! :smug: :P

( i think about these things allt the time )

A Ghost...definately.

 

It's absolutely excellent for funeral.

 

"They're calling you

Some kind of ghost

But I know that's not true

 

Cause time and time again I spoke

And I have spoke with you

 

They're saying I

Am some kind of ghost

But that's so hard to say

 

Maybe I'll go

Maybe you're safe

 

No there's no way to say...

 

And I would love you

To come over

And I would love you

Too"

Hey Petra!

 

Did you listen to the clip I sent you? I can't make another clip right now, because the guitar sounds weird and I don't know how to tune it! :P

oooh and 'Til Kingdom Come!' I almost forgot about this song...

I just remembered because I am listening to it now!

But this song would be such a great choice also...

I think the same xpixierosexx vbmenu_register("postmenu_1781022", true); ... Til Kingdom Come!...a very special song...!

Yes, that would be one of my top picks! :)
