I have made a cd consisting of songs that have meant a lot to me and in the event of my death I wish to be cremated and for my ashes to be taken out in a boat and sprinkled in the ocean...of course I may not have any awareness of it but the idea appeals to me more then being in the ground...I love the water and I like the thought that the form I leave would continue to travel through the world. I also don't want a sad traditional funeral and the lasting image of me to be one in death so I want those closest to me to have a peaceful experience where they can reflect on our shared experience...a relaxing boatride..listening to music and enjoying nature because it is one of my greatest joys. I don't want anyone to be sad but to be appreciative of the time we had together...thats what I want done with my body... I hope that my spirit will remain in the hearts of those that have known me.artist4perry wrote:To me the best Peter Gabriel song is: In your eyes

Sorry..don't wish to bring this down but death is an inevitable experience so I think it's good to discuss and do what someone wishes when the time comes..but I understand that it makes many people uncomfortable to talk about it..sooo..back to the music.
I'm going to do a rock/pop quiz at my funeral. I am always driving people mad by playing songs and "saying whose this then?" When they don't know I put something else on so I'm always getting accused never playing a song all the way through.
So at my funeral everybody gets an answer sheet, and rather than a service, the first 20 seconds of 15 or so songs of my choosing are played, and everybody has to write down who they think it is. I'm still working out how I'm going to mark the results from the grave, but after all the effort I have made in trying to educate people on Journey, anyone who doesn't correctly identify Don't stop Believin is going to get haunted by me for the rest of their lives.----------------
