This post was inspired by this photo from my friend Rachel’s Facebook post yesterday. It got me thinking — what would people not want played at their funeral? But those songs would be exactly what I would want played at my funeral. Yes, I’m morbid.
Rachel’s husband posted the good/bad funeral songs, “The Bitch is Back” and “Paint It Black,” which are great, but y’all know me — let’s see how far we can go. That’s kind of my motto.
And so I give you: Songs Not/Or To Use For Your Funeral
