In Memory Of Anna

"My childhood best friend passed away suddenly in a car wreck this past November at 27. She also had a funeral playlist saved on her phone and her family used it! She was such a jokester and hilarious person. It gave us all a big laugh to find out she had already picked out her songs. It was a great way to honor her wishes and such a beautiful thing to have her put some humor in to a situation from beyond the grave. It really honored her memory in a way I won’t ever forget. Miss you, Anna!"

When One Song Isn't Enough

"I’ve actually got a funeral playlist on my phone in case I hit the deck earlier than expected 😂😂"

"Just a quick edit because I didn’t expect my morbid need to control my funeral would blow up so much😂"

"I’m not tech savvy in any which way so I can’t upload the link to the comments.. but I have written the songs in the comments somewhere… they are the only songs on the playlist, there isn’t anymore to add."

"Yes, I’m 43, yes, I’m British. Yes, I’m an Inxs fan, but there’s no Inxs songs on the agenda. No, I’m not from up north!! Bittersweet symphony is timeless!! I don’t go much on the slow stuff by oasis, but that one hits different! No, I’m not crazy, I like to plan ahead! I don’t drink alcohol at all, and I have a great relationship with my mother 😂 hit the deck IS a metaphor for dying in my world 😂"

Something Evil's Lurking In The Dark

"I want to hire a lookalike of myself who will pop out of a coffin and perform the Thriller choreography."

I have actually entertained this question, myself.

One of my favorite tunes is "Graceful Ghost Rag" by William Bolcom.

It's a somber tune without being totally depressing. To me, gentle ragtime song represents a soul coming to terms with its new plane of existence and making the most of it.

It brings me peace listening to it, and I hope to have the loved ones I will eventually leave behind feel the same.
