Moss Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I'm not currently dying that I know of and it's kind of morbid but: Is there a more beautiful song than Brokedown Palace, 1972 Grateful dead? That might be my choice right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gobias Industries Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I thought of this a long time ago.

Maddie Hope Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I'm not currently dying that I know of and it's kind of morbid but: Is there a more beautiful song than Brokedown Palace, 1972 Grateful dead? That might be my choice right now.I can't decide on Brokendown Palace or Ripple, both beautiful... Besides these two I only have one other for sure on my list... Check Your Tears At The Door - drivin' n' cryin I have been thinking of Hummingbird and So Much Less Than You Think...maybe Hell is Crome... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mpolak21 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 1. The Rolling Stones – You Can’t Always Get What You Want [Let It Bleed] I'm contractually obligated to say "Immediate disqualification because of association with The Big Chill." I know you understand. I would also have that song at my funeral. Hey Jude would also be just about perfect. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I've said this before around here but I went to a funeral of a young guy's about 15 years ago (he was only like 25-26 yrs old) and they played "Attics of My Life" in his honor. really moving. I've always maintained I want "Bertha" played, just 'cause. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
