It was "AAA" when I was suicidal. Now it's probably "All That I Had".

I have it known that I want Hold My Life to be played at mine.

'The Last' might be a good choice. Not exactly a happy one though. Depends if you're going for 'hey, I had a good run' or 'well, that kinda sucked'.
Funny thing - I read this thing about most popular songs people chose to be played at their own funerals. One of the highest ranking ones was 'Another One Bites the Dust'. At least, they have a sense of humor.

Good Day is too easy a choice, but if I'm feeling self indulgent/self absorbed and morose, then "Nothing to No One". But more likely it'd be "Meet Me Down the Alley", so meet me one last time to say goodbye. Or the one he wrote for Glen Campbell (wonder if he'll ever release his own version), "Any Trouble". www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1LE-yf2XAM |

Great song obviously, thanks for tuning me in. |

youtu.be/VGdD4QJsKN4This one speaks to me as much as sixteen blue ever did. I suppose you really need to understand the time and place when it was drunkenly played though. So much morose in one song.

I honestly felt jealous of the fact that they got $60 every three days for meals.
60 bucks for food was good for 1 or 2 months of food dude.

Great song obviously, thanks for tuning me in. Yeah, it's good one---infused with Paul's trademark pathos and pulling at our heartstrings. The lyrics especially hit home and take on greater meaning hearing Campbell singing it, knowing he was fading away from Alzheimer's. There are no rules to songwriting, but interesting how Paul used a few lines from 'Wonderful Lie" for this one....or was it really the other way around? Was this one written before "Wonderful Lie"? |

When my father died in 1997, Angels Walk was a song that really got me through that experience.
I always thought that might be something played in my demise. But truthfully, it's up to those who are still alive.The music is for them, not me.

On the tombstone: 'I Told You I Was Sick'
At the funeral: 'Color Me Impressed'
