I'm Going to a Funeral

Well, I know what you are thinking,"What on earth is he doing putting a song like THIS on his album?

Actually it's a lighthearted song which I have written to be played at my final event.

It all came about after I had attended several funerals which never seemed to celebrate the life of the person gone.

One in particular was a friend who was such a big laugh. Larger than life personality, wonderful sense of humour, great joker and all round proper human being.

His funeral failed to reflect this and the music played left you feeling pretty sad.

I know you are not supposed to feel overwhelming joy at these ocassions but this was totally unrepresentative of the person.

There I made the decision that I want my funeral to be more representative of me and a celebration of my wonderful time here on this planet.

I want people afterwards to feel some upliftment as they proceed to my wake for tea

(or something stronger) and sandwiches.

Hopefully this song will do the job!
