My mum past away last night, and me and my sister are planning the funeral as we were her only kids, But cant think off a song for her funeral, she was a Lovely woman always laughing and smiling and having a good time but not to the point to go get drunk every night lol.
Any way we know she wont want a depressing funeral with everyone wearing black (there will be some black not all orange and yellow and pink) But we need a song that’s sad not a wedding or celebration song a funeral song but not depressing, this song will be played while everyone is being seated in the church, any song suggestions? thanks

Hear it all the way through, and tell me what you think of it. it may be a little bit depressing but, it has style.

It would be nice to play something she liked which had meaning to her. Not knowing her makes it difficult for others to suggest something, also what age group was she?
Here’s a list of the top 10 funeral songs:
1. Goodbye My Lover – James Blunt
2. Angels – Robbie Williams
3. I’ve Had the Time of My Life – Jennifer Warnes and Bill Medley
4. Wind Beneath My Wings – Bette Midler
5. Pie Jesu – Requiem
6. Candle in the Wind – Elton John
7. With or Without You – U2
8. Tears in Heaven – Eric Clapton
9. Every Breath You Take – The Police
10. Unchained Melody – Righteous Brothershttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZUZ_twxV…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VYS8Xsxu…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28Fsi9kwz…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3XdXEJEI…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z07w4848l…
I’d recommend the last one.
Did your mother have any favourite musicians? If so, perhaps play one her favourite musician’s songs. This would go along nicely with the more colourful funeral you seem to planning and would remind people of her interests. Sorry for your loss. x
May she be in a better place with the Lord.

You said you mum liked Elvis. Maybe you could play his cover of Amazing Grace.
Sorry for your loss. Best of luck finding a fitting song!
