How important is music in my life? It's fairly obvious that it is. So I ask myself, after attending my great grand-uncle's funeral, should I include some provision about what kind of music I wanted played at my funeral. I know this isn't the most important detail but it was either think of this or mortality of my ageing family.
So, do you go upbeat or mournful? Ironic or sentimental? Modern or classic? Secular or Religious? Personal or General? I'm not entirely sure how to answer this question, but I do know I don't want to be obvious.
EDIT (3 hours later):
I feel I should explain myself. In times of distress, we all have ways of comforting ourselves; little tricks that let us momentarily escape the unfortunate circumstances we find ourselves in. For me, it's to busy my mind with a list of trivial details. Hence this topic. I realize that it's in bad taste, and that's partly why I posted it here. The blog is personal thoughts with the complex personal social situations.
And since High Fidelity told me this would be a good song , here it is: Jimmy Cliff - Many Rivers to Cross
