Default Music at your funeral

Apologies if this has been done to death already, but nothing showed up in a quick search, so...

Recent events have got me thinking about this one. If you were to plan it in advance, what music would you want played at your funeral?

I had a think about this on my way home from work earlier and settled for the Sid Vicious cover of My Way.

What about you?

I always joke that I`d have "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead" but I`d like Sarah Mclachlan "In the Arms Of The Angel"

Mate of mine died of MS a few years back - he was only 34 at the time.
I would follow his lead - Who Wants To Live Forever - Queen.

Terry Jacks - "Seasons in the Sun"......decided when I was about 8/9.

Whether or not with the alternative lyrics

"we had joy we had fun chasing skinheads in the sun,
but the joy didn't last..........cos' the b#stards ran too fast".
