Songs that should never be played at a funeral.

[alaskanseminole]

I'll go first--She Hates Me (Puddle of Mudd).

While on active duty, a co-worker of mine was pissed he was forced to attend a funeral for an Airman who was being posthumously promoted to E-5. He committed suicide in the parking lot of a strip club over a stripper who dumped him. He rolled in to the parking lot with his windows down blasting that song.

What other songs are inappropriate for a funeral?

It was played at my uncle's funeral, per his request. A lot of side glances that day.

My son's mother-in-law passed away a couple years ago. She was a child of the 80's and her children had 80's hits playing. Lots of Bay City Rollers.

During my ex-wife's, husband's funeral there was a video/slide show with several of his favorite songs in the background.

Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die) - Joe Diffie?

...or maybe that's actually a good one.

I don't think "Sex and Candy" would be an appropriate play.

I recently attended a funeral that played YMCA in its entirety.

This was not a "pride" thing or related to that in any way......apparently the guy just liked the song.
