If you are preparing for a relative's interment, you also have to choose a melody for the memorial. Check out some of the best tunes that are typically used for services. A nice funeral song should be a music score that the deceased would have liked. It is also important to pick something that is appropriate to the age of the deceased.
One of the music industry's most successful musicians, Frank Sinatra sang a few tunes that are popular for memorial services. One of the most commonly used is "My Way". Old people and young ones too will like this melody. This was written by Sinatra's friend Paul Anka when the former wanted to quit the showbiz industry.
For something between a classic and modern score, consider the duet of Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli. "Time to Say Goodbye" is the English rendition of his operatic hit, the "Con te Partiro." Bocelli is the biggest selling opera singer in modern times whose music has also captured the younger market.
Eva Cassidy was little known outside a small circle of music lovers in Washington where she was from. She was a vocalist and guitarist who performed for local weddings and parties. Her most popular tune, "Over the Rainbow", gained popularity in Britain after her death in 1996 when the song was played on BBC Radio.
"You Raise me Up" by Westlife is another good choice that will appeal to both the older crown and younger people. The tune has old and new versions with a number of artists lending their voice to memorialize this tune in music history. This score will be a classic favorite for a very long time.
Other musicians like rocks icon Elvis Presley, and crooners like Vera Lyn and Celine Dion also have scores that are ideal for interments. Select a funeral song that is fitting for the occasion which guests can also appreciate listening too. Make the tunes extra special by playing something your deceased relative would also like if he were still around.
