Pick A Song For Funeral For Your Dearly Departed

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.

Frank Sinatra's "My Way" is a classic tune that has been used for many decades. Older people may appreciate this choice more than the younger set. Paul Anka wrote the score with Sinatra recording it in 1968. Anka's inspiration to write this tune was from Sinatra's own sentiments of quitting the music business.

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.

The score "Over the Rainbow" is also a popular tune today although the singer, Eva Cassidy was not famous till after her death. This melody was played on UK radio after she had passed away and became an instant hit. She was previously only known in Washington, in her home town.

A modern band called Westlife has also produced a popular music score for memorial services. Their melody "You Raise Me Up" is a tune that young people can relate too. It came from a classic score that even older people will appreciate. It is something ideal for interment services with younger people in attendance.

Other musicians like Celine Dion, Elvis Presley, or Vera Lyn have made contributions to music used for interments. A lot of their compositions and melodies have been used for various occasions. Choose a timeless funeral song that means something special to you and your dearly departed.
