Pick A Hymn 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.

If you want a classic score that will also be appreciated by the younger crowd, consider a modern opera score by Andrea Bocelli and his duet partner Sarah Brightman. "Time to Say Goodbye" is the English language version of "Con te Partiro" which was Bocelli's popular hit song. This is a famous song from way back and still a current favorite.

"Over the Rainbow" is another popular score for interments. It was sung by Eva Cassidy. This singer and her music were not popular during her lifetime except in her hometown in Washington. Her tunes were played on a British radio station after her death and became more all the rage after that.

"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 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.
