Pick A Funeral Song For The Deceased

If you need to choose a good tune for a loved one's interment, consider any of the top 5 choices that are usually played at memorial services. A good funeral song would be something that the deceased would have liked. It is also important that you pick something age appropriate for such a sentimental occasion.

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.

"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.

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 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.
