An illustration of the the danger of saying "Play this at my funeral"

A good friend of mine had a couple of masterful choices played at his funeral…

Nemo by Nightwish - it starts with a nice piano intro, then very quickly the big distorted power chords hit. If you were expecting them as I was, it’s great. If you’re a grieving grandmother and the undertakers didn’t realise just how loud it could be - possibly less so.

His other choice was Still Alive from Portal. Yes, not at all what his family expected, but perfectly in tune with his sense of humour.
