    Bright Eyes - Bowl of Oranges

    If you know this group I'm sure some of you have a hard time with Conor's vocals. Regardless, he's one of the best songwriters of this generation.

    I wish I could rep you. The image of this song being blasted out of nowhere while some dude is in a coffin was hilarious.

    I've always loved this song. I still remember it when my best friend drowned in a boat while hunting bears at 13. The boat capsized; he couldn't figure out the exit to the door upside down; the uncle finally gave up when he stopped hearing the screams.

    After this, any AC/DC and RHCP is fine.

    Best funeral song ever. I'd want this, if it hadn't been already taken:

    A few that I like that would seem appropriate, off the top of my head

    "For Those About to Rock" intro would be a nice casket-lowerer. Or when they're closing the coffin at the memorial service. Or maybe "Mother and Child Reunion." At the very end of the burial they'd play the "medley" from Baytown Lee: "Are You From Dixie", "Waiting for the Robert E. Lee" and "Washington and Lee" swing. They would play that over the intercom on Friday mornings during fall and it just got me in a good mood.

    The pall bearer's procession would be CSNY's "Ohio," Young's "Old Man" or Steve Winwood's "Back in the High Life" but none of them with any vocals.
