The narrator just told about a funeral she'd gone to, a rocker atheist cynic who had a crazy religious church funeral where they played Wind Beneath My Wings (does that count as a spoiler?)
Then I was really crying, because I was thinking of a religious funeral I went to, of a good friend. Her loved ones chose to take her death as an excuse to witness for Christ; though they never took her life as a call to behave like Christ.
I heard an interview where Eric Idle claimed Always Look on the Bright Side of Life was the most requested secular song at funerals.
Not a bad way to be rung out as far as it goes, but I'm a fan of this one.
What about you? What will they play at your funeral?
