Select A Funeral Song For The Deceased

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.

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.

Eva Cassidy was little known outside a small circle of music lovers in Washington where she was from. She was a vocalist and guitarist who performed for local weddings and parties. Her most popular tune, "Over the Rainbow", gained popularity in Britain after her death in 1996 when the song was played on BBC Radio.

"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.

Artists like Elvis, Celine Dion, and Vera Lyn among others, have made major contributions to the music industry. Many of their scores have been used in special occasions including interments. Pick a funeral song that will mean something special to you and your deceased relative.
