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.
If you want a classic score that will also be appreciated by the younger crowd, consider a modern opera score by Andrea Bocelli and his duet partner Sarah Brightman. "Time to Say Goodbye" is the English language version of "Con te Partiro" which was Bocelli's popular hit song. This is a famous song from way back and still a current favorite.
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.
Westlife's "You Raise Me Up" is also a good piece for an interment. This score will appeal to both young and old alike. There are many renditions to this music which has been a favorite for many decades. This will be an ideal music for memorial services for a long time well into the future.
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.
