Pick A Hymn For Funeral For Your Beloved

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.

A modern band called Westlife has also produced a popular music score for memorial services. Their melody "You Raise Me Up" is a tune that young people can relate too. It came from a classic score that even older people will appreciate. It is something ideal for interment services with younger people in attendance.

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.
