Pick A Funeral Hymn 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.

If you want a classic but still a current favorite, consider "Time to Say Goodbye" sung by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman. This is an English version of Bocelli's classic opera song, the "Con te Partiro". It is one of the most sellable of the singer's melodies.

"Over the Rainbow" is another popular score for interments. It was sung by Eva Cassidy. This singer and her music were not popular during her lifetime except in her hometown in Washington. Her tunes were played on a British radio station after her death and became more all the rage after that.

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 Celine Dion, Elvis Presley, or Vera Lyn have made contributions to music used for interments. A lot of their compositions and melodies have been used for various occasions. Choose a timeless funeral song that means something special to you and your dearly departed.
