Pick A Song For Funeral 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 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.

The score "Over the Rainbow" is also a popular tune today although the singer, Eva Cassidy was not famous till after her death. This melody was played on UK radio after she had passed away and became an instant hit. She was previously only known in Washington, in her home town.

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.

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.
