As they carry my box in I think it will have to be "Entrance of the Gladiators".

And as my box goes behind the curtain at the crematorium it'll be...

Rushden

If I was choosing one for myself it would be "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd. Preferably the live version from their recent re-union! (9:20 of sheer bliss!)

If it was being chosen for me by my good lady? "Your Long Journey" by Alison Kraus and Robert Plant. Sounds kinda jolly, but the words are poignant... (Go listen to it on Youutube!)

I couldnt get this to play properly on Youtube, so i cant comment on the song much but the scenes in the video were fantastic, imagined myself running downstream, jumping from rock to rock and spashing about with no-one to tell me off for getting wet

, think it was about the 5 or 6 picture
