The Bereavement Register's crack team of polers have come up with a list we can all relate to. That is, if it weren't for the songs that actually made the list. But the idea is a sweet one.
Post your death march tune of choice!
The survey, involving 5,000 people and carried out by The Bereavement Register, found 51% of people know what song they want played at their funeral.The survey also suggests that 79% have discussed what songs they would like to have played.
Mark Roy, founder, of The Bereavement Register, said: "The top 20 really shows how far we have come in terms of saying goodbye. Gone are the dirges of yore, instead we are seeing contemporary music that is easier to relate to.
