I had to pick a song to put on my grandfathers funeral last year. Being Italian it was a bit more traditional and I went with Mozart - Ave Maria. Beyonce also does a real good version of Ave Maria but I went for the old version in the end.

Eric Clapton - Tears In Heaven, Michelle Branch - Goodbye To You, Avril Lavigne - I'm With You are some other songs some websites suggested back then.

Fade to Black has limited application (in my book anyway) as its quite obviously about suicide. Not your garden variety funeral song really!

I did once hear of someone who played, at the funeral of her husband, Pearl Jam's Better Man.

I'm not sure she fully understood what the song was about!

Metallica for sure....but the Symphony and Metallica version of Nothing Else Matters!

Trust I seek and I find in you / Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view / and nothing else matters
