Sometimes It Snows In April, Mountains, and Purple Rain
This is not music, this is a trip
No, it's not a drug, it's something more hip
Don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine
Purple music does the same to my brain

Sometimes It Snows In April

But that'd be the end of the sad stuff. My funeral will be like some sort of Irish wake or something. Lots of food, alcohol, I don't want people standing around crying. I want people to have fun and tell stories about my life, and have a good ol' time. So after that, we'd move on to something like "Erotic City" hehe.

easy choice for me:


the uplifting, light, inspirational
(even slightly sexually suggestive)

ALL MY DREAMS

"goodness will guide us
if love is inside us
the colors are brighter.."


This song needs to be "officially" released..


"don't ever lose your dreams..."
YEAH!
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..

Get the pix? No funeral for me. Burn this shell. Spread its ashes (haven't decided where yet). And party like its 1999! Fuck all thay crying and sad shit.



Funny, I have it written out what I want right along with my Ins. policy!! Prince is to be played the whole time even when they put me in the oven..I want candles and no white flowers at all. I want purple flowers of all kinds everywhere and no organ music(BLAH). I'll be hovering over to make sure my wishes are carried out or there will have to be some hauntings going on!!!! smile

All your father's children, baby
U know, u are the finest of them all
U are brighter than the northern star


Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish life was never ending,
and all good things, they say, never last

Last December
-to make people think

Sometimes it Snows in April
-to make people weep

I Wish U Heaven
-to make people hopeful

The Everlasting Now
-to make people celebrate



Finally, play "Stairway to Heaven" REALLY loud. Just because people will immediately smile and think of me when they hear it. Look at my name...and figure it out.

Everyone who knows me knows this...YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO PLAY ADORE!! I CAN'T ATTEND MY FUNERAL IF THEY DON'T PLAY IT. ALSO SINCE I ONCE PLAYED VENUS DE MILO FOR 2 DAYS STRAIGHT ON REPEAT YOU COULD PLAY THAT ALSO. OH AND JUST IN CASE ANYONE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO ME YOU COULD THROW IN ANOTHER ONE OF MY FAVORITES, CONDITION OF THE HEART.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.

After my Dads funeral I played "Wherever you go, Whatever you Do" on the way home in my truck and I balled my eyes out and could barely drive. It was like my Dad was singing through Prince...gives me chills to this day!

COOL question! smile

I have actually tought about this before...

I would say, I'd opened up with "Under the Cherry Moon", right after people had sat down, the jazzy piano-playing would put them in a mood that resembles me... Then there would be the "nice" church-songs that normal people use, and at the very end, without any introduction: "Sometimes it snows in April"... smile

Ahh, I would cry in my coffin... wink

I don't think it's a strange or dumb question at all. Unfortunately, we Americans tend to not understand that death is part of the life cycle & is something to be celebrated, not feared.


Very well put, SuiteLady. eye think about this topic a lot, actually. Don't know y, but eye do. When eye read this title it was like, "Oh gosh, someone's reading my mind!"

4 me, it will b "A Case of U" from the ONA piano CD, followed by "Purple Rain." eye have already put this provision in writing.

Deftly Sometimes it snowes in April, and a few other ones, not-prince. Oh, and i'd insist they'd play full versions, 'cause sometimes they have the guts 2 cut 'requested' songs short at funurals, and i think it's about the most horrible thing they can do.
