Present Tense - Pearl Jam

Do you see the way that tree bends?
Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays
A lesson to be applied
Are you getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands and studied the lines
Have you the belief that the road ahead, ascends off into the light?
Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

SIMPLE MINDS - DON'T YOU (FORGET ABOUT ME)

Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....

Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security

Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away

Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you all my name?

I say :
La la la...

Admit I've changed my mind already, although nothing to do with previous trolls.

You Am I - How Much is Enough

"Would it stain
If the lights fell down on your name
And each face began to look all the same
How much is enough?
Did you ever want to just lose touch with everybody you know?"

John Farnham's A Touch of Paradise was played at my brother in laws funeral.

I think I'd have Do You Realize? by The Flaming Lips.

For me-
Planet Funk- Chase The Sun
Not only one of my all time fav songs, but the lyrics would be very fitting also- they are open to interpretation.

We would play "who ate all the pies "

I have three chosen.
During the service
Don't Forget me by 1927
As they carry me out
The Party's Over by Cold Chisel
As I am put in the ground.
Going Home by Dire Straits

I haven't decided what I'd like yet. My dad said he wanted 'Avalon' by Bryan Ferry played at his funeral; Mum said bad luck, she was going to play 'Knees Up Mother Brown' instead. Dad wasn't too impressed. :lol:

Or...

'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet.'

Or the GWS Giants song so everyone can dance around like Cossacks and get the Vodka out.
