I need a song

First I would ask that NO moderators allow anyone to know who this is, i dont want help.com in a franzy.

To start, I was recently informed my father figured has just passed away from cancer and in his will said that at his funeral, he wants me to sing a song for him of my choosing, I need some sugestion on what somg I can sing. Any ideas?

Thank you

I’m sorry for your loss, Anon. I too have lost someone just close to me recently who was a father figure. Sadly, I didn’t get the news until 2 weeks later. If you ever need to talk, we’re here for you. In the meantime, my sincerest condolences.

I’d have to say a song that has meaning to you, something very sincere. because then you can express yourself more easily through the music. People can relate to something that is more heart fiilled. not to say you wont pick something. I’m just expressing my experiences with performing. whether it be for a huge audience or with just loved ones.

With You In Your Dreams from Hanson I chose for a funeral myself, Anon.

However, Wind Beneath My Wings is touching too. And so beautiful.

oh use something with words that speak to you. i dont know what your relationship was like. but something that reflects it. maybe a start.. i dunno. i feel like i might not even know what i’m talking about. i’m not a very good singer. nor have i done something quite courageous as singing a song for someone i ahve lost.

Good, I’m glad :) It’s a wonderful song. The one by Hanson I played (not sang) at my daughter’s funeral. It was actually written in memory of their grandmother.

look here: http://www.myspace.com/jasonmossmusic
I’m not sure if he’d want you to use any of his songs, cause hes a budding artist, but his music is beautiful and i know one of them is about a death of a close friend or relative…
