    As Pimento has said, we were directed by the FD to the wesleymedia site with a reference number for our crem, so if a song we wanted wasn't there we could ask wesleymedia to obtain it, if possible, & download it to the crem. We also asked the FD to chop a very long guitar intro from 1 of the songs so it would start with the actual singing.

    Wesleymedia has a 'drop down' list of crematoriums 'signed up' with them, not sure about Churches.
    Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

    No issues from anyone except if you’ve ever listened to the full version of Tom Jones “green green grass of home” it’s not actually that suitable for a funeral!

    The Wesley Media site has a surprising number of song titles including the word f*ck.

    Although there are rules for what music you can have at a wedding, there are none for a funeral and you can have whatever you want.
    I remember my son asking whether there was any Slayer or Megadeath in the database and to my surprise, there is!
    Chacun a son gout, eh?

    I suppose Megadeath is quite apt.
