Thread Name: OK to play a recorded song at a funeral?
Subject: RE: BS: OK to play a recorded song at a funeral?
Heck yeah, it's okay...

When my wife Judy was dieing she asked me to write a song to be played at her funeral... I wrote and recorded a song entitled "Dancing with the Angels" that I know I could not have performed live because of the emotions...

It was played and worked just they way she would have wanted it to work...

BTW, even though she asked me to write and play the song at her funeral she also told me that she didn't want to hear it so she died having never heard it...

That was her request...

But, yeah, in certain circumstances, it's appropriate...
