Thread Name: OK to play a recorded song at a funeral?
Subject: RE: OK to play a recorded song at a funeral?
By all means!!!

When my late wife, Judy, knew that she was dieing she asked me to write a song to be played at her funeral...

I wrote a song entitled "Dancing with the Angels" and recorded it in my makeshift studio...

I told her that I had written the song and asked her if she wanted to hear it... She didn't... She just wanted it played at her funeral...

Obviously, it would have been very difficult for me to perform this song "live" at her funeral so the recorded version was played...

It was what she wanted... Under the circumstances, it was the best I (and she could have expected) could do...
