Kat - how did you know? I've just logged on with the intention of posting a "which song can't you sing without breaking down in". I had to sing a song at a funeral today, a dear sister in Christ, and was desperate to do her justice. I was asked to do one piece ('May the choirs of angels come to greet thee sort' of thing) which I did at a funeral about 5 years ago. I've never been able to sing it since. I was very relieved when it was changed to a version of Psalm 23 (the Lord's my shepherd) to the tune 'She moved through the fair'. But now, I don't think I'll be able to do it again! It was sung during the anointing with holy water (open coffin) and apparently there wasn't a dry eye in the house. I stood in the church gallery to sing it, because I find that if I am emotional, seeing someone else crying will start me off.

Thank you for the intuition that made you refresh this thread.
