Song 24 – A song that you want to play at your funeral...  – ‘Re.Stacks'– Bon Iver

Bon Iver

This seems a whole lot less presumptuous than yesterday's song.  I did know what this song would be for ages, ‘Hallelujah’ by Jeff Buckley, but since the Alexandra Burke X Factor cover and that whole fuss, it’s been ruined for me.  I might pick the Colin Hay song that I chose as my favourite or this by Bon Iver.

It’s far too morbid to dwell on!  It’s a reflective song though, which seems appropriate, and it’s six minutes long which should make it easier for everyone to leave in an orderly manner.

I don't know why I'm worrying, the crying of the thousands of distraught women will drown out the music anyway.
