Either the Brits have no sense of taste whatsoever, or they really hate themselves. There’s no other possible reason that something so turgid and devoid of talent can be the top requested funeral song in Great Britain.
The top 10 requested songs were:
1 – “Goodbye My Lover” – James Blunt
2 – “Angels” – Robbie Williams
3 – “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life” – Jennifer Warnes and Bill Medley
4 – “Wind Beneath My Wings” – Bette Midler
5 – “Pie Jesu” – Requiem
6 – “Candle In The Wind” – Elton John
7 – “With Or Without You” – U2
8 – “Tears In Heaven” – Eric Clapton
9 – “Every Breath You Take – The Police
10 -“Unchained Melody” – Righteous Brothers.
If ever I am submitted to a funeral featuring this song, composed and performed by the most talentless twat I’ve witnessed in many years, then I hope that I was the cause of death for that particular tasteless corpse. That, or some sort of practical joke on a deceased friend with a good sense of humor, are the only two passable reasons that I can muster for such a travesty.
… “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life” made me chuckle though.
trueTalentless, yes. Hands-full-on of the Czech’s best, you bet.

Zero taste?I want the Benny Hill theme tune at mine… including the vicar being chased round the coffin by several scantily clad young ladies.But, back to the point, the thought of James Blunt popping his clogs made me smile… he’s a wanker.
