jukel123 9,402 Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Been to two funerals recently where this was played. I heard on radio it was becoming almost as popular as 'My Way' as a funeral song. Anybody explain why? Asking for a friend. I'm not planning on leaving for a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love Dylan so will happily listen to his versions... But Adele can belt out Let me Feel your love Or Jimi Hendrix doing All along the Watchtower.. Eels do a good version of Girl from the North Country.. I also think Timothee Chalemets version from the film.with the actress who.plays Joan Baez is amazing...he's some talent that lad The Eels !……top shout mate ! A band you don’t hear nearly enough about but who are in fact, awesome ! Beautiful Freak is imho one of the all time great albums ! My personal favourite song is “Guest List”, it’s one of those songs that you feel could have been written about you…. Magic name drop there big lad…..nice one By the way, talking of Hendrix….his version of little wing of far superior to Stevie Ray Vaughn’s imho Edited July 23 by WILF 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"My Way" written by Paul Anka for Frank Sinatra after Sinatra had told him he was done with showbiz, he wrote the lyrics in English from a French hit he heard whilst on holiday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
