My friend died young, and at his wake, the funeral home played a mix cd of songs that were evocative of my friend. Many were sentimental and soulful. But someone snuck Biz Markie's "Just a Friend (Baby You Got What I Need)"
Everytime that damn song came on we all fell out laughing. It was a sweet moment of joy in a time of agony. It ws a brilliant move by his sister to include that song.

What song(s) would you want played at your wake, funeral, or memorial? It can be sappy, funny, whistful, or whatever.
Me:
*Tear Jerker song: "One" sung by Mary J. Blige and U2
*Uplifting song: "Dirt Off Your Shoulders" by Jay-Z
*LOL song: "Sister Christian by Night Ranger (Motorin! What's your price for light?) - It's an inside joke with my friends because I love the movie "Boogie Nights" so much.
