What is the one song you want to be played at your funeral?

I've had this picked out for 35 years.
The album Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd will be played in it's entirety at my funeral. Followed by the song The Night that Patty Murphy Died as performed by the group Great Big Sea (that selection is a little more recent).

I want some heavy down south hip hop at my funeral. Like Bun B, Big Krit, Killer Mike.
Then transition into some club stuff..not straight radio bullshit..but the classics ( of that era)
Platters of weed and shots
Fuck these sad ass funerals.
I want mine to be hyped up. A Party.
I don't care that the people showing up will be as old as dirt also.
I want them to live it up like we use to...Cause theyre gonna die soon too

Why limit it to one song?
I'll order a whole mixtape to be played of whatever the cool kids are listening to at the time, while people drinking cocktails around my coffin. Will have to make the ratio 4:1 girls to guys - so upon my ascent (hopefully) I'll have a sweet birds-eye view of some cleavage.

My best friend died at 28. A month before we were hanging out at his apartment having beers watching the movie Lonesome Dove. The two main characters had been best friends for something like 40 years.
Anyway I don't want to ruin the movie (so great) but we start talking about our own funerals and we both agreed that we wanted our friends to speak at them. But before they could speak they had to take a shot of whiskey.
When he died about 100 people were all out in the hot ass humid sun in Bogalusa Louisiana. I had told his mother his wishes and she didn't believe me. Before he went into the ground I stood up with a bottle and told everyone there what he wanted.
My friend was a larger than life character. At 28 he had done more than most people in several lifetimes. I took a shot and told a funny story about him. Everyone started laughing. An old lady came and grabbed the bottle "I knew Preston when he was a little boy!" took a swig and then told a story, everyone was in stitches.
Everyone came and took a drink, told a story and we stood out there in that heat sweating until the whole bottle was gone because, in that moment, while we were talking about him, he was still alive.
Afterwards his mother came up and hugged me and said "thankyou Josh"
It was one of the best moments of my life.

At my brothers funeral we played "Fly to the Angels" by Slaughter, because he loved the band and the song.
At mine it will be Wind Cries Mary, because its a masterpiece.
