Elton John's "Funeral for a Friend" combination with "Love Lies Bleeding"
That's what I want the people dancing to on my grave, pissing it on is ok as well, however please pace your selves so as not to kill the grass. Kicking my corpse is out, as the continuous cost of digging it up and reburial would be quite prohibitive.

1. Good choice
And please respect other, more important mourners who may be in the area.

12. It's the 'shit sandwich' theory to me
The more bread you have, the less shit you have to eat.

15. I can agree with that
and I believe the people are starving for bread and not just the money bread, but the bread of quality information, they can count on with some degree of trust.

4. Beethoven's 9th for me. And, anyone can attempt dancing on my grave.
Seeing as how my ashes are to dumped at sea, they'd better bring their water-wings.

many ocean liners dump it in the ocean anyway. I do like your choice of Beethoven.

16. I've actually considered cremation with my ashes dumped in the lake,
so I don't imagine poking them with a stick will do any harm, but don't expect to find any loose change.

6. Good song, but tough to dance to. I give it a 65. What about "It's My Party" by Lesley Gore?
Maybe not of your era. But a better choice, nonetheless.
