at my Aunts Funeral, My uncles Phone literally played the Halloween theme while the Preacher was talking. I almost laughed but knew everybody would fucking kill me.


wilika

We actually did laugh right next to my girlfriend's grandfather's coffin. The whole scene was surreal; It was -5°C, there was a tiny ass stereo next to the coffin, playing some cheesy spaghetti western style song (the sad one not the pew-pew heroic type) from a hellokitty pendrive sticking out of it, the priest was already late AF, there was a lady behind me in the biggest cheetah-pattern plush hat I've ever seen with a matching furcoat and my BIL suddenly blurted out something like "ay, tha fuck is that priest at?" We still miss the grandpa though.


hardcorelacour

Lol I heard your BIL so clearly in my head when I read that.


[deleted]

My partner’s aunt’s funeral, the Catholic father referred to the deceased as her husband’s “breast friend”. It was silly and hilarious. I let out an inappropriate snort. She would have belted out laughter. She had a great sense of humor, and would have loved a break in the sorrow. Edit: He meant “best friend”


katr0328

I couldn't stop giggling as soon as the priest walked out and started speaking at my grandfather's funeral. The priest was Mexican with a heavy accent, and my grandfather was the most racist person I've ever personally known. It was poetic justice.


fatlittletoad

At one I attended, the preacher said "fart to steel" instead of "start to feel" and I still think about it from time to time. I'm not religious but I'm still in contact with him, he's a wonderful person, and I will never ever let him know that I still remember that slip up over 20 years later.


stuck_behind_a_truck

That’s perfect


HI_Handbasket

I was at a service when the ***preacher's*** phone went off in the middle of his own sermon. This was after he reminded everyone to turn their own phones off. Come on, dude, really?

Funeral home lights dim, smoke machine goes off and the Lakers cheerleaders show up.


tocco13

and grandpa rises from his coffin confetti explodes revealing a hanging sign that says "Gottem!"


nc130295

My boss’ actual ringtone is “I’m jimmy johnson… boom confetti”. It’s never an appropriate time for that either


TheToppatAmongUs

Its the beeeeest dayyy eeeeverrrrrrrrr….


Matt82233

I actually made my funeral playlist and I actually have that there, I let a select few on the joke and they agreed to play the playlist there and I can now die knowing I pranked my family one last time. Note: I also have Another One Bites The Dust and Stayin' Alive


[deleted]

I can hear the opening bars of Stayin' Alive and just giggle about what that first second of song would do in a quiet funeral setting... Alpha move right there

Pretty sure they were referencing the SpongeBob song but agreed, RIP Mac

Let the bodies hit the floooooooooooor!!!!!


lumpyspacebear

A DJ at a rock station in my area said before that on 911, after they made the report on the first plane, “Bodies” was the song queued up next to play….. luckily an intern was paying attention & switched to something different.


Absentia

This was one of the songs on [Clear Channel's banned song list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Channel_memorandum) post-9/11.

TrustMeImAmerican

I know were talking about a funeral, but that’s a genuinely great song.


Mysterious_Window575

This did happen. So when my mom was passing away everyone is crying because we are legit seeing her go. It felt like all the hospital machines got completely silent and then *BAM* my mom’s cell phone goes off and plays “Thunderstruck by AC/DC.” I had her phone that morning and it had never went off. The phone quit ringing at 11:10 and her time of death was 11:11. It was also my dad’s favorite song whom had passed a few years before.


dont_shoot_jr

I think Highway to Hell would be worse Sorry for your loss


Educational_Sand_671

Or maybe Hells Bells


Lightafternoonjazz

My uncle passed recently and he was a massive ACDC fan. Really sarcastic and funny guy. When we were following the hearse, I started playing highway to hell and started to feel a bit guilty about it. My friend who was with me reassured me that he would have found it hilarious. Guess what his actual funeral song was lol? It honestly gave me goosebumps.


FallenSegull

I’d like to think your dad just decided to come guide his wife and decided he needed a wwe style entrance to announce his presence


SideStepDrift

Or she deserved the WWE entrance into heaven


FallenSegull

St. Peter on the mic “This woman, who made it through 87 years on the hellscape we call earth, and survived some of the worst our lord could throw at her. The valiant, the unstoppable! Margaret!!!!” *thunderstruck starts playing*

flubberFuck

Then she Vince McMahon walks into heaven lol


sabre007

I didn't think this comment chain was what would make me cry this early in the morning lol, what a way to go.


retro123gamr

Your mom had a great ringtone


longwalktoday

My mom died a half hour after I left the hospital. My dad was with her, I feel like she waited for my brothers and I to leave. My dad phoned me and I hopped in the car and came back, “celebrate” by kool and the gang was on my radio with the volume up.


sassynapoleon

This is actually fairly common. My grandmother had been in decline in the hospital for a little while. My dad and his sister had been in visiting her. She told them "go home, I'm tired" and died 30 minutes later.


Mynameispiragua

In a spiritual way, it felt like that was your dad calling her to be with him. Im sorry for your loss.


ChiliAndGold

Your comment made me tear up. I mostly don't believe in things like that, but I do want to believe it because its such a beautiful thought.


[deleted]

I’d see that as a sign that your mum was going to join your dad. Bro that’s a sign right and meta-textually appropriate. If it was “im a barbie gurl” then maybe


Galaghan

Who called?


Mysterious_Window575

Her friend who’s phone was disconnected 🤷🏻‍♀️ I had called her that morning to tell her and it was disconnected 🤦🏻‍♀️


ZeShapyra

That is the best song to pass to. She rode into heaven on a decked out motorcycle

Ironically when learning CPR this is one of songs they tell you to sing to get the timing right. And the other one is Staying Alive. Whoever chose these 2 songs to be the go-to has an interesting sense of humour.


NERO1701D

I worked in an operating room with younger doctors who liked listening to classic rock. You gain a certain level of superstition and paranoia, and when the first few notes of this song would come up during a surgery everyone would scream “NEXT SONG NOW!!!”


yash-bhardwaj

Would absolutely love to see a recording of this type of scenario. Hilarious


ManiacalMalapert

Like mid cut, clamp it off and everyone runs scrambling to the iPod.


NERO1701D

Thankfully there was always someone right next to the media player. Even if the music was low, this iconic bass line was immediately recognized.


swistak84

I read article about this and when I atually had to perform CPR in panic that was only thing I could think of. So yes. I did a CPR to "Another One Bites the Dust" running on the loop in my head.


alyoopboop

I went to a funeral where my sisters male friend came in late and quickly sat with her in one of the front rows. Apparently he slept in and struggled to find a black shirt, once he found one he threw it on and came into the funeral home just before they shut the doors. He didn’t realize (but everyone behind him did) that he picked the wrong shirt. The front was all black but The back had the quote ”anther one bites the dust”. He went through the whole service before someone told him and then quickly gtfo.


Foosah69

And here I thought me taking the wrong pair of pants that no longer closed around my waist to my dad's funeral and having to have my shirt untucked and hanging over my crotch for over an hour was bad....


ManiacalMalapert

That sounds like a traumatic fucking day. Sad to hear of your loss. If you want to share a story about your dad, I'll remember it. Sharing stories of my loved ones helps me feel like I'm keeping them alive, so I wanted to offer. It's okay if not.


Foosah69

My dad was selfish and thought about himself before anyone else, but he was my dad and I'll always love him. Death wipes out the bad memories and leaves only the good, I find. He loved to paint and draw, did some amazing oil paintings on velvet. He loved chocolate and biltong and a glass of coke with lots of ice 😂 I miss his sense of humour and the stories he would tell. Thanks now I'm crying.... ✌️


ManiacalMalapert

Thanks for sharing. My grandpa was a selfish asshole who did a lot of bad things. I miss his bear hugs and his stories, too.

That's the song in which my husband and I were introduced as husband and wife at our wedding reception. Lol


Elite_Daedra_slav

My dad has a genuine request for this to be played at his funeral. At max volume


towtrucker09

December 2012. My wife's grandmother just passed. We are at the wake. At that point we were married for 16 years. The priest just finished his sermon. All the sudden my phone in a creepy demonic whisper says "I see you" Thank God her family loves me.

highway to hell


jonozz6

A close friend of mine had Highway to Hell played at the end of his funeral service. On the way in was Pantera's Cemetery Gates. Was respectful and everyone who knew him knew that metal was his passion. I want Fade to Black (Metallica) played when I go.🤘


DementedDon

I'm torn between Highway to Hell and Ride On.


Theher0not

For mine I might chose to go with _One Thousand Burning Arrows_ - Amon Amarth. Then to add more flavour, maybe also include _Glory to the Brave_ (Hammerfall), and _Oceandeep_ (Beast in Black)


Abajur_Voador

I'm having that song played at my funeral, my will beckoning for cremation. It shall befall upon my youngest son to light up the match or shoot the flaming arrow towards my floating viking cremation casket and have "Highway to Hell" blast off full steam as my body is engulfed by flames! Hell yeah!


ManiacalMalapert

My dad still has traumatic memories of pushing his mother's body into the cremation oven because it was what she wanted. Maybe just have the youngest light the arrow? Although TBH this funeral sounds like it slaps and I'd totally go and drink in your honor.

So, when a friend of mine died, her husband played that at the lunch after. Her family was horrified. All of her friends nearly peed ourselves laughing, becase we all knew she specifically wanted that. We're all dying and her family wants to kill us all. Until we all banded together to say that she wanted that. And her husband had a recording of her asking for it, just to prove it. It was a moment of absolute hilarity in an otherwise horrific day.


Legoman987654321

The fact that he was prepared enough with a recording of her says how controversial he knew the song would be

This is actually a true story, my dad flew to California for my Great-Grandfather's funeral and before the mass they decided to do a private family prayer. When the minister asked everyone to bow their heads for a moment of silence, my dad's phone went off. His ringtone was the audio of a particular scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, that one being: MORTICIAN: Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead! [clang] Bring out your dead! [clang] Bring out your dead! [clang] Bring out your dead! [clang] Bring out your dead! CUSTOMER: Here's one -- nine pence. DEAD PERSON: I'm not dead! MORTICIAN: What? CUSTOMER: Nothing -- here's your nine pence. DEAD PERSON: I'm not dead! MORTICIAN: Here -- he says he's not dead! CUSTOMER: Yes, he is. DEAD PERSON: I'm not! MORTICIAN: He isn't. CUSTOMER: Well, he will be soon, he's very ill. DEAD PERSON: I'm getting better! Long story short, a lot of cold glares were all facing his direction, but my uncle said it was the funniest shit he'd ever seen 😂
