I love this meme ... and love that the Isle of Man is on the "edge of the world"!

But my favourite is watching you step along the Glory Road!

I'm sure you could do it from James' music.

As for Stepping Down the Glory Road - I think of it as my theme tune! I am leaving instructions that it is to be played as my coffin leaves church at the end of my funeral - and everyone is to follow it joyously.

Neat, you must admit, that they have a track with the right name!

Very neat :-) I love the idea of Stepping Down the Glory Road too!

(The "which music would you have played at your funeral" meme is always an interesting one, too. In truth I hope to have have Vaughan Williams' Lark Ascending, but am occasionally prompted by the little devil on my shoulder to opt for, were I to be cremated, Bowie's Ashes to Ashes...

Thank you - It seems as good a way to look on life as any...

Actually I almost called 'The Valinor Trail' that - but I had used so much Runrig in 'Dust' that I thought perhaps not.

Talking about 'Dust' and funeral songs - I think I would actually like my coffin brought in to Dust (http://youtu.be/H2Z21pPRe1E) -which is actually about death, and very suitable. (Even more so for a cremation...!) I want the whole thing playing, though - no ten bars and cut to the minister!

I want 'One More Step Along the World I Go' as a hymn, and then I'm going out to 'Glory Road'. I'd really rather like to be there to sing along!

The name bit amused me!

I think it was you who got me listening to runrig; I really should thank you! I've enjoyed them!

Seems a reasonable thing to change my name to... :)

Runrig have brought me happiness ever since my honeymoon. Hmm - that sounds odd - S2C and I first heard their music when we were in Edinburgh on out honeymoon and both loved it immediately!

I would like Into the West played at my funeral, I am not sure what sort of service I would have as I am a bit ambivalant about religion, too many wars fought over how you pray. To each his own.

That would be very suitable too - and really rather beautiful.
