When my best friends dad died a few years back he played Guns 'N' Roses "Patience" and Don't Cry" at his funeral and every time I hear these songs I smile and could almost cry. These songs will always remind me of him. (He would have wanted "Welcome to the Jungle" cuz thats the kind of guy he was but it may have not been appropriate hahaha :D ) So I was wondering what PJ song would real fans want at their funeral?

I would have to say "Release." One of my favorite songs (doesn't get much love) and I think very appropriate. I think "Nothingman" "I am Mine" "Given to Fly" and "Amongst the Waves" would be good too.
