Songs that shouldn't be played at funerals
Updated | By East Coast Radio
Just like there are songs that should never be played at weddings, there are songs that should never be played at funerals...

Funerals in South Africa are very much like the country's people, 'diverse'.
Some cultures believe in loud mourning ceremonies with religious songs, while other cultures go for more sombre affairs.
Sometimes there are traditions that not everyone will understand, but we guess that is up to the family. The people coming to pay their respects shouldn't have an opinion if they do not understand.

There are those songs that should never feature in a memorial service. Songs like 'Another One Bites the Dust' by Queen or 'Bye Bye Bye' by NSYNC.
