Have you ever noticed the music choices at funerals? They’re fascinating. At Weston Super Mare Crematorium today, you might hear anything from a classic hymn to Frank Sinatra, or even heavy metal. Would you believe someone requested “Another One Bites the Dust” once? It happens. The music tells you everything about the person.
Most people go for “My Way,” “Time to Say Goodbye,” or “Wind Beneath My Wings.” But the wild cards—the ones with the obscure indie tracks or the Queen deep cuts—those are the funerals you’d want to crash. It’s the ultimate playlist. One that only gets one shot.

The Garden of Quiet Goodbyes
Outside the crematorium, there’s a garden. It’s not loud or flashy, just peaceful. People leave notes, flowers, and sometimes weird stuff like a can of beer or a pack of cigarettes. It’s like a tiny, outdoor museum of love.
You can walk around and feel the collective weight of hundreds of goodbyes. It’s cool how a bench or a tree can hold so much memory. Why do we leave things there? Simple: because it feels right. Because it’s a quiet way of saying, “You were here.”
