Here Are The 10 Most Popular Songs People Choose For Their Own Funerals

A study has just revealed the top 10 songs that people choose to be played at their funerals, and there are less religious tunes than you’d expect.

Conducted by Co-op Funeralcare, the research revealed that only three of the top 10 songs were hymns, the rest being pop songs.

The study, which surveyed 2,000 people across the UK, also found that the Game Of Thrones theme tune is gaining in popularity at funerals and that 42% of adults hope to raise a laugh among the guests at their funeral.

Here are the top 10 most popular songs.
