I saw a commercial for the movie today, I really want to check it out. Amazing Grace is one of two songs that have been on my ipod since I bought it, the other is Scotland the Brave.
I will always remember hearing it played at my grandmother's funeral, and the effect it had on us all, I was doing my best to get through the service then I lost it at the first few bars of Amazing Grace.

I've already recorded the CD soundtrack for my funeral and gave it to my wife. At the beginning of mass they are to play a traditional pipe version of Amazing Grace, then at Communion they will play a version of Amazing Grace by a group called Five Blind Boys From Alabama and then at exit it will be a much more rocking version done by The Dropkick Murphy's. It all builds up but they are all favorites of mine.

At my "funeral," I want it to kick off with "Parting Glass," followed by "Isn't It Grand Boys, To Be Bloody Well Dead." After that, upbeat happy stuff, because I want it to be an after party for my life, not a mourning that it's over.
