Just make sure the church has the appropriate licence. YOu need a

Oh dear! :-)

Playback of the deceased's favourite music at the funeral is pretty
universal nowadays. I'm sure the church has approached this issue.

In my experience many have not. They will almost certainly have
approached the issue of printing out copyrighted words by obtaining the
CCLA (Church Copyright Licencing Authority) but probably don't realise
that a separate licence is concerned for playing prerecorded music. It's
not a big issue but a church will want to make sure they are doing the
honest thing in such circumstances.


Now, do you recommend I wipe my arse front-to-back or the other way?
:-)

I have no recommendation on that topic.
