^ haha yeah...
Strange to think about your own funeral, but that song is kinda perfect for that sort of thing.

Interstingly enough, I actually did sing this song at my grandmother's burial. It is such a wonderful beautiful and haunting song, it was perfect for the moment and has changed the way I listen to the song. I've always been touched by this song, but now it's for a different reason... It was perfect and powerful. I'm glad I had the opportunity to give it as a final gift to my grandma. |

For me this song isn't really like a death song but more like a song where someone close to you is leaving (not dying, but you know, going away or something..) I've never thought of it as a funeral song or death song, although if you sang that at a funeral, that would be really nice

That is such a beautiful song. I can play it on piano. I dont cry, but if I really deeply think about what the lyrics are saying, I find myself very emotinal about it. |

I get really annoyed trying to play the sheet music from the official piano books cuz it doesnt sound accurate.. so I just fiddle around with it a bit to make it sound more legit The song itself doesnt make me cry when I sing/hear it..but its so beautiful and I get sad thinking about how the story ends. Then sometimes I just start getting mad thinking about all their deaths Do you guys have any good sheet music (advanced/intermediate) for Into the West on piano though?? |

I love it. But I really do prefer Use Well the Days But I think Into the West works better as the final song for the trilogy. I just love Use Well the Days a tiny bit more |
