Funeral Service
Funeral ships in Singapore are a very popular choice for the world-wide-discerning crowd. You may be wondering why this is so, especially since we do not yet have a floating cruise industry here in Singapore. It can simply be seen as such: Singapore’s memorialship, The Mothership, is unique and unlike any other ship service in the region. This is because the entire ceremony takes place in the water. This may be surprising to some, but it makes sense once you look at the operational principle of the Mothership itself.
The Mothership (the name of which is taken from ainese traditional boat legend) has been docked at Singapore for more than 40 years now. The vessel has always been out of service and during that time, the vessel has witnessed the arrival or departure of countless numbers of dignitaries and private citizens. During these years, thousands of people lay wreaths on the deck or bow as the vessel slowly glided through the water. It is said that after every full service, a funeral Singapore procession would pass by the boat and since all of these people came to pay their last respects, they all sang funeral songs. These songs are held in high regard since they are considered a historical treasure and a part of the ceremony.
Even today, the service aboard ship is a stunning spectacle – particularly when the funeral cortege passes by. While you are onboard, you can even have personalized services with a variety of music and acoustic performances to suit any occasion. Here are a few of the popular funeral songs that are played onboard the Mothership every time a guest attends a funeral service:
Powerful Songs To Play At A Funeral Service
A standard piece from the collection of Beethoven’s Piano Sonatas, this love song is extremely moving and shows just how special your loved one really was during his life. It has a slow tempo and is intended to be played as a whole instead of simply picked apart and sung. The words are beautifully rendered and the melody is upbeat but gentle at the same time. Funerals are often very emotional experiences and this song is intended to help everyone gather and let loose as they do so. If you are planning a ceremony onboard, consider playing this funeral song while everyone is in the dining room for lunch.
A more upbeat number, this song is appropriate for a fun-filled Funeral Service. It tells a story about a person dying of old age and talks about how he once had a beautiful singing voice. It ends with a beautiful rendition of Forever Loves Minus One. If you are having a patriotic funeral, then you can opt for the patriotic American version of this song.
If your loved one is passionate about his/her country, you might want to play this song. The words ” Forever Loves Minus One” are dedicated to those who served and sacrificed for the United States of America and since the lyrics commemorate those sacrifices, it is a fitting tribute to those who served. You can choose from any of the funeral songs that have been pre-planned and you can also request that a special music piece be played during the funeral. Make sure to listen to it before you perform it during the service.
