A tuneful cheerio

From the Frank Sinatra classic My Way to the Match of the Day theme tune, it seems more and more people are choosing a musical accompaniment for their final farewell.

According to a new survey, a huge array of tunes are – quite literally – playing people out.

It won’t be everybody’s cup of tea but, from humorous ditties to more serious classics, it at least represents another way to remind loved ones of your personality.
