英国清明节最流行的歌曲-英国“清明节”最流行的歌曲清明时节，四野俱晦。悲风阵阵，愁雨霏霏。鸟雀侧视，草木竦立。举烛烧天，叩脑捶地。既予人生，何置人死？还我至亲，神明不理。痛哉惜哉！歌以悼之。明天即是湿雨一片，祭祖扫墓的清明之节。我们的悲戚恸哭也许并非是死者想见的，在轻松芬芳的氛围里和死者互诉衷肠可能更合他们的心意。那么，我们可以用什么歌曲来悼念逝去之人呢？英国的葬礼歌曲排行榜也许能给我们一些灵感。 Its never easy to say goodbye but when the time comes, more Britons are choosing a pop ditty over a mournful dirge. Contemporary pop songs rather than traditional hymns provide the music for an increasing number of funeral services, the Co-operative Groups Funeral Service said.说再见从来都不是件容易的事，但当这一刻来临之时，更多的英国人现在倾向于选择流行的歌谣而不是哀伤的挽歌。合作集团的丧葬服务公司说，越来越多的葬礼不再使用传统的圣歌作为背景音乐，而代之以当代的流行歌曲。Bette Midlers Wind Beneath My Wings from the 1988 tearjerker Beaches topped the funeral chart in a Co-op poll conducted throughout Britain.

Whitney Houstons I Will Always Love You was number three. Other top 10 selections were Candle in the Wind, sung by Elton John at the funeral of Britains Princess Diana in 1997, and Angels by Robbie Williams.居于排行榜第二位的是轰动一时的电影泰坦尼克号的主题曲席琳狄翁演唱的我心永恒。第三位是惠特尼休斯顿的我将永远爱你。前10名中还有1997年艾尔顿约翰在戴安娜王妃葬礼上演唱的风中之烛以及罗宾威廉姆斯的天使。There were also those who chose to bid a more whimsical farewell. Among the more unusual requests were the Village Peoples YMCA1 and Whams Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, not to mention the Queen classic Another One Bi
