Seems like there was a similar thread here before....at any rate I always liked this one about death/dying.

In the early '90s I recorded a daft cover of "My Way", so that would be my choice.

A lot of great KC mentions to mull over ... my first thought was

Too Many Humans - Buckethead
No Civilization here. Tried it on but it would not fit.
Seems only a thin veneer. A little rubbing and it comes off quick.

The Adagio movement to Bruckner's 9th Symphony! There is no other way for me.

Sounds amazing, it would be my only chance for a record deal.

My first thought was Arthur Brown’s “Fire” because I’d like to have a sense of humour even in death.

“Fire, I'll take you to burn.
Fire, I'd take you to [urn]
Oh no, oh no, oh no, you're gonna burn!”

That song would work better if I was being burnt onto a CD-R.

Maybe I’d chose Ennio Morricone’s L’arena or Beethoven’s 7th, second movement, which may be me all-time favourite piece of music, and not just because it was used in Zardoz. Changed my mind -- Nick Drake's "River Man" to guide me down the Styx or as a song for Vinylhalla.

My ashes would probably need to be made into a triple album. So yessongs or Allman Brothers Filmore East.

Very cool....he was covered by some other artists as well, The Bevis Frond, Damon & Naomi, Ghost....I have a CD of songs by some of these and others that are all Tom Rapp songs, "For The Dead In Space,"  released in 1997.

I remember the original, by Rapp with Pearls Before Swine.  He wrote some incredibly great songs...not every one was, but quite a few.  He famously wrote a song called "(Oh Dear) Miss Morse," n One Nation Underground that spelled out an expletive in Morse code that was banned from the radio for a time.  But most of his songs were hauntingly beautiful and very psychedelic.  

Interesting that This Mortal Coil's title is "Filigree and Shadow," although it doesn't seem to be related, the band Fever Tree had a song of the same name.  And, I just found out, also released a compilation of the same name in 2002, although the original was on their eponymous LP, released in 1968.

Love this song, but never heard the original before!  The '86 version from This Mortal Coil was the one I knew:

You do know there's a company that does that, right?  It's called, "Andvinyly."

Actually, I thought it would be hilarious if he had his own ashes pressed into an LP of that entire one.  "The Use of Ashes," is the title.  Sadly, he died almost a year ago and I don't think he did do that, but he did have a great sense of humour as well as, as he put it, "constructive melancholy."  The goddfather of psych-folk, imho

Traditional Gregorian chant.

But if I had to pick popular music, then either the Dead's "Attics of my Life" or Glenn Miller's "Moonlight Serenade."  Better yet, both.

Well....I told my wife I would like I Talk To The Wind by KC played at my funeral.
Beautiful track with a very wistful yet somehow comforting  lyric.
