What is your "Victory" song? You know, the one that should play at 120 decibles from hidden speakers everytime you accomplish something great? Mine is "Rollercoaster (Of Love)", the version from the "Beavis and Butthead Do America" soundtrack.
Also, what song do you want played at your Funeral? Mine is "Come Sail Away" by Styx!

Don't have a Victory song, really... too many to chose from right now.
Funeral Song, however, is simple. "Amazing Grace". Hopefully on bagpipes, but it could be sung as well.

Victory Song: "Can't Touch This", MC Hammer. Just because.
EDIT: I would like to add "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot, for the after sex victory song.
Funeral Song: I don't plan that far down the road...I'm only 15! I'm too young, beautiful, sexy, etc. to die!

Victory Song: Finale from Beethoven's Symphony No. 5. Or the choral finale from his Symphony No. 9 (Ode to Joy)
Funeral Song: The Marcia funebre 2nd Movement from Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 "Eroica". It's simply the best piece of classical music in existence.

I think I'd probably co-compose both with my friends from music school.

Victory: "Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against the Machine. Not because it's especially uplifting, but because it's my favorite song ever.
Funeral: "The Ghost of Tom Joad" by the Boss. It speaks of a final end, but hope remaining. Plus the harmonica makes me sad as hell.
Of course, I plan to live forever, so I shouldn't need the second one.

My victory Song is You Can't Stop Me by the Guano Apes
Funeral Song is like Lady T's Amazing Grace done via proper scottish Bagpipes or An American Trilogy by Elvis.

Victory: Something by Queen
Funeral: Not having a funeral, I'm having a WAKE! (so something lively, perferably Irish Folk, or U2, or Clannaed)

Concurred, but definitely bagpipes for me.
My Victory Song would be AC/DC's "For Those About To Rock".

There's no way I could pick one for victory, I've choices for every single sort of victory.
As for funeral though...it'd have to come down to a short list.
Blind Guardian - The Bards Song, In the Forest
Apocalyptica - Unforgiven
Lone Piper - Flower of Scotland

Victory song: "The Touch" by Stan Bush. Nothing beats the feeling you get when this starts playing in Transformers: The Movie after Prime says, "Megatron must be stopped...no matter the cost" and then proceeds to single-handedly beat the shit out of the Decepticon attack force.
Funeral song: "The Parting Glass" as performed for Waking Ned Devine, arranged by Shaun Davey.

Funeral Song: The Cowboy Junkies version of "To Lay Me Down" (a Grateful Dead song).
Performed live for the first time ever 3 days ago at a concert in Toronto, I was there.

Victory:
Some odd medley of 'We are the Champions', 'I Stand Alone', and 'Let the Bodies Hit the Floor'.
The inclusion of the last one sounds a bit..demonic, eh?

Dropkick Murphy has a kickass version of Amazing Grace on bagpipes and distortion guitar.
