Funeral Music?

Now, there is nothing on earth worse than losing your loved ones. I believe this is true for most places, with the exception of a couple of culture whereby it is celebrated.

While every single culture have their own funeral procession, some long while some short, there is one that never fails to amaze me. How about some music, that shot them to fame?

Yups, we are talking non other than Ghana Pallbearers, and their iconic Astronomia dance.

I have no freaking clue if this is common, but I find myself watching them dance while carrying a casket.

I don't think many can relate, nor even to understand. But hey, they are really quite good with what they do. It ain't easy dancing, much less dancing while wearing blazer under the hot sun. They really do have swag I give them that. Just that during a funeral? Hmmm....

Since then, there are quite a couple of variations to their dance, and memes are even created!

There are even this, whereby if the Coffin Dance is in other countries what it would sound like. This is quite amusing to me though. I died at the first one, the Korean. Famous for their dramas, it is quite appropriate for them to have the romantic theme!

Question of the day

What do you think about the Ghana Pallbearers?
