Ceridwen:
Which would explain the phoenix song.  Sort of like Snape 'singing' 
over the injured Draco.  Which would be an echo, which JKR seems to 
enjoy doing.  Can a phoenix heal the dead?  Or a particular dead 
person, such as its owner?

And what about the wrapped body at the funeral?  And the spectacular 
exit?
