« on: October 16, 2003, 05:04:01 pm »
i wanna put together a bunch of graduation songs for some of my friends... and i cant think of too many! so anyone have any suggestions of songs that fit the theme of graduation?

heres what i have so far:
Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)- Green Day
Graduation (Friends Forever)- Vitamin C
Here's To The Night- Eve 6
In This Diary- The Ataris

Dropline - Fly Away From Here (Graduation Day) (thanks Kevin, blackvulture!)
Verve Pipe - The Freshman (thanks Kevin, blackvulture!)
We Go Together- Grease (thanks Jamie, Lucy-San)
"Goodbye To You" - Michelle Branch (thanks Tricia, DixieChck615!)
"Leaving Town"- ??? (thanks Dancernl!)
"Bittersweet Symphony"- the Verve (thanks Brian, Gjenkins05!)
"i'm willing to do anything
to calm the storm in my heart
i've never been the praying kind
but lately i've been down upon my knees
not looking for a miracle
just a reason to believe"

ooo... i forgot "In This Diary"- The Ataris!
i know it's more of a end of summer song... but it can also apply to highschool ending cause the main theme of the song is:
"I guess when it comes down to it
Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up
These are the best days of our lives
The only thing that matters is just following your heart
And eventually you'll finally get it right"

ahhhh.... i LOVE this song!  :D

a song called "Leaving Town" but i don't remember who sings it.
It is a crime to kill a neighbor, and an act of heroism to kill an enemy.  But who is an enemy and who is a neighbor is purely a matter of social definition.  - E.R. Leach

They played "Bittersweet Symphony" by the Verve at my Graduation but I am not sure how much that counts  :?
For all you broken hearted lovers lost, go find another one. 'Cause you know time won't wait and you'll be late, white rabbits on the run...
