Song Ideas?

[us2uk4u]

Somehow I ended up being in-charge of picking out the songs that we will use during graduation, esp when we show slides of our years in nursing school. I have asked ideas from fellow classmates but so far I have received a total of 5 songs.

Any ideas anyone? Pls. don't recommend that Vit C song. We all at least agreed not to play that one.

Pink, Raise Your Glass

Our class had the instrumental version of Freshman by Verve Pipe for the procession. I second Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day.

Um, there's a thread somewhere about "pinning songs".... ok, here's one:

Then this one, most of which is humor, and very sardonic:

And here's one about what some of us like listening to :)

Plenty other ideas out there, just key in "songs for graduation" or for "pinning ceremony" and you'll get lots of ideas!

Now, if you were in South Africa, I'd suggest this:

For the lighting of the lamp, we did "Light Your Candle" by Kathy Troccoli (sp?), which has been sung by Chris Rice. It talks about giving our light to those in need. It does have one stanza which is overtly religious in nature. I still tear up every time I hear it, thinking about my pinning.
