wonderwall from oasis >.<

We havn't decided yet, but there was some talk of it being 'five years time' ?
and there was mention of a few glee songs too!

Stryderman

Not 100% sure yet but It's looking like its going to be
The Killers - All These Things That I've Done:)

DancingQueen:)

Mine's going to be The Climb, not many people want it though. I'd prefer if it wasn't sung by Miley Cyrus and Joe but not much I can do about that! Can't believe this time next month i'll be finished!

Curlyhatescurls

I thought our graduation song was awful, and it is(I can't even remember the name, its something stupid and cheesy) but thank GOD it's not a glee song, I don't think I could go to the graduation.....shudder.

I wanted 'Blackbird' by the Beatles:( instead the rest of the year chose a ****e song that I'll probably end up singing cause I'm in the choir.:mad:

H2student

"True Colours" and "Forever Young" I think.

Mine is about mountains and over coming things, fits pretty well with the song The Climb. Not det in stone yet though.

Cook!eMonster

Reckoner91

We have about 5, but the one I chose is Blur - To The End

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0YvOncfBJU

Got the inspiration from the last episode of Misfits

Edit: Oh, and our theme is 'Stars' and reaching up to space or something like that. I wasn't really listening.

Ours was meant to be "Friends Forever" (Vitamin C), but we decided a day before the grad mass to change it, so as well as that (the teachers made us keep it), we had "The Worlds Greatest" (R Kelly).

christina_x

we had Oasis-whatever (listen the lyrics)

Oasis - Masterplan

and..
in five years time - Noah and the whale

we got everybody to bring in Photos they liked (but it could only include people from our year) and then we got photos of school tours and trips ect from the teachers and made a slideshow with these songs in the background. We had a meal afterwards where we had the slideshow projected on the wall and everybody got a copy of the slideshow


meh.. cant get them stupid youtube links to work... but do youtube them

cork*girl

Dont Stop Believing.. its our theme aswell!

We have loads of songs being played at our graduation..

Graduation Song, Time of Your Life, Butterfly Fly Away, Lean on Me, Stand By Me, Wonderwall..

We are doing a big slide show with loads of pics from the last 6 years

Songs to the background are:
Time of your life - Green Day
Don't Stop Believing - JOURNEY (NOT GLEE)
and Hey There Delilah - Plain White T's (it was our TY song, we all sang it on bus journeys and stuff. We sang it the whole way on the train to Galway from Kildare once)

I'm doing the slide show so I also plan to add in The Leaving Cert Song - Jim Jim Nugent (look it up)

Jus looking back at the photos, we have all changed so much in so many ways over the last 6 years, and while I can wait to go to college and stuff, I'm really gonna miss the place:(

My wish by rascal something or other.. it's simply awful!

we do this is my school too, but as well as all the pictures we have a slide show of every single person in the year, a photo from when we came into the school, then a video straight after of us getting our sixth year photos taken. I know what u mean about changing, we've all changed so much, but we're all still as tight as ever, thats one thing thats always been said about our year group, even though there are over 200 of us, we look out for eachother.

DancingQueen:)

I think it happens in mine aswel. On graduation day we all gather in the hall and look at pictures and videos from throughout the years. I'm pretty sure the whole hall will be in floods!
On topic the climb was chosen as my graduation song today..

cailin_donn

The date for our grad mass was chosen for us, we had no say, and when the whole year (c.70 ppl) approached the principal to change it he wouldnt even listen to us.

Anyone else have that kind of problem?

aine92

We have a vote in our song and I really like the Idea of Take That, Never Forget but I think some other ones I've seen here are deadly!

Kersmash

Graduation song? Never heard of one of those. Sounds a bit strange to me!

My religion teacher is organising it all and told us when the mass was, then changed it after my parents had taken the day off. Not much I could do about it tbh. No-one had a say in the date but I don't think anyone really minded. Maybe you could ask one of your teachers to have a word with the principal, explain the reasons why you want to change it. That could help.

*giggles*

Thankfully we were allowed to change our graduation song to anything we liked rather than Lean On Me. I suggested we do Hey Jude but to no avail:(

Surely you heard of this one :

I hate Vitamin C - The Graduation Song, it's so cliché and it's also awful to listen to. It would make a terrible Graduation Song

If our principal had even tried to get us to go to a mass there would have been a revolt. Is the mass compulsory?

Crow92

Most possibly, sure most people in your year will be catholic or christian..or say they are.

Don't kick a fuss about it, if your not religious just go, sit through it and don't take the communion.

We're having a serious mass thingy in a church, and then going back to the school to get "class rings"...

DancingQueen:)

Class rings sound brillant! In my school we go to the Assembly hall, look at pics, people give speeches etc. Next parents, teachers and students go to mass and after that back up to the school for food. Then everyone goes home, gets changed and to the local to have a bit of fun with the teachers and then out for the night Should be pretty good.

blah161

we are doing "we're alright" by supergrass. Its cliche and crap. We all wanted to do "faith" by george michael but the teachers wouldnt let us on account of the first lines "oh i guess it would be nice, if i could touch your body, i know not everybody has got a body like you..."

that's a bit stupid. When we were in TY, one of the scenes in our show was 3 girls giving 3 lads a lap dance (wasnt just random, it fitted into the storyline). Now that, I could understand being banned for being inappropriate, but banning Faith is just stupid.

Pretty much the same in our school. The only thing I'm worried is saying soemthing I'll live to regret to a teacher .

MrPirate

A handful of us (all the musicians who would be willing to play it) were the ones to decide. We had a Woody Guthrie song, a Dolly Parton song (sadly, it was also a guy who picked this), some other random song, and because of much pressure from me:

Not much can top Freebird as a grad song!
