What was your class song? Did it get your vote?

I graduated my high school in 1988 and we were stuck with "Don't You Forget About Me" by Simple Minds. Personally, I would've picked Judas Priest's "You've Got Another Thing Comin'. The lyrics were perfect, but I couldn't even get it on the ballot.

Oasis... Umm.... "Don't Walk Away" or was it Don't Go Away? Or umm... Don't look back in anger? Something like that... They did this whole weird montage thing with all the popular kids and such. Needless to say I was not in it

I don't remember ever having a vote to tell the truth..

We had songs that followed us throughout the years of High School, but never picked just one (that I can recall). Styx - "Show Me The Way" and Skid Row - "I Remember You" were the two songs played by a lot of us towards graduation.

1987, and we had two songs: "Lean On Me" and "Stand By Me". I have no recollection of how they were picked, but it is a nice combination of sentiments.

The song on my class mug was The Beatles, The Long and Winding Road, our prom theme was The Moody Blues Nights in White Satin...

You'd never guess I graduated in '82.

I graduated in 1989 from a highschool in small town Saskatchewan (that's in the middle of Canada for those of you wanting to look it up), and I think our song was "Guns n' Roses - Patience."

There were a lot of mullets in my school.

I think we had this for my high school too, at least it's the song I remember being played during the senior video. Still a great song.

That Vitamin C song- whatever it was, and no I didn't even know we had the opt to vote, even if I paid attention or cared anyway.

I wish Time Of Your Life/Greenday was available back then........(oh, I feel old)

ShaniFaye · 10-12-2004, 05:05 PM

1986 and I dont honestly recall that our class had a song.....which wouldnt surprise me since the heads of our class are the ones that planned out 10 year reunion and charged 100 bucks just to be able to stand in a party room at a hotel....didnt include food or anything
