Sarah Mclaughlins song 'I will remember you'was played at my Graduation three years ago, I find it hard to believe that the current Rap or hip hop music is playable as a Graduation or a wedding for that matter, anyone agree with me? |

I agree 1000%, Rap music with its mostly obsence lyrics are not appropiate for any social setting period!! |

Theses are all great graduation songs, my favorite is 'My life' by the Beatles. It really sums up the mixed emotions of Grad. time, a new future but leaving some friends behind who you may never see again, a very emotional time in my life |

I would say the carpenters song ' Only just begun' is the most heard song at Graduation ceremonies, as well as Journey, Beatles and REO speedwagin in that order |

It's odd that almost all the songs still played at graduations and weddings are the classics, just shows how well they hold up, and how forgettable todays music is. |

I'm familar with " Somewhere in my heart" and your right, it's a really sentimental but beautiful song, and the big band arrangment is top notch, I also recommend it highly for graduation or weddings. |

I went to the graduation of this girl I was seeing at the time. It was in a small town. Their theme was "boats against the current," and their theme song was Styx "Come Sail Away." It was very well thought out. |
