Suggest songs for Graduation ceremony...

My S.O. is about to graduate from nursing school and is on the planning committee for the graduation and pinning ceremony.

Please help by suggesting songs that, in your mind, are appropriate for such an occasion.

Note: "Pomp and Circumstance" is a given :)

Thanks!

I love Frank, but Tony nailed this one.

12. I remember that one...

Edited on Tue Jun-29-04 11:56 AM by southpaw

It was from that brief period of Black Crowes history when Chris looked like the bastard child of Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson... or was it?

Thanks for the congrats! I don't know if "Remedy" will make the playlist for the ceremony, but I do know what my next download at WinMX is gonna be!

Nice to see ya, again, btw... :hug:
