What was your HS graduation class song?

Ok_Ad8249@reddit

No idea if we had one.

For some reason our ceremonies included a song from the band and another from the choir. My senior year the jazz ensemble performed too. I wasn't thrilled I had to play twice, I just wanted to get my diploma and leave. No clue what songs we played.

I did hear Ride The Lightning for the first time that night with some friends, so for me I guess that whole album was the graduation song.

Aggressive_Farmer399@reddit

This was mine as well...also '90. But because we always had a graduate sing the class song during the graduation ceremony and some dude in our class was convinced he had the best voice in our school and told the chorus teacher he couldn't hit the high notes, so the chorus teacher convinced the principal to do a new vote...the small town idiots I graduated with picked Dust in the Wind by Kansas and I'm still fucking pissed off about it 36 fucking years later.

[-]

IamGypsyStarr@reddit

Damn. That’s a whole different vibe. I used to sing Dust in the Wind to my son Dustin. A lot of us voted for Runnin’ With the Devil but I think Admin shut it down. I think about that a lot too.
