Aloha it's Friday. It's Finally here. School is winding down , Kids are getting Summertime Minds, sleeping late, getting lazier than usual. Senior are Graduating, Junior think the are Seniors right now, Sophomores are Mad cause Seniors are out and Juniors are acting crazy and the Freshman are just confused and glad to be getting out! Whew what a whirlwind.
Went to a graduation Party last evening. Thanks for all your input for gifts last Aloha Friday. What I decided on was given to me from Jen E from Momma blogs a Lot her blog name is "Typing one handed since 2006".
So I gave a gift of a collapsible laundry basket with the new 3-in-1 soap, a tide stain pen, Frebreze travel spray bottle, and a Personalized magnet tin with 10.00 quarters. He's off the College in about 4 weeks. Football season starts early so off to Pennsylvania John (aka Johnny) goes.
As I sit here typing and listening to the radio , A question comes to mind for you.
What was the popular song of your Graduation year?The one that bring back memories of your last day of High School every time you hear it.
You can go to An Island Lifeto link up for Aloha Friday.
Yikes, that is a tough question. I can't not seem to remember what the song was. It was 15 years ago and seems like forever. I know there was a Vanessa Williams song that was played at graduation (I think), but not sure what it was called.
ReplyDeleteThat entire breakthrough Boston album does it for me.

It's really hard for me to remember what song it was then. It was definitely some reggae or dancehall song. Probably something from Beenie Man. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was over 50 years ago, and the song was Moments to Remember.
ReplyDeletelol, i can not remember~!
ReplyDeleteA Horse with No Name by America
ReplyDeleteI love that song, but it doesn't remind me of graduation or prom.
Is it bad that I have no idea either
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. Is it bad that I have no clue? I don't remember. I did like the song with the lyrincs, "You've got a right to fight to party." Can't recall who its by, though.
ReplyDeleteOMG, I don't remembered!!!
ReplyDeleteThe song I think of is "Free Bird" because my class picked that as our class song even though that came out about 13 years before I even graduated.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember a song that was popular back then!!

Hmmm... I don't remember exactly, but I can tell you I saw Might Might Bostones, Barenaked Ladies, Matchbox 20 and Everclear in concert that year.
ReplyDeleteThe song that reminds me of my last day of hugh school is Alice Cooper's School's Out
ReplyDeleteCrap...You are making me think back 35 years LOL It was all disco then in that era and I'm going to say September by Earth Wind and Fire. And if you want to see something funny I just googled it and here's the link to the top 10 songs for 1975 CLICK HERE. I loved them all :) Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm actually a freshman in high school right now... But in my final year of middle school (8th grade here), EVERYBODY was obsessed with Don't Stop Believing by Journey!
ReplyDeleteSeriously? I can hardly remember which kid is named what and I've got to recall my Senior Year?? It was 1981 and I'm sure it was something really lame.
ReplyDeleteLook at Chuck remembering. Ugh. He's making me look bad. Darn, Chuck!
Hm. That's a good question! I can't remember that far back (even though it was only 2 years ago).
ReplyDeleteThis is going to bug me know...LOL
