This is a graduation classic! It's a sad sappy pop tune that does an accurate job of capturing all the emotions felt during the whole graduation experience. Life changes so much after high school.
Breakaway, by Kelly Clarkson:
This song is about dreams! After finishing high school, people want to go out and make their dreams come true. In order to do this, one has to breakaway! There is no reward without risk!
It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday, Boys II Men:
People spend some of their best years in high school. It is difficult to say goodbye. Those memories will never go away though!
I Wonder, Kanye West:
High school seniors graduate with all of these dreams and aspirations. There is some self doubt there though! They just have to believe in themselves. This is what this song is about.
I Believe I Can Fly, R Kelly:
This corny song from the Space Jam Soundtrack has been covered by every choir across the country. It's for a reason! It's very inspirational! Anyone can be successful if they believe in themselves.
This Use to be My Playground, Madonna:
Say goodbye to ones high school is hard! It's where memories were made. It's where fun was had. This haunting Madonna ballad captures this emotion.
Make it Happen, Mariah Carey: It doesn't matter where you come from, but it matters where you are going. Even if you start with nothing, you can still make something happen! This is one of Mariah's best tracks!
Photograph, Nickelback:
Looking back at all those high school photos can be bittersweet. Photos hold so many memories; both good and bad.
Control, Janet Jackson:
The best line in this song is, "When I was 17, I did what people told me"! This song is about taking control of one's life. After graduation, young people have to take control of their lives!
Lose Yourself, Eminem:
Sometimes people only have one shot, so they should take advantage of all their opportunities.
