How about "You Make the Best of What's Around" by the Dave Matthews Band -
very hip {;^)>

celia ~ how about "these are the days", by 10,000 maniacs?  the main
sentiment  of the song is that this time of their lives will remain in their
memories as (hopefully) one of the happiest & most carefree.  ~ laurie

----------------------------------

I used to have the same sponsorship i.e. slide show. I used "Last Dance" by
Garth Brooks for several years. You can use old songs if they are standards
that everyone knows. It's country so lots of your kids need to like "kicker"
music as we call it in Texas.

We do a similar program at my high school - we let the kids select the music
(after screening the lyrics, of course).  It gives them "ownership".

How about "Old Days" by Chicago?   Also "Friends" by Elton John.  Or "We
May Never Pass this Way Again."  which I believe is by Todd Rundgren but
I'm not sure.

All three are from "my era" circa 1970-76, I think.

Try "Friends" by Michael W. Smith
------------------------------------
How about:

"These Are the Days," by 10,000 Maniacs
"Forever Young," by Rod Stewart (or newer version by Chrissy Hynde
"Sweet Child of Mine," by Guns 'n Roses
"I'm So Excited," by the Pointer Sisters

I know some of these are from the '80s, but kids seem to be into
that decade right now.
------------------------------------
There are so many - a Dionne Warwick song called "Friends" or "That's what
friends are for" (some of the words are - "for good times, for bad times,
I'll be by yur side forever more, that's what friends are for. . . ", is a
great one - kind of a mix of tear-jerker and friendship; another, if they
are adding pictures of teachers, might be "Wind Beneath My Wings" by Bette
Middler, I think. There was one "We are the World" by Stevie Wonder (?)
maybe.  As you can tell, my thoughts are random, not well organized and
incomplete - let's see, am I really a Librarian??!!
Happy searching - Marylou
------------------------------------
When I was in high school in the mid 80's we did a slide show with lots of
baby pictures and used the song " You've got the cutest little babyface" or
whatever the name is for the song that begins with that phrase.

Have you gotten permission to use these songs or have paid to do so? This is
a copyright issue that you might want to explore.
------------------------------------
In answer to the last question, I checked with a local disc jockey who told me
that as long as we didn't sell copies of the slide show with the music
included we would be fine.
