It's definitely different--more of a spoken rhythmic poem--but I loved the
'Sunscreen Song' directed by Baz Luhrmann.
Some of it follows below:
"Wear sunscreen.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Sing.
Floss.
Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't...."

Green Day didn’t make Good Riddance to be a graduation song or a song for any other occasion. Try that song “I will remember” by Sarah something.

I grad in 2002 and our song was Joe Cocker's "A little help from my friends." It was a great song for the class I graduated with, but it might not work for everyone.

You might want to try Closing Time by Semisonic. It was the high school graduation song of one of my friends.

Well, if you can refrain from throwing up, "We've Only Just Begun" by the Carpenters. My 8th grade class had to sing that in Catholic school... good lord!
That's not much of an endorsement, is it?
