Answer 2

My sister actually used this song when she graduated from the 8th grade

"My Friend" - by Plus One
Written by phil sillas, stephanie lewis

We are standing at the crossroads
And now it’s time
For you to go your way
And me to go mine
I will pray the lord
Will keep you safe
Until the day I see your face again

Chorus
My friend
We have been through so much
And you have been my godsend
With your sure and steady love
My friend
You know I will be there
If you ever need
’cause you’ve always
Been a friend to me

I may travel the world over
But one thing I know for sure
One day this road will lead me
Back ’round to your door
I will pray the lord
Will keep you safe
Some bonds are just too strong
To break in the end

Chorus

Nothing will change the way
I feel about you
Not the miles or the years
Or the place this life takes me to

Chorus

VITAMIN C LYRICS

"Graduation (Friends Forever)"

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We would get so excited and we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

[1] - As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

[Repeat 1]

La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

[Repeat 1 (3x)]

Answer 4

I'm in the same situation. The classic song "Graduation" by Vitamin C is good. That's what we're playing at our graduation.

Answer 5

Vitamin C

Answer 6

The time of your life by Green Day. it's awesome.

"Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to do.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
I hope you had the time of your life.

I hope you had the time of your life. "

Answer 10

I think it is called "Graduation" aka "Friends Forever" from Vitamin C.

Answer 11

Try Georg Handel's Xerxes. There is an aria 'Umberto' something which sounds very processional. I think I've heard it as a hymn. Either way, if you have a pipe organ it should do very well.
