GTKY Prom Theme Song

sleepy33 · October 2018

I'm bored and it's waaaaay too quiet around here. What was your prom theme song or similar from your high school days?

Mine was Party Like It's 1999 (because it was)

missy052819 · October 2018

I don't even think we had a prom theme song. But whenever I hear "Hot in Here" by Nelly, I think of Senior Week 2002 at the beach. Ah memories!

keighty80 · October 2018

Oh man...I think ours was Thnks fr th Mmrs by Fall Out Boy (2007 shout out!) Still love that song....lol

RoseShadow873 · October 2018

I never went to a prom so I have no idea.

That sounds like a good time!

megstevens92 · October 2018

Don't Stop Believing by Journey...but the Glee version haha. 2010.

Send me on my way by Rusted Root. It was more a graduation theme, no effing clue if we even had a prom theme.

Definitely saw Rusted Root in concert and had the t shirt to prove it. I wonder where that shirt went...

mariposa_767s · October 2018

I don't remember haha. But I remember our senior theme song was "Roll Out" by Ludacris...cuz we was rollin out

missy052819 · October 2018

@mariposa_767s I like to play roll out on my phone when my SO & I are leaving the house. He's not amused haha.

I never even heard of Rusted Root. Going to look this up...

mrsdee15 · October 2018

Oh man, I don't know - I graduated high school in 2003, I don't think we had a theme song. But, the big songs when I started college that fall (GO GAUCHOS) were Hey Ya by Outkast and Yeah by Usher, they always remind me of that time.

It was such a good time!

fatmonica · October 2018

I think our prom theme was Hanging by a Moment by Lifehouse. 2002.

peachy13 · October 2018

@mrsdee15 I would also say Yeah by Usher for being a popular song that year (class of '04)

However, I am pretty proud to admit that my class was kind of an enigma in that we all bonded over classic rock. Like, 70s classic rock (Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Tom Petty, Steve Miller Band, Skynyrd, etc.). Obsessed. Our whole prom playlist was this stuff.

k2k2tog · October 2018

Do you guys remember the Graduation Song by Vitamin C? It def

Also, Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy because I grew up in the sticks.

missy052819 · October 2018

@k2k2tog I sometimes wish I grew up in the sticks instead of the city. We moved to the sticks once, but didn't last long, back to the city.

MelissaMay82 · October 2018

I'm pretty sure our prom theme was Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd (Class of 2000).

bumbly_b · October 2018

Idk about a song but our prom theme was under the sea. (2009)

GeorgiaGirl1230 · October 2018

@mrsdee15, oh my gosh, both of those were HUGELY popular for my class too (2004)! Those bring back so many memories. Our student council made the class of 2004 a mixed CD and we actually ended up having several 90s country songs and such on there (Fishin' in the Dark, Check Yes or No); we are in GA afterall lol. But both Hey Ya and Yeah are on it. Oh my gosh, I really want to find that now.

ibanezstarburst · October 2018

Ours was My Wish by Rascal Flatts. It was way overplayed at the time but I like that it's a bit cheesy now.

ashleaf2018 · October 2018

Ours was Ignition (Remix) by R. Kelly. Not my fave (song or person for obvious reasons) but everybody else loved it. 2014.

thebobloblaw · October 2018

I don’t think we had a theme song. I really just came here to say that I keep reading the title of this thread as porn theme song... 😂.

poshspice · October 2018

I was on student council senior year (2005) and I don’t even remember. I don’t think we had a prom theme song, though. TBH high school was not my favorite time of my life. I’d much rather reminisce about college. My BFF and I used to belt out The Reason by Hoobastank when we were driving in the car senior year, though!

eatinwatermelonseeds · October 2018

@poshspice yes. I would NEVER refer to high school as the best years of my life. And a few years after were pretty rocky too. I believe I'm in the best years of my life. I've always wanted to be a wife and have kids, and now I'm going to be in a career I love. I wish I'd gotten here sooner (career wise) but it's here. High school sucked, this is why I stuck it out.

zuuls_mom · October 2018

Get Low by Lil Jon and the East Side Boyz 😆

bpietronicco · October 2018

I totally cannot remember our theme for prom- it was probably something like oh what a night- 1997. I will have to see if I can pull out an old yearbook or something. Our senior song was Green Day’s good riddance.

brie_and_almonds · October 2018

@poshspice @eatinwatermelonseeds
I 100% agree that high school was nowhere near the best years of my life... or even enjoyable most of the time. I was depressed for no reason and so uncomfortable in my own skin, and for half of it I was in a bad first-relationship where we sucked at communicating with each other and my friends mostly hated him... and then after years we just stopped talking at the end. Didn't really formally "break up" until a couple of months later when I wanted to date someone else.

Not even close to the best years of my life. I often tell my students that high school sucks pretty badly, but life gets better. I am much happier now than I ever was in high school.

As for prom... I didn't go to either of my proms (even though I was in above bad relationship for the first one) ... I think one of the themes was Night At the Roxbury though. No idea about songs.

mrskoz428 · October 2018

We didn’t really have a theme song but my junior year of high school, our theme was Hollywood red carpet. Senior year it was a night in Paris.

psychobutthead · October 2018

I never made it to prom or senior year. But nothing screams i think it was 2009 more to me then MCR black parade.

GeorgiaGirl1230 · October 2018

@ibanezstarburst I agree that it was very overplayed at the time, but man, that song makes me cry every single time I hear it, even now. I think it make the perfect Father Daughter dance song. I wish there was a Mother Daughter dance at a wedding, bc that would be my song to my DD.

@poshspice Oh man, Hoobastank floods my HS memories too. It was my HS boyfriend's favorite band. We were so in love (lol) and I listened to them all the time.

jwalters2019 · October 2018

OMG Usher always reminds me of prom night(2010)

ElleJDubs · October 2018

This is the Time by Billy Joel (2003). My friend suggested it and we voted on a few. I think the close second was Good Riddance by Green Day.

lovelybabybumpz · October 2018

1999/2000
Our theme was secret garden, so I think it was the same song, by Bruce Springsteen. Which is funny because the song was from 1995.
Our graduation songs were Vitamin C and Pearl Jam (Elderly Woman behind the Counter in a small town).
