Oh great music knower people things - I beseech you!

[TDG]

So, I've got just 8 days to put together our end of year leavers video and I currently have no music for the backing?

Oh pray tell, great music gurus, what music would work well in a leavers video?

[Ammer]

End of year leavers = Graduation?

[Zilary]

Lemme see...*browses through music library*
(Just forewarning, I may not have the best music taste)

"My Wish" - Rascal Flatts
"Keep Holding On" - Avril Lavigne
"Bye bye bye" - N*SYNC
"Never Gone" - Backstreet Boys
"Walk On" - U2
"How Far We've Come" - Matchbox Twenty
"Dare You To Move" or "We are One Tonight" or "This is Your Life" - Switchfoot
"The Scientist" - Coldplay
"It Ends Tonight" - All-American Rejects
"Better Days" - Goo Goo Dolls
"Here's to the Night" - Eve 6
"Little Wonders" - Rob Thomas
"Graduation" - Vitamin C

The ones I recommend the most are in green. I hope that helps.

(Sorry, I keep editing)

[Byakuya San]

Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen). Or not, depending on your tastes/needs.

[jellyoflight]

Everybody's Free (to wear sunscreen) - Baz Lurhmann.

Well, it's not actually spoken/sung by him, but it was directed by him...very good song anyway

[Mongrel]

Assuming that Ammer's explanation of what "leavers" means is the correct one, I submit "Pizza Day" by The Aquabats.

[TDG]

End of year leavers = Graduation?

Correct

[Ammer]

In that case,

"Graduation" - Vitamin C (Definately the graduation anthem)

• Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
  Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow?

"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" - Green Day (Classic Grad. song)

• It's something unpredictable
  But in the end is right
  I hope you had the time of your life

"Goodbye" - Spice Girls (A song about leaving out on your own)

• You know it's time to say goodbye
  And don't forget on me you can rely

"Taking Chances" - Celine Dion (Taking chances, setting off on your own)

• But what do you say to taking chances,
  What do you say to jumping off the edge?
  Never knowing if there's solid ground below

"Ever Ever After" - Carrie Underwood (Living a life which you want, a happy, perfect life)

• Each happy ending's a brand new beginning
  Let yourself be enchanted, you just might break through

"Soar" - Christina Aguilera (A chance to make yourself shine)

• Don't be scared to fly alone,
  Find a path that is your own
  What are you waiting for?
  Spread your wings and soar

"Sober" - Kelly Clarkson (A song about coming over so many obstacles to get where you are today)

• I could crash and burn but maybe
  At the end of this road I might catch a glimpse of me
  So I won’t worry about my timing, I want to get it right
  No comparing, second guessing, no not this time

"A Beautiful Life" - Lindsay Lohan (About life being great)

• And this is my beautiful life
  As hard as it gets I know it’s still amazing
  To be alive
  It's a beautiful life

"Fastlane" - Lindsay Lohan (About moving quick in life and adapting to high paced situations)

• So don’t wish upon a star
  Cause a star can only get you so far
  Tomorrow is another day
  You only live once and I’m living for today
  I’m living for today

"Extraordinary" - Mandy Moore (A song about wanting to exceed in life)

• Waking up to wake up some day
  The wind is playing up in the trees
  Kicking up confetti leaves
  Sings as if it’s all to say
  And now I’m ready to be
  Extraordinary

"First Day Of My Life" - Melanie C (About starting out life)

• Talking to myself, too many sleepless nights
  Try to find a meaning to this stupid life
  The first time to really feel alive
  The first time to break the chain

"Unwritten" - Natasha Bedingfield (About making your own life and how you, yourself can make it happen)

• Feel the rain on your skin
  No one else can feel it for you
  Today is where your book begins
  The rest is still unwritten

"Explode" - Nelly Furtado (About showing your traits and "exploding" into life)

• We're counting the stars
  We're counting the stars
  We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
  We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
  We're not very far, we're not very far

"Rockstar" - Nickelback (Comical approach to it)

• I’m gonna trade this life
  For fortune and fame
  I’d even cut my hair
  And change my name

[Twinkle]
