hello.

i tried to ask a question about a very old graduation song. I have the chinese version. i posted a link to that MP3, however, i think that it was deleted.

does anyone know anything about old graduation songs? very old, probably in the 1960's or earlier.

i have heard a clip of the english version once. so I am just wondering if anyone knows? ask me, and i will give you the link to the mp3.

Whew- Thanks, Rog. I was singing that tune, but for the life of me, could not remember the name of it! Embarrassed

It was written by Edward Elgar, who wrote a bunch of P&C marches. I have been checking on Amazon, but I can't seem to find the right one.

Although... this 1960's thing has me concerned. Pomp and Circumstance is more like 1860s.

Does this graduation song have words?

Youngman, Are you talking about the Beach Boys song Graduation Day? I tried to answer that for you on Abuzz, but I couldn't do the tune because I did not have the proper program.
