El Opium:
I can't remember what my class's song was but it was so bad it made me go home and listen to several abrasive noise-rock records at high volume.

  Canada, eh?  Whereabout in this great country of ours?

  Anyway, some more specific song suggestions:

Bruce Springsteen - Growin' Up
Bruce Springsteen - Streets of Fire (No clue why it'd work, but it's just a great song)
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water

  And some other randomness

Stars - One More Night (Your Ex-Lover is Dead)
Wolf Parade - I'll Believe in Everything


  Yeah, those'll do for now, I suppose.

I wasn't even allowed at my graduation for various reasons, but I am absolutely certain they played Good Riddance. This is an empirical certainty. There is no possible way they didn't play Good Riddance. The worst part was, most people at my school had OK taste in music, but they chose Good Riddance because that was just the song you played at Graduation.

I am actually pretty glad I wasn't allowed to go, because they didn't register people who skipped out on it without a good reason as having graduated, so I still got a diploma, and I didn't have to sit through that goddamned song, and I didn't have to wind up in hospital or anything.

Personally, if it had been upto me, I would have chosen "A Hard Earned Thirst Needs a Big Cold Beer, But I Drink To Get Pissed" by TISM, because that song pretty much describes Graduation night, and it would look awesome played over shots of kids running out from the school hall, and shots from the chaotic parties that ensued, if we were in a Teen movie or something.

Ahh, TISM, an offensive song for every occaison. "Drugs are Fuckin' Fun" would work, too. The basic message is "screw school, do drugs".

My girlfriend got Kelly Clarkson's "A Moment Like This." I couldn't help but lipsynch and make overly dramatic hand motions while we danced. I made her laugh and it's a fairly memorable moment for me.

Er... I was going to say that you should just pick a really awful song that you can make fun of but I guess grads are a much more serious occasion for some people than others.

I always though "Thirteen" by Big Star would've made a great grad song (or the Elliott Smith cover...).

"Silver Road" by Sarah Harmer would make a really good one.

If you really want to depress the hell out of everyone, "Names" by Cat Power. (Don't actually use this one.)
