I was a senior in high school in 2006. Now, 2006 probably doesn't seem like a long time ago, but if you think about the music we were listening to five years ago, then I think you'll be quite surprised at some of the songs that were popular that year.
If I made a mixed cd of all the popular songs at my high school when I was a senior.

I think the next playlist I'll do will be from Chad's graduation year. Wouldn't it be fun to hear what was popular in 2001?!
P.S. Want to go back in time to your senior year--feel free to do a post! It would be so fun to see all the different songs that were popular when each of us graduated. If you do a post, let me know in the comments!
