Happy Labor Day everyone! Well, maybe I shouldn't say "happy"; for most kids, Labor Day isn't a very happy holiday at all. It means it's time for school, and, even if it also means there'll be a nice barbecue at Uncle Chester's this evening, that feeling makes most kids feel uneasy at best, terrified at worst. But to make the transition from the carefree-ness of summer to the care-ness of fall, I've selected some of my favorite school-related songs. These twenty-four all have something to do with the school experience (learning, studying, teaching, etc.)--even if some only really relate to school because of their name. Regardless, these are my favorite school songs, and listening to them will hopefully get you in the mood to hit those books again:
24. Red Hot Chili Peppers--Catholic School Girls Rule
