The only songs with an order are those of the High-Holy Canon. They are played in the order written above, at the end of every dance. (Other than the period of 2000-2003, Forever Young is only played at the last dance).
Forever Young,
- AB (SomnusLupus)
Jump Jive and Wail was in there for a while, although they did not play it as a result of serious reorganization (i.e., mauling) of canon in 2005.
- yoda (AKA man in the princess dress).
At the third dance at carlisle 2005 session 2 one of the students had an asthma/panic attack, cutting it short. the student recoverd at the hospital that night, and Stairway to Heaven and American Pie were played at the end of the talent show, with everyone comeing down and danceing on stage.
at the second dance, there was a serious dirth of canon played in the first hour and a half, so 5 or 6 students, including myself, moved to the area infront of the stage, and started doing the time warp to 'take me out' in protest. as a result, the next song played was the time warp by Mike G. and RA Pete (both my RAs (mike 2nd and pete 1st) for for camp that summer)
-Schuyler(tall kid with funny tshirts, a.k.a. crunk, andre the giant, and sky)
Trust me: I was there. And BTW, they've been playing Zoot Suit Riot because Chris White wants to give his students sommat to swing to. -Josh (Schuyler's roomie, friend, and comrade)
Sandstorm is played at least once or twice a session, just an FYI. I'dd add Hash Pipe but I'm not sure if it's Canon yet or not- same with Gay Bar. - Caelum (Session 2- '03-'06)
Also, they played Dragostea Din Tei (Numa Numa song) at least once each dance....and sometimes twice. It may just have had to do with the popularity of the song last summer, but who knows? Maybe it'll become canon. -Rachel (2 .05)
They really mauled the canon this year in session 1. They took out all of the sexually suggestive songs, and also prohibited sexually suggestive dancing. I guess the twelve year olds overrunning the place are offended. I'm almost glad that this was my last year.
-Seamus ('04.1 '05.1 '06.1)
They played Beware of the Boys -Punjabi MC at every dance Session 1 Carlisle '06 (they only played Tunak Tunak Tun once and many other canon songs only once all session) maybe Beware of the Boys is gona make canon.
-Ram (lancaster '05.1 carlisle '06.1)
Hey, you guys kinda completely forgot JHU's cannon -Wes (Baltimore '05.1 '06.1)
What's that song that the only I part of which I can remember is "45?" -->It's called Brimful of Asha by Cornershop. The better version, also the one played at the dances, is the Fatboy Slim Remix. - Gabe (Saratoga '05.1 Carlisle '06.2
They also played Gasoline by Daddy Yankee at every dance, along with Barbie girl by Aqua. I doubt they're cannon or ever will be, but I thought I'd throw that out there. -Rachel (HPU '05.2 Carlisle '06.1)
Brown Eyed Girl is more of a Saint Mary's thing cause there never was a Shag Dancing class at Carlisle, but they played it all the time at SM. - Mike (Stanford '04.1 Saint Marys '05.2 Carlisle '06.2)
Rachel, just so you know, Barbie Girl IS Canon...
I don't know why It's Raining Men is on there as not dead Canon, I went both sessions at Carlisle, 2006 and never heard it. - Danny (Carlisle '06 .1 and .2)
