AL wants songs about school, teachers and learning. Expect Van Halen and the Ramones.

I think Lulu's a given (it fills the '60s quota for August!  ;) ). Supertramp... we'll see.

Impressive suggestion list: everything from ABBA's "When I Kissed the Teacher" to the Smiths' "Headmaster Ritual". Now THAT'S variety!

Frankly if TSWL does show up I hope it is the Lulu original and not the Merchant/Stipe remake that would fit more in the preferred vintage.

I know it's kind of obvious, but "Teach Your Children" is nice.
