Songs that say "good bye" or "good riddance"

Postby Footy Chick » Fri Apr 27, 2012 12:39 pm

Bit of a weird one I know.....

We're getting a whole brand new (windows based) insurance computer system at work at 2pm today and saying goodbye to our old DOS based system.

So we're trying to come up with a songlist that best reflects how we all feel about something we're glad to get rid of.


So far we've got the obvious ones like"

Am I ever gonna see your face again - The Angels
Goodbye, Farewell - The Von Trapp Kids
The Final Countdown - Europe
Good Riddance - Green Day

All suggestions welcome :D

I could have googled - but most of those are soppy "sorry your gone" songs.

Clearly you didn't read my post correctly ;)

Just after a bit of audience participation FFS :lol:

Just been through a similar role out.

There needs to be a song written : "Sure, we spent all this ******* money on this whizz bang ******* system but at least the DOS based program worked and no **** has been here to show me how to use this one properly although I'm sure if someone did I wouldn't hate it so ******* much."

Knowing where FC works and having worked there previously in the IS department, all I can say is good luck with that system changeover!
