There's nothing quite like reminiscing on good times and High School for many of us is or was, chock full of profound experiences that both shape us and stay in our hearts for the rest of our lives. We're talking everything from first kisses, first loves and those gruelling first heartbreaks to dear friendships, some of which persevere long after we've left the school yard.
That's why we decided to spotlight some of the greatest hits that dominated the charts when our Idols were in high schoool. Of course, that's not too long ago because we've got some very young hopefuls in our ranks so they'll also be singing high school hits from back in the day which have been specially chosen by their loved ones. It's a night that promises to be emotional and uplifting. Here's what we're turning back the clock to come Sunday at 5pm.
