I KNEW I wasn't the only one who did that! REMEMBER was the one I liked - and try to be forced to sing it with your sister, who was singing a black and gold Theta version at the same time....hmmm. I should ask my dd if they have retired that one yet. My mom thought that was so special. I guess she thought if I couldn't be a Theta (they didn't have a chapter where I went to college), then AOII must be OK if they used the same song. Yep, thats what I based it all on, lol.

I have the same problem with that song. I was a member of Rainbow girls (a masonic youth org.) and we have a version of that song... I've frequently used the wrong version for the organization I'm at an event for. :p :o

Gamma Phi Beta has a song called Remember, too. Is it the same song? It's often used at Pref.

Let's see . . ."Consider Yourself" from OLIVER! would be good . . . we always did a version of George M.Cohen's "H-A-R-R-I-G-A-N", which was from one of his Broadway musicals (G-A-double M - A , P-H-I spells Gamma Phi. Proud of all the loyalty that's in me - wish I had a pin so big it hid me, G-A-double M - A, P-H-I you see, it's a name, grown to fame, since it to our campus came, Gamma Phi for me!) His song "Mary" could be adapted, too.
I think "I joined the circus" from "Barnum" could easily be adapted ( I joined (NAME OF SORORITY) like I wanted to, when I was a kid, climbed aboard that great bandwagon and you bet your life I'm glad I did!) - OH, and "The colors of my life" from the same musical. I think I'm too old - all the Broadway songs I can think of the PNMs probably don't even know.
I love "Popular" from Wicked as a Gamma Phi song, but don't think it really suitable for rush (Gamma Phi - you're gonna be Gamma Phi! . . .but it celebrates the superficial, which of course is not what its all about(!) )
I'm just really no help at all, am I? Oh well . . .

zta has a song entitled, "remember." could we all be singing the same song??

Maybe . . . here's our version:
Remember . . .Gamma Phi Beta
Remember . . .when you're away
Remember . . .the friends you've made here
and don't forget to come back someday.
Remember the pink carnation
the crescent in the sky
and keep truly ever with you
the memory of Gamma Phi
(we'll remember youuuuuuuuuuu)

Our version of Remember is

Remem-mem, remem-mem-mem-ber
AOII, sisters forever
Laughing, singing, doing whatever
We have fun when we’re together
Remem-mem, remem-mem-mem-ber
AOII sisters forever
Laughing singin’, doing whatever
We have fun when we’re together in AOII!

Um, it's actually "Sweet Home, Kappa Gamma!" :)

We used to sing a version of that song at summer camp!

We have a version of that song. It's kinda like "the song doesn't end" :)

swtxbelle,

we have the same "remember song"-when i read your words, i knew that the tune had to be the same! our words are:

remember, the times you've had here,
remember when you're away,
remember, the friends you've made here,
and don't forget to come back some day,
remember, the sheild of Themis,
the gray and turquoise blue,
for you girl, belong to zeta,
and zeta, belongs to you.

a great song to sing for senior send off.

And I have to assume that if chapters are using it for preference they are cutting the part about asking forgiveness from each other for wrongdoings... I mean, it's a nice song and all, but I agree that it's not appropriate for prefs.

OK, I had a glass or two of wine by now, remember I am WAY older than the legal age :eek:

"remember the friends you made here
remember when you're away
remember the fun you've had here
and don't forget to come back someday

and then....something... I DON'T remember, LOL

but it ends with

because you belong to AOPi, dear, and AOPi belongs to you....

And that's it. I forgot the rest.

okay, so atleast gamma phi beta, alpha omicron pi and zeta tau alpha have the same "remember" song, but do any others?

can you imagine if all the sororities that have that song sang it as an exit song during prefs?that would make for some very confused pnms, i'll bet!!

I know A LOT of groups use Linger as their exit song for Prefs.
