Song List for Class of 76 Reunion

Click here to go to the Montville Township High School Class of 1976 Fiftieth Reunion web page.

We've kicked around more than 100 suggestions and came up with this list. Thanks to all sho contributed! One rule we followed is that songs recorded in 1977 or later are ineligible.  If you have any further suggestions please send them in.  Obviously we can't play them all, but we will create a full play list on Apple Music and/or Spotify for your enjoyment before, during and after the reunion on August 8th, 2026.
