A Definitive Ranking Of The "High School Musical" Songs

A Definitive Ranking Of The "High School Musical" Songs
Fanpop

"High School Musical" came out 12 years ago in 2006. Yeah, 12 years ago. Since then, it has been a constant staple in my throwback playlists.

But we all know some of the songs are better than others, and one of the movies is the best out of all three. I tend to butt heads with friends over which songs are the best, and now I am settling it once and for all.

1. "Breaking Free"

The end all, be all. I will scream this at the top of my lungs whenever it comes on.

2. "Start of Something New"

The song that started it all, also a bop if there ever was one.

3. "When There Was Me and You"

If you didn't dramatically sing this to yourself when you were younger, you're lying.

4. "Get'cha Head in the Game"

The irony of the song makes it that much better. You don't want your basketball team to know you love singing, so you sing an entire song about it at basketball practice with your team singing backup. Makes perfect sense.

5. "What I've Been Looking For" (Sharpay/Ryan or Troy/Gabriella)

The Sharpay and Ryan version was a little incesty, so that's why it's #5.

6. "We're All in this Together"

It's a great song but after the first chorus, I'm over it. It's the best cumulative song for the movie, but it ends the movie on a high note and that's about it.

7. "Stick to the Status Quo"

This is only because the song should have been an anthem for empowerment. But Sharpay comes in and ruins it all with her tyranny.

8. "Bop to the Top"

I will be 110% honest, this is the last one because I absolutely hated the song as a child solely. Ryan and Sharpay were trying to ruin Troy and Gabriella's lives; no reason other than that.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
