Prom is one of the most significant events from the years in high school. The music played at prom may stick with you for a lifetime. This is a list of 10 of the hottest songs for making those memories in 2007. A few great suggestions from Daniel Wolfe helped round out the list.
1. Rascal Flatts - My Wish

Rascal Flatts music is perfect for a prom. Unlike last year's "What Hurts the Most," this year "My Wish" adds a tremendously upbeat tone. It also works well for an overall prom theme.
2. Hellogoodbye - Here (In Your Arms)

Hellogoodbye should be peaking near the top of the pop charts as many proms are taking place this year. The song is ultra-romantic good time electro dance-pop.
3. Justin Timberlake featuring T.I. - My Love

Justin Timberlake's hot dance tune is also just sentimental enough to fit the most romantic evening of the spring.
4. Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

Snow Patrol's breakthrough pop hit was one of the very best love songs of 2006, and it is perfect for a prom slow dance.
5. Temptations - My Girl

Turn back the clock to bring in some "sunshine on a cloudy day" with one of the top pop-soul vocal groups of all time.
6. Nickelback - Far Away

Don't be surprised if this Nickelback slow dance generates a few tears as dancers think about the prospect of separating for summer or for longer if their high school years are coming to an end.
7. Unk - Walk It Out

Every prom needs a group dance-a-long. Unk's hit "Walk It Out" is a worthy successor to Dem Franchize Boys' "Lean Wit It, Rock Wit It."
8. Fall Out Boy - This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race

A prom sing-a-long...or more like a group chant. Fall Out Boy's delivery of a rock-soul chant with a punkish slam section should bring the crowd to life.
9. RBD - Tu Amor

RBD, the Mexican pop superstars, will add a touch of Latin to the romantic mood at the prom.
10. Rob Thomas - Ever the Same

Another opportunity to slow things down and leave dancers gazing in each others' eyes as they sing along with Rob Thomas
