If school has started and the beginning of the academic year is approaching, let's imagine that we go to school too. Okay, just a little bit to remember the music we were listening to then. Because today's challenge is to tell me:

A song that reminds you of the time you were at school.

My first thought goes to Coolio's Gangstas Paradise , from 1995, a song I sang in chorus with all my schoolmates while I was on the bus on my way to France. The song is actually based on the song Pastime Paradise by Stevie Wonder, which forced Coolio to change the lyrics several times, in order to give him the approval to release a song based on his song. But in the end it all turned out right, the song appeared on the soundtrack of the movie Dangerous Minds , won the Grammy Award for Best Act Rap Solo , and Wonder and Coolio even did a duet at the Billboard Music Award, where Gangstas Paradise won the award forSong of the Year.

Needless to say, the song reached all the charts around the world. For example, for 22 years, Gangstas Paradise held the record for the song that lasted the most in 1st place in the Australian charts, surpassing even Eminem. It was only surpassed in 2017, when Ed Sheeran appeared in the landscape, with Shape of you .
