I had teachers in high school who used pop music lyrics to introduce students to poetry.

"Hello darkness my old friend ...."
"The silver thorn of bloody rose lies crushed and broken on the virgin snow ..."

Stuff like that.

Of course I also had to memorize

"Whan that april with his shooreth snooteth and bathest every snitchell with his sweech liquor than longeth folk to go on pilgrimages" or however the hell it went.
