Description
" Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young ", commonly known by the title " Wear Sunscreen ", is an essay written as a hypothetical commencement speech by columnist Mary Schmich, originally published in June 1997 in the Chicago Tribune. The essay, giving various pieces of advice on how to live a happier life and avoid common frustrations, spread massively via viral email, is often erroneously described as a commencement speech given by author Kurt Vonnegut at MIT.
The essay became the basis for a successful spoken word song released in 1997 by Baz Luhrmann, " Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen) ", also known as " The Sunscreen Song ". The song reached number one in Ireland and the United Kingdom and inspired numerous parodies.
